Kentlake High School
- Kentlake High School (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Delete - I don't think this article reaches any of the standards set in Wikipedia:Notability. The article is about a normal high school with no reason for it having an article. The article has no references. As Wikipedia:Notability states, "it is important to not just consider whether notability is established by the article, but whether it readily could be", and I conclude that it does not. No reason for the article. Alan16 talk 22:24, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Keep - as with all such high schools plenty of sources are available. This school is a significant institution in its community and the way forward is to source and expand the page and certainly not to delete. TerriersFan (talk) 22:37, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Funny how none such sources show up on Google. Schools are organizations and this particular one doesn't meet WP:ORG. (High schools are no more special than any other school.) - Mgm|(talk) 22:43, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - A quick search on Google and most of the pages (apart from the Wikipedia page) are school related sites, which are not reference-able sites. I do not think that it is anywhere near notable to be on Wikipedia. It is just an ordinary high school, with no notable alumini or notable achievements at all. Alan16 talk 22:46, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - certainly these are not school related sites and are RSs. TerriersFan (talk) 22:56, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - They are not school related sites. However they are also almost wholly irrelevant. Alan16 talk 23:02, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - Wow! You have read through and evaluated 357 sources in 6 minutes including those behind paywalls? That takes some doing; it generally takes me 6 minutes to get a single pay per view source!. So what assessment did you make of the web legal case? TerriersFan (talk) 23:20, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - What did I make of it? I saw that it added nothing to the notability of the article. Like the other sources. I didn't read them all - I looked at the ones with most hits, and they are all about irrelevant things. Rather than being a sarcastic moron, can you think of an actual reason to keep the article? Alan16 talk 23:26, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - 'Rather than being a sarcastic moron' is a clear breach of WP:CIVIL. The point I am making is that you made an inaccurate statement 'most of the pages (apart from the Wikipedia page) are school related sites' and an assessment of a substantial number of sources without proper consideration (If you only read the summaries 357 at 1 a second takes some doing). TerriersFan (talk) 23:39, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment - WP:CIVIL: "This policy is not a weapon to use against other contributors. To insist that an editor be sanctioned for an isolated, minor offense... is itself disruptive, and may result in warnings or even blocks if repeated.". And you will find that my statement is correct. Google brings up 19000 results for Kentlake High School. Your link lists 357. Less than 2%. And of the 357 you listed, I have been reading them and can't find any so far that I'd include in any Wiki article. Find a good reason for keeping this article and I'll change from delete to keep. So far you haven't. Alan16 talk 23:53, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- Redirect to school district and merge only material that is verified (rather than verifiable) through INDEPENDENT sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MacGyverMagic (talk • contribs) 22:43, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:NHS. All high schools are notable. TerriersFan's Google News Archive search proves that this school passes WP:ORG.
