WP:SDEL

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Schools. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Schools|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Schools. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Archived discussions (starting from September 2007) may be found at:

Primary and secondary schools

Four-Forest Bilingual International School

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I have carried out WP:BEFORE for this article about a school in Switzerland, and cannot find information or references to add. No reliable, independent secondary sources have covered it as far as I can establish. It has been tagged with notability concerns since November last year. No obvious redirect target. It was established in 2007, so part of the problem may just be lack of time for it to become notable. The article was created in 2008, by an SPA, FF-School (talk · contribs). Tacyarg (talk) 23:41, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Education, Schools, and Switzerland. Tacyarg (talk) 23:41, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Uplift Heights Preparatory

I found nothing that shows the notability of this school. SL93 (talk) 18:17, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Schools and Texas. SL93 (talk) 18:18, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:NSCHOOL, nothing better to be found on web search than the non - RS source on the article. No good redirect target. 4.37.252.50 (talk) 19:41, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This school does actually have WP:SIGCOV in Dallas Morning News, other local news, but it's a WP:BRANCH of a larger organization, requiring sources beyond the local DFW area, and that larger organization doesn't have its own page so it's not a valid redirect or merger target.

Heritage Academy High school

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable school, none of the sources cited contributes anything towards notability, and a BEFORE search finds nothing beyond the usual directory listings, social media, etc. Fails WP:GNG / WP:ORG with flying colours. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:10, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Searched for sources with in-depth coverage to establish notability but did not find any. I agree with the nominator; it fails WP:GNG. GrabUp - Talk 16:53, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Garh Raipur Girls' High School (HS)

Seems very run-of-the-mill. Sources are all primary/government databases. No evidence of meeting WP:NORG * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 17:09, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have fixed the issue. Please close this discussion. Arijit Kisku (talk) 07:19, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sources updated,please remove afd. Arijit Kisku (talk) 00:12, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Independent sources has been added. Please close this discussion.Arijit Kisku (talk) 07:21, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I have searched for sources and not found any. The current sources are not good enough. They are all primary, apart from possibly the teachers' journal, which I can't access. Leaning redirect to Raipur, Bankura#Education, but will wait to see if anyone else can find reliable secondary sources. Tacyarg (talk) 18:20, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Attached more independent sources. They are not government directories or any primary sources.They ate independet sources,so I request you to close the deletion discussion page. Arijit Kisku (talk) 07:55, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for adding two more sources. They are still not reliable sources, though. This is a request to tender for building works. It is a primary source. I'm not entirely sure what this is, as a pop-up ad I can't remove blocks part of the screen for me, but it looks like some sort of school listing, probably commercial. Do you know if the school has been covered in any off-line sources - books about the history of the area, memoirs of staff or people who attended? As Pppery said in the nomination, so far all we have are primary or commercial sources, nothing independent or reliable that shows notability. Can you access the teachers' journal - do you know what that says about the school? Typically, deletion discussions run for at least 7 days, so this is unlikely to be closed before then, so that other editors can comment. Tacyarg (talk) 11:42, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have access to teachers' journal, but i can confirm, it's on page number 96, there is a teachers' information who was associated with the school. Arijit Kisku (talk) 15:30, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result was soft delete‎. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mahatma Gandhi International School, Ahmedabad

Delete Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NSCHOOL The sources are almost entirely PR-based or non-independent. No actual in-depth coverage in reliable secondary sources, just press releases and blog posts. Wikilover3509 (talk) 13:33, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete possible WP:PROMO and fails WP:ORG. LibStar (talk) 09:26, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete a second decent source would change this, but I couldn't find one; though it's a difficult search term. Ping me if something turns up! Nfitz (talk) 15:26, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment- I found this might be notable if deep search is carried out [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] Wasilatlovekesy (talk) 17:33, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- All of these sources are generically about colleges in Canada, not a specific college in Vancouver. Walsh90210 (talk) 17:36, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete this is a difficult search term and I'm not confident there aren't sources. But all I could find was "study abroad" sites like [6] and [7], which don't contribute to notability. Walsh90210 (talk) 17:42, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Only a handful of WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS and no WP:SIGCOV in WP:SIRS to qualify under WP:NORG. As for the first commenter above, the "endless passing mentions" do not qualify the subject as notable. They simply validate that the subject exists.
