- Ashurst Primary School (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
This surely comes into the category of a Non notable primary school? Paste (talk) 14:18, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

- Keep. Verifiable and plenty of independent sources (e.g. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/bsp/hi/education/06/school_tables/primary_schools/html/342_2021.stm) --Oldak Quill 15:10, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- Comment You can find these tables on every single school in the UK, this link has zero impact on whether or not a school is notable.Paste (talk) 18:02, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't make any comments relating to the guideline Wikipedia:Notability. I simply made the point that there are independent, trust-worthy sources available; that the article is verifiable. If you want to talk about notability, I guess evidence for its verifiability has implications for its notability per "A topic is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." (Wikipedia:Notability). --Oldak Quill 18:15, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
- Understood, but the point I am making is that every school in the UK has a page such as the one you highlighted. Indeed I should have thought that every school in the UK can have a page that can verify its existence. I thought that there was general acceptance that for a primary school to have an article it needed to have some evidence of notability and this school clearly does not.Paste (talk) 18:27, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
