Original Article[edit]

Glendale High School is located in Springfield Missouri. The mascot is a falcon.

Nomination Criteria[edit]

A1 No context. Very short articles lacking sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. Example: "He is a funny man with a red car. He makes people laugh." Context is different from content, treated in A3, below.

Survey Comments[edit]

Deletion Option
Common rationale Count
  • It should be noted that the "don't delete schools 'cuz they're controversial" argument only comes into play for A7, not all CSD.
  • Clear context - school is clearly subject of article
  • Borderline though, if someone did complain over a speedy deletion, I would just recommend recreation over undeletion.
  • Disagree with deletion. Would take no more than 5 minutes for any admin (indeed any user) to make a perfectly acceptable stub - plenty of info on google.
  • Does not meet A1 at all; I would redirect to city article.
  • Wouldn't send it to prod or AFD; wikify and add a school stub tag
  • there is enough context to identify the subject, and there is likely enough information to write a bigger article.
  • Disagree with deletion, let alone speedying. Assuming the school exists, this is easily expandable
  • probably not notable, but the inclusionists will murder you if you speedy a school
  • Short article but established sufficient context.
  • While I wouldn't argue much if it was deleted under this criterion, it's not quite under the criteria.
  • Remove speedy, schools should go to AfD really (though primary schools can be redirected to school district)
  • prod, in this case, unless more is added
  • Most likely would redirect to district page
  • Take the time to create a proper stub. Just need to wikilink city and provide URL of school or school system web page and you've got a passable stub. If nonexistent then G3/obvious hoax applies, but check for obscure private schools before G3ing.
  • Has plenty of context. High Schools are generally deemed notable.
  • High schools are generally held to be notable at AfD. Presuming this is a verifiable school, it should probably be kept.
  • enough context to locate

Balloonman's analysis[edit]

A1 is clearly incorrect. You can immediately tell what school and what city you are talking about. Schools are generally not subject to speedy deletion because their deletion (particularly at the HS/College level) is controversial. At most a prod, but in all reality, this could possibly be left alone!
