Miramonte High School[edit]

Since we're voting on a bunch of schools, it seems like this should be included. No claim of notability, and doesn't even have any content other than a table that includes transitory info that will soon be out of date. Niteowlneils 18:33, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. All of these schools are both nonnotable and nonencyclopedic. Indrian 18:40, Oct 24, 2004 (UTC)
    • D My bedroom has more tables than this article. Chris 02:46, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: It's a taxobox! So, is there a WikiSchools project going on behind the scenes, and we're not being told? Seems like it. Geogre 05:11, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Non-notable school. Delete. RickK 23:00, Oct 26, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep - A good school article that has room to expand. --ShaunMacPherson 20:02, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Expand. School. anthony 警告 20:14, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Did the user who nominated this for deletion try expanding it first? It looks like doing so should be possible. Factitious 20:27, Oct 27, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Mark Richards 00:50, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Make a mention in Orinda, California and delete - Skysmith 08:59, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non-notable. --G Rutter 16:23, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Few schools meet the high bar of notability required to be encyclopedic --Improv 20:20, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete NiteOwlNeils said it perfectly. — Bill 22:26, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
    • Actually, NiteOwlNeils said that the article has no content other than a table. That was true when he said it, but has not been the case since yesterday. Please consider the article as it exists before voting on it. Factitious 23:43, Oct 28, 2004 (UTC)

  • No vote. Don't much like the article. If you changed the name of the school to that of some other California high school, nobody would know the difference unless they fact-checked the article. But will not vote to delete, because I appreciate the improvements made and good faith shown by anthony and Factitious. Keeping this article in its present state does no harm to Wikipedia.

  • Keep - this school is actually a bit notable. ugen64 01:34, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. If it's any more notable than the average high school, the article fails to explain how. Dan | Talk 02:12, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. I'm an alum, so of course I'm biased, but Miramonte is actually a relatively notable school, inasmuch as it does quite a lot of things extremely well. However, I am as yet unfamiliar about what degree of notability makes a school worthy of its own entry. I'd be happy to expand the entry if someone could answer that question. --Occultatio 12:57, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    • What degree of notability is necessary depends on who you talk to. According to many of us, all high schools are notable enough. According to many others, nearly no high schools are notable enough. You may want to look at User:Dpbsmith/BEEFSTEW for an idea of the standards of at least one Wikipedian who falls in between these two extremes. anthony 警告 19:30, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)
