Celeryville Christian School

Previously speedy-tagged under WP:CSD#A7 (non-notable). Speedy deletion disputed on talk page. Deletion of school articles is rarely uncontroversial, which suggests AFD-path should be taken rather than CSD-path. User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:00, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. CSD contest shows no sign of notability, just WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS arguments. Giggy _U^CP 01:31, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No assertion of notability, reads like a directory entry. Rackabello 01:44, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment You're right Ceyockey, I've been told by several admins that articles on schools are inherently not CSD criteria. I haven't been able to find an actual Wikipedia policy supporting this, but this seems to be the predominant practice. I've attempted to speedy several articles on schools that said little more than ____________ is a school or were blatantly promotional and their CSD's were all declined. Its interesting as I've nominated articles on organizations other than schools with the exact same problems (i.e. ___________ is a club or were clearly promotional) and these were speedily deleted without discussion.

  - Comment WP:CSD is quite specific on what articles may be deleted using the process, and quite clear that controversial deletions should go to AFD. Schools are not listed under A7 as one of the things subject to speedy, and as the nom has noted they are rarely uncontroversially deleted. --Dhartung | Talk 06:21, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOT#DIRECTORY - Not the place to keep schools that have no established notability Corpx 02:59, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete due to lack of notability attributed using independent sources. --Dhartung | Talk 06:21, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
comment I am not normally a fan of any article on elementary and junior high articles on their face, but I believe a 77 year old school will have some notability somewhere, and am glad this was not speedied. In the case of schools, I just think speedying is way too hasty. Good night all. Chris 06:47, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

comment One of the things I am, really, actually, and will update soon, is the extensive and rich history of Celeryville Christian School. A lot can, and has, happened in 77 years to this school. I do realize all these arguments for keeping it an encyclopedia and not a directory, and if you really want to, I have no power to stop you. But does simply having notable alumni or being the scene of a majors news story give it notability? Peace. - Xexeter Talk 01:09 24 July 2007
