Quarles Elementary
non-notable elementary school. Nekohakase 19:40, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
- Merge into Winchester City School District per the proposed WP:SCHOOL guidelines. — RJH (talk) 20:40, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
- Merge as above. JYolkowski // talk 22:36, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
Merge orkeep. Kappa 23:58, 19 September 2006 (UTC)- Change vote in response to JoshuaZ's brutal rejection of compromise. Kappa 22:46, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment I'm a bit puzzled by your comment above. I wouldn't terribly mind merging (I'd prefer deletion). Once a few people have already suggested merge it is well within the closing admins discretion to count merges as keeps for the general purpose of keeping the content so your above change doesn't do anything. If you are actually of the opinion that this should be merged then say so but "voting" to cancel out another user's comment is not a logical procedure. AfD is not a vote. JoshuaZ 01:33, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- I don't think it should be merged, I voted to merge in a spirit of compromise. That was obviously a mistake. Kappa 03:18, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- Two comments: first, if you think something should be actually kept it is best to say so. We aren't going to have any productive dialogue over these issues if people don't at minimum say what they are thinking. Similarly, if you don't say something like "I'd like to keep but merging is a reasonable compromise" then no one knows that you are saying merge as a way to compromise. It is unreasonable to accuse someone of a "brutal rejection of compromise" when they have no idea a compromise has been proposed. JoshuaZ 03:27, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- Voting to delete when there are keep votes and merge is possible is always rejection of compromise. Kappa 23:06, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- Um, no it isn't. Merging is a valid solution it isn't necessarily a "compromise" some people actually prefer merging. And in any event as I pointed out such dialogue is only productive when people actually give their opinions. If you want to keep it you should say something like "I would favor keeping, but I'm willing to merge" which indicates a compromise offer. JoshuaZ 04:08, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

- Delete This is a non-notable elementary school. Nothing distinguishes it from other elementary schools. It has nothing notable or significant about it. This reads like a directory entry which something specifically excluded under WP:NOT. JoshuaZ 01:36, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Keep and do not merge, all schools are notable. --ForbiddenWord 19:02, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment No one really believes that. If someone taught 4 kids out of their house would that school be notable? Of course not. JoshuaZ 19:35, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment That might be your POV on it, but we all know that Misplaced Pages is not a paper encyclopedia, it isn't as if we're about to run out of room that we have to delete all of these vitally important school articles. --ForbiddenWord
- Comment As you claiming that we should have articles about a school run out of someone's house that teaches 4 kids if it meets WP:V? JoshuaZ 20:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

- Merge into the school district article. Yamaguchi先生 23:03, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per reasons explained within the User:Silensor/Schools essay. Attendance at this school is over 100 times greater than the one theoretically proposed, so I wouldn't worry about that too much. ;-) Silensor 07:53, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
