Talk:Orana Catholic Primary School

Deleted, Undeleted

It really saddens me to think about the trouble I had to go through to keep this article on Wikipedia. Somebody really needs to notify all the Administrators to read the rules properly. I'm told the article breaks CSD A7. I read it. It says "An article about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (e.g. band, club, company, etc., except schools), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant. This is distinct from verifiability and reliability of sources, and is a lower standard than notability." Notice except schools? Quite Pathetic - one look at the title - PRIMARY SCHOOL. Then I'm told that is breaking CSD A3. Once again, I look at the policy. "consisting only of external links, category tags and "see also" sections, a rephrasing of the title, attempts to correspond with the person or group named by its title," One sentence for that claim: Look at the article. It HAS content. Look at the history section. Look at the infobox. I really think Administrators should be chosen more carefully. Now, one of them will probably delete this. --Thompson.matthew (talk) 01:33, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

The problem is that the article completely fails notability. It is a recently established primary school (in a historical context), and its entire sourcing is from the school's website which fails WP:PRIMARY - an article needs significant coverage in independent reliable secondary sources under WP:GNG. Generally it's rare for primary schools to meet the notability threshold unless there's been a murder there or something and has captured the state's attention. I have redirected it to the suburb it's in, per the usual convention for schools which do not establish this standard. Orderinchaos 01:14, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

I am really getting sick of this... Thompson.matthew (talk) 14:17, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
