No third-party references to establish notability for this school. Also [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Holy_Spirit_Integrated_School&action=history spam]. Biruitorul ^Talk 15:58, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

• Merge/redirect to Antipolo City#Private schools. The cut-off for a high school is secondary year 5 so this one just misses out on notability. I will revise this recommendation if evidence can be adduced that the school educates to age 16 but I haven't found any sources on this point, yet. TerriersFan (talk) 16:23, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

• Keep. All high schools are notable, and if a school offers any grades corresponding to those offered by a North American high school, it should count as a high school. In this case, it offers up to secondary IV, which I think would be the equivalent of a North American grade 10. -- Eastmain (talk) 17:26, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
• Inherent notability is dangerous ground. WP:ORG is clear: "an organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources". That is not the case here, and the burden of proof is on ... someone to demonstrate notability, not to say that all high schools are notable (which is not our policy).

• OTOH sensible encyclopaedia building indicates that more than 4 hours should be given for sources to be found before proposing deletion. It needs to be noted that Filipino schools have a negligible presence on the internet and to avoid systemic bias time should be given for local sources to be identified.

• A fair point - I suppose the spam-like quality of the initial article in part drove me to seek deletion, but I did do a Google search and no non-trivial mentions turned up. Fortunately, the AfD runs for a few days and the likely outcome seems keep at this point, so there will (optimistically) be time after that for sources to emerge.

• Merge and redirect to Antipolo City#Private schools unless better sources can be found. coccyx bloccyx_(toccyx) 17:34, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
• Keep - OK, having re-read Education in the Philippines (accepting that Wikipedia is not a reliable source :-)), it is clear that the four secondary years are immediately followed by tertiary education so they certainly equate to a high school. I'm off to clean the page up ... TerriersFan (talk) 17:44, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

• Keep on the shaky grounds that all high schools are notable. I do, however, break with Eastman's view that any school that educates to the equivalent of American grade 9 is a high school. CRGreathouse (t | c) 23:14, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
