Spotsylvania County Public Schools[edit]

Hodge podge of odd bits about the schools, no explanation of the district. Looks as if it's a merge mess. No way is this encyclopedic. Bananaqueen (talk) 23:57, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep - as discussed many times school districts are inherently notable as government bodies and a repository for merging nn schools. TerriersFan (talk) 23:59, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, it *is* a merge mess, due at least in part to my merging of a closed AfD this afternoon and then, while at it, merging the remaining elementary and middle schools that hadn't been redirected already. No doubt that it needs clean up, and I hope to get to it this weekend, but as Terriers said above, school districts are inherently notable and this one appears to have some RS coverage.

Keep, school districts are notable by dint of being local governments, and because we have agreed to redirect oodles of permastub articles about individual schools to them. See WP:SCHOOLS for details. AnteaterZot (talk) 09:50, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Note I've just sourced the overview, it still needs significant expansion about the schools and has been tagged as such. TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 02:06, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
