Cannot find anything notable online about the school (which has 7000 students and 500 staff). Most online articles repeat the existing Wikipedia wording which reads like an advertisement. The only exception I can find is Deloitte - who say the school offers classes to international students (https://www2.deloitte.com/content/dam/Deloitte/at/Documents/Tax/Chinese%20Services%20Group/kr_cbc_investment_henan-zhengzhou_en_201612.pdf) Newhaven lad (talk) 17:47, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Schools, which says:

    All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both. For-profit educational organizations and institutions are considered commercial organizations and must satisfy those criteria. (See also WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES)

  • Keep per the sources found by User:Cunard. I'm puzzled by User:Bearian's comment – we have articles about many other secondary schools, and the fact that this is a secondary school doesn't seem like a reason for deleting the article. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 07:30, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Probably delete - I accept that the notability of schools is still a contested area and we still need clarity on how we are making AfD decisions. However following this RfC the consensus is that secondary schools need to show they meet the same notability standards as other organisations. Simply WP:ROUTINE coverage and regurgitated press releases are not enough. Cunard has supplied a blizzard of such sources in their usual way (I'm not criticising, having sources to discuss at AfD is better than no sources) but in my opinion these are simply statements that all schools everywhere aim to get in local newspaper coverage. I appreciate it is an example of systematic bias, but unless we see significant and independent coverage in a reliable source (which as far as I'm concerned essentially means pages in a book or a long press article) I'm !voting delete.

I do not consider these newspaper articles to be "close to an event" or "written by people who are directly involved".

  • Comment: JMWt's statement that "secondary schools need to show they meet the same notability standards as other organisations" is an inaccurate reading of the guideline. Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Schools says:

    All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both. For-profit educational organizations and institutions are considered commercial organizations and must satisfy those criteria. (See also WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES)

    The guideline says that for non-profit schools like Zhengzhou No. 47 Middle School, passing Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline is sufficient. There is no need for the school to also pass Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Primary criteria.

    JMWt's statement that schools have to receive "pages in a book or a long press article" is a much higher bar than what the guideline requires and is contradicted by Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which defines significant coverage like this:

    "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.

    Bearian wrote, "One of thousands of similar schools. Fails GNG." This comment fails to explain why the school "fails GNG". That this school is like "one of thousands of similar schools" is not a policy-based reason for deletion. And calling this school run-of-the-mill is false because the school was designated an exemplar senior high school [zh] in July 2003. From this book published by Springer Nature (which is licensed under https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/):

    Thus, the Chinese government had to develop a project of Key High School that classified a part of schools as key schools while others as ordinary schools in order to concentrate limited resources on quality assurance in key schools. In 1953, 194 high schools of the country were named as Key High Schools. 194 schools were a very small portion (4.4%) of the large number of high schools in China (Li, 2003, p. 276). According to related policy, the Key High Schools were given priority in funding, human resource, school facilities, and selection of students. By extraordinary input, the Key High Schools had constantly improved the quality of their teaching and learning and prepared a number of excellent graduates for the country since then (Feng, 2007). Historically, the project of Key High School made a great contribution to prepare quality graduates of senior high schools for China's universities and colleges as well as for the country's industry and agriculture by concentrating limited resources during 1950s and 1960s. However, with the increasing demand for senior high school education in the early 1990s, the issue of expanding the scale of senior high school education was put on the agenda of Chinese government. The State Council called on building up 1000 high quality senior high schools throughout the country in its RHD in 1994, Opinions of State Council on carrying out "Compendium for China's educational reform and development (State Council, 1994). In this RHD, the old name Key High School was replaced by a new name Exemplar Senior High School (hereafter called "ESHS").

  • Comment. Out of the 9 sources put up by Cunard above, 5 are from Dahe Daily, which amounts to a single source i.e. same publisher. Of the others, source 1 is brief but OK. Source 3 is about a teacher; the school is only mentioned. Sources 4 & 5 look like reports on press releases put out by the school — doubtful independence and no editorial analysis or commentary. Basically, there's coverage of the school in Dahe Daily and source 1, but this doesn't satisfy the multiple, independent requirement of GNG; multiple meaning 3 or more independent reliable sources. Rupples (talk) 02:58, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline says, "There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected."

      "multiple meaning 3 or more independent reliable sources" is inaccurate. wikt:multiple says: "More than one". Merriam-Webster says, "consisting of, including, or involving more than one". Cambridge Dictionary says, "having more than one and usually several of something".

      I consider sources 4 and 5 to be sufficiently independent to meet Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which says:

      "Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent.

      The sources are bylined and are not "works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it". Source 4 contains the reporter's observations of a school lecture, while source 5 contains the journalist's reporting on the new East Campus expansion. Editors could try to make the argument that sources 4 and 5 do not meet the "intellectual independence" requirement of Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Independent sources, but Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline has no such requirement. As a non-profit school, Zhengzhou No. 47 Middle School needs to meet only Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.

      Cunard (talk) 04:02, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      I acknowledge your explanation over how you see the guidelines, but it is but one interpretation, albeit a valid one. "Multiple" could mean just two sources and could amount to satisfying significant coverage. I might agree with this if source 1 offered more indepth coverage than half a dozen short sentences on the school. I assess the sources to decide what content can be employed in writing an encyclopedic article and evaluate whether there's enough such material. I'm not seeing sufficient depth in the sources, so to my thinking the GNG is not satisfied. The only reason I've held back from !voting delete is because of uncertainty over whether the designation "exemplar high school" makes the school notable, when compared with the 15,000 or so other senior high schools in China.

  • Comment on additional 3 sources provided by Cunard. The first is helpful as it shows international links which may raise the school above 'run of the mill' criticism. The tennis one doesn't help with notability — it's the sort of 'research' I've seen with Indonesian schools on Google Scholar — as the report itself concludes "the effect on health is obvious". The third is useful, but again brief, if that's all there is. GNG coverage borderline, but there's suggestions the school is notable. Good work by Cunard finding all these sources.

    • Thank you for reviewing the sources. The third source is three pages long, and the quote is from the abstract. Cunard (talk) 06:19, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. It's unfortunate there's access restrictions on the architectural design of the school (source 3 Bai, Jiong ). It is 3 pages in length and appears to be focussed on the school. In my view when combined with the other sources there is now just about enough to take this over the line in respect of the significant coverage requirement of the GNG.
