Need Help with Nord Anglia Education

[edit]

This corporation has, for quite some time, engaged in serious promotional editing and COI violations the articles related to their schools are stuffed with press releases and few independent sources. I need some help figuring out what articles get kept per notability and which get folded into the article on NAE itself. There probably needs to be a "list of NAE schools" article, given the way things are panning out. Allan Nonymous (talk) 14:36, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article Plano Christian Academy has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Small defunct school. May have closed in 2010 after just 7 years. No 3rd party sources to show enduring notability.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Has anyone a view on this article - specifically, the number of non-notable pupils mentioned? Wondering about taking out all names. Tacyarg (talk) 12:33, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Goodyear High School

[edit]

Could someone from WP:SCHOOLS take a look at Goodyear High School and assess it? It's a newly created article about a school that seems to be still in the process of being built; so, this might be a case of WP:TOOSOON. In addition, the creator has also declared they have a COI with respect to the school because they went to school in the same school district and live in the area. FWIW, that seems a pretty minor COI to me, and the school's Wikipedia notability (or lack thereof) is more of a concern. Perhaps the thing to do here if the school's Wikipedia notability is questionable would be to redirect the article to Agua Fria Union High School District#High schools until a better claim for Wikipedia notability can be made. -- Marchjuly (talk) 10:55, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Marchjuly, I've reviewed the sourcing, and it's in the marginal pass range. There are 2 in-depth West Valley News articles, a report by the NBC affiliate 12News, a WESTMARC article which appears to be press release ("Special to Independent Newsmedia"), and a passing mention about the school bond issue on the KJZZ Phoenix FM station webpage. The remainder are primary sources from Agua Fria High School District. I searched newspapers.com, but found only references to Goodyear Millennium High School. There will no doubt be additional news stories as the construction progresses. Perhaps the intermediate solution should be to draftify, since this article is otherwise well-written. — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 17:45, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
