*The procedure is the same when it comes to tagging each article with the proper boxes. When adding to the list of Articles for Deletion, you put the first nominated article as the title of the discussion, and then add a short explanation such as "all of these are articles about elementary and middle schools in Suchandsuch County". In some cases, where the articles are related, it's worthwhile. However, it really is a "damned if you do and damned if you don't" situation. Invariably, if you group several articles together, someone will say "each of these should be nominated individually", so you get complaints either way. I go by the ''Garden Party'' philosophy, as Ricky Nelson said in the song of the same name-- "You can't please everyone, you gotta please yourself." ] (]) 20:07, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs.

== TR Smedberg ==

If the desired outcome is to delete the article on the school as nn, why not afd it? I think action will be fairly speedy. Don't quite understand the "merge." It is listed in the school district. I noticed that there are (now) four articles on middle schools in the district!

Obviously I am missing something here. Sorry. That is usual for me when I think something is "obvious!" :) If you can clarify the issue for me, maybe I can suggest something else? Good luck! ] (]) 23:52, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

:Hi- my point is that the desired outcome isn't to delete, it's to merge it and leave a redirect behind. AfD is really for things that should be wiped from the face of the earth, or where the originator of the AfD thinks it should be wiped at least. Right?
:I don't see anything that explicitly prevents an AfD from being used for a merge at ], so maybe I should go ahead and do that. Didn't know there are three other articles in the district, though. ] (]) 23:59, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

::Followup- I ] for these schools. There are only three- the fourth is a redirect. ] (]) 00:15, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

:::Well, the way it is "handled" (by default) elsewhere, is to have '''no''' redirect which would solve the problem here. Of course, that was done in the past with far less thought, since no article was written in the first place! Often, a search using "google", "Misplaced Pages TR Smedberg" would pop up with the school district. Wouldn't that suffice? ] (]) 00:37, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

::::Also, your proposed solution in the afd (you could be first in line), might be '''delete/redirect to school district'''. Maybe other people would follow that vote.

It has a few issues at this point. First, it is about 830 characters of countable characters and needs to be at least 1500, so a doubling.

:Thanks AM! I pulled some info from OSAA, though I couldn't find if they actually list all championships the school has been in. i.e., do I have to pore through the results from every year and from every sport to see if they won? Or would it be listed if they had won something?

As to OSAA championships, yes, as far as I know you do need to go through each sport's listing if you want a complete list, as I have not seen a school by school list. I would also suggest something on academics, which you can get some from the school report cards of the ODE (). ] (]) 09:36, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

As far as OSAA, I think I'll take that as a future project- I may as well tackle it statewide. I can compile the state winners, then add the info to all high schools in a semi-automated fashion.

Reminder to participate in Misplaced Pages research

Hello,

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.

Take the survey here.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
