Unremarkable local middle school in a neighbourhood of a mid-sized British Columbia municipality. As written, fails WP:NOTE and Google searches for its name produce only trite, trivial news items on one-time school events or renovations, and directory listings. In short, no WP:SIG.

Redirect: to School District 23 Central Okanagan. Nothing to merge when the article is unreferenced. SL93 (talk) 21:07, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
SL93, True, but what's the policy on leaving behind redirects for non-notable schools (that is, having the redirect redirect to the school district)? Doug Mehus (talk) 21:11, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Dmehus I'm not aware of such a policy, but Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A S Matheson Elementary School was ultimately only redirected to School District 23 Central Okanagan. SL93 (talk) 21:12, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
SL93, Thanks...Are you aware of an easy tool to remove the double redirect internal links on the SD23 page? I know Twinkle easily removes links to a certain page. Doug Mehus (talk) 21:23, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know of one. SL93 (talk) 21:27, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
SL93, Okay, thanks. I'll try and do it some time later. Not a huge deal. Likely a low traffic page anyway. Doug Mehus (talk) 21:34, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, point 1. Mind matrix 02:24, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Mindmatrix, Yes, but they're fundamentally not standalone notable, either. No need for a separate page. Doug Mehus (talk) 02:27, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Dmehus I'm not sure I understand your response. I answered the question "what's the policy on leaving behind redirects for non-notable schools", which per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is to redirect to the schoolboard (supporting the previous comment). I'm not at all advocating to retain this article. Mind matrix 02:33, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Mindmatrix, Sorry then. I assumed incorrectly. My bad. I misunderstood the direction you were leaning. Doug Mehus (talk) 02:42, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Blank and redirect to School District 23 Central Okanagan per standard procedure and as outlined in policy. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:46, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
