Is there really a need for an article about some random teacher's history course? ( fi ) 02:13, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete The course itself is not notable enough for its own article, as it appears to be an average high school course, plus course descriptions (which is all this article really is) fail WP:NOTGUIDE. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 02:16, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep but really this should be converted to be an outline of what is taught in a second semester high school world history class. That would make it somewhat useful. I don't think that WP:NOTGUIDE applies here. --Mblumber (talk) 02:20, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. I think that the article suggested immediately above would fail as original research, not to mention on the lack of reliable sources.
- Comment: You don't think that there have been articles written about what to teach in a high school world history class? Schools don't just make this stuff up, they write their curriculum based upon guidelines from their district, which in turn bases it on criteria handed down by one of the regional High School accreditation organizations. --Mblumber (talk) 02:30, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment; Quite right, I agree, although your suggestion appears to be about United States schools and it would be difficult to integrate the views of all other countries. I do suggest, though, that the syllabus for Mr. Ian Cheney's approach to World History II at Waterford High School in Waterford, Connencticut is an attempt to use Wikipedia as a webhost and that Waterford High School needs to host its own syllabi.
