California State Normal School

Repeats information found on both San Jose State University and California State University articles. No notability aside from now being SJSU, and a different name shouldn't be a sole reason to have a separate article. Last paragraph also suggests it is trying to promote the obscure agenda to rename the school. Recommendation to merge any new information in the article to the SJSU and CSU articles, and either delete article or redirect to San Jose State University since it is just a former name of the institution.

• Redirect to San Jose State University. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 07:53, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect per above, merge if necessary. -- H·G (/_works) 08:06, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment I pulled the "merge" recommendation upon checking the articles; there's nothing new in the article in question aside from the paragraphs promoting renaming SJSU (which have no place in Wiki). Still up for deletion or redirect, though. NeoChaosX 08:48, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Redirect per nom. Redundant article covered fully under San José State University, so no need to merge. --Satori Son 19:38, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment This article SHOULD NOT BE DELETED. It is not just about "SJSU" or the CSU, it is about the entire California State Normal School system. It contains information and images that are not included in either the SJSU or CSU articles. One of the reasons for creating and maintaining this article is to combat the "San Jose State" historical revisionism that has attempted to wipe the California State Normal School from the pages of history. This article is also being expanded upon on a weekly basis. The main proponent of deleting this article, "NeoChaosX" is a self-avowed "hacker" and recognized Misplaced Pages vandal who have repeatedly vandalized this article and others, to advance his own anti-CSU political agenda. He deleted this article, and now that that has failed, is attempting to have the article deleted to help suppress accurate California, CSU, SJSU history. Michaelch7 08:48, 13 July 2006 (UTC).
  • Comment All I did previously was try and have the article redirect to San Jose State University, not delete it. The article has redundant information and has nothing notable that would warrant a seperate article. I have nominated the article for those reasons, as well as being advertisement and promotion for your agenda, which is something Misplaced Pages is not. NeoChaosX 04:24, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment It is interesting to note that the so-called "promotion" in this article, an inaccurate reference to an inaccurate article, was included in this article by someone other than the author (but has now been corrected). Also, a part of the discussion regarding this article, in which NeoChaosX admitted to vandalizing this article, and apologized for it, has now been deleted. This fits the pattern of NeoChaosX's deletion and vandalism of historically accurate entries and articles, simply because they do not comport with his preferred (but historically inaccurate) views. This is exactly the type of "San Jose State" historical inaccuracy and revisionism this California State Normal School article is meant to combat. The stakes are high: historical accuracy and preservation of California State University history in the face of brute "San Jose State" revisionism. Moreover, NeoChaosX spurious claims that this article simply repeats content in the SJSU and CSU articles is self-serving nonsense, as NeoChaosX himself has repeatedly vandalized and removed many accurate references to California State Normal School and California State University history in those articles.
