The result was keep. High schools are generally notable, and several editors seem to agree that the article can be expanded with new sources. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 16:37, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Summit School (Queens, New York)[edit]

It is not a notable special school. Article makes no claim of notability for its subject. --Alchaenist (talk) 16:34, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I found references pertaining to individuals who were in some way associated with the school, but I could find nothing that asserted the notability of the school itself. -- Scjessey (talk) 16:48, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for the reasons noted by TerriersFan. -- DS1953 ^talk 00:38, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep high schools are notable Broadwayfan15 (talk) 16:13, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Schools get the benefit of the doubt that they are notable unless proven otherwise. Scjessey points out the lack of sources in the article. I looked at the article, and it's been tagged requesting more sources for 18 months. That's plenty of time to have found them, if they were out there. —C.Fred (talk) 16:30, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Based on availability of sources on the school for an article that would greatly benefit from expansion. Alansohn (talk) 04:51, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - C.Fred is correct that schools get the benefit of the doubt on notability. However, the length of time it has been tagged for sources is irrelevant, since Wikipedia does not impose time limits. Rlendog (talk) 21:23, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
