This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was delete.

I count 14 clear delete votes, 3 merge and 4 keep as is (with one vote by a troll ignored). Since Riffsyphon1024 was bold and merged the material, I will preserve the attribution history in the receiving article by cut-and-paste. Rossami (talk) 23:23, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Mt. Ararat Middle School[edit]

Found this from our {{unencyclopedic}} department. A non-notable middle school. jni 10:00, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep It's a school. Philip 11:57, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge anything relevant with the appropriate geographical article (Topsham (town), Maine?). What is currently here isn't notable, significant, influential, encyclopedic or useful (if you want the phone number, get out the yellow pages). Average Earthman 13:46, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. It's a school. Gtabary 16:29, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)      ( Seriously: "Mount Ararat Middle School" -> 185 hits "Mt Ararat Middle School" -> 758 hits. That is why it's non notable yest. And no, because something is a true fact does not make it necessarily a legitimate article topic. Gtabary 16:29, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not notable. Jayjg | (Talk) 19:34, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Advertising. Xezbeth 22:01, Jan 27, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Wrong side of the line. Wile E. Heresiarch 00:39, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • School. Keep, obviously. --Centauri 02:13, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I'm willing to tolerate articles about schools. This, however, is not an article. At best, it's an external link plus a half-literate, POV rant. —Korath (Talk) 03:17, Jan 28, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, obviously. Gamaliel 04:03, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge and Cleanup with Topsham, Maine. Also the phone number and address is unnecessary. Also needs numerous spelling corrections and NPOV. Other than that, it's crap. Riffsyphon1024 20:38, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
I have just merged it into Topsham, Maine. Riffsyphon1024 20:42, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete I'm not a fan of deleting pages because they are schools.... but there isn't anything here really... Weaponofmassinstruction 00:40, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Even has references - David Gerard 22:44, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete or merge/redir to Maine School Administrative District 75. Niteowlneils 01:01, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and move to Mount Ararat Middle School. GRider\talk 18:19, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I fail to see how, say, a school is inherently notable for some people, but a nightclub is not. And has anyone noted how low-quality most of these articles are? Lacrimosus 20:22, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • I have noticed. Many times. *sigh* Edeans 07:38, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Notability not established. Indrian 23:45, Jan 31, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not just schoolcruft, but promotion to boot. Edeans 07:37, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect to Topsham (town), Maine as suggested by Average Earthman. —RaD Man (talk) 10:15, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. No brainer HowardB 13:27, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Middle schools are not inherently notable, and there isn't anything worthy of the name "article" here anyway. Isomorphic 22:46, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • keep. school. Yuckfoo 18:53, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
