The article :Srinivasa Higher Secondary School, Melaiyur has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSCHOOL. Several searches with Google and sub-engines show nothing besides social media posts and Wikimapia, which both fail WP:SELFPUB. TL;DR, no sources, no notability.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Recently, Martin Luther King Jr. College Preparatory High School was demolished to make way for the new Frayser High School. Should this school have its own separate article once it becomes notable enough, or should it be added into the existing article, with the old logo and enrollment info being moved to the history section?

:Either option would be fine. On the one hand, the new school appears to be more of a "hard reset" then a continuation of the old school, so that would make creating a separate article reasonable. However, the current article content is pretty short and could easily be folded into the "history" section of the new school. Unless the older school can be more fully fleshed out, I think keeping it in one article may be the better option. Stedil (talk) 00:42, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

I noticed [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sanford_School&diff=prev&oldid=1289009374 this edit] adding rankings by Niche (company). Is this is a reliable source, or even necessary on school articles? Their [https://www.niche.com/k12/rankings/methodology/ methodology] relies partly on subjective data. --Magnolia677 (talk) 11:25, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

:I don't see much value in including the Niche ratings in school or city articles. They don't carry much significance outside of representing that company's opinion, and their use in articles is often a means of promoting the school or city. Stedil (talk) 00:42, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

::I would personally only mention a Niche ranking if a newspaper article done by a journalist hired by the newspaper and/or a freelancer, subject to the newspaper's editorial conditions, commented on that. Other than that, I wouldn't mention Niche rankings. Self-published material does not factor into this. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:59, 14 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi! There is an articles for submission discussion about a school district, at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk#18:20,_14_May_2025_review_of_submission_by_WhisperToMe WhisperToMe (talk) 21:54, 14 May 2025 (UTC)

: The inquiry was archived. Would someone from this project mind looking at Draft:Avon Central School District and evaluating if the article meets GNG so far? I added some sourcing from 1950s newspapers and I would like a fresh set of eyes to see this. Thank you! WhisperToMe (talk) 17:16, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

:: It is now in the mainspace. Thank you, Grandmere Eugene! WhisperToMe (talk) 00:11, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

A student created an article about their school, Pasco eSchool, and has been adding what seems to be promotional content. This article would benefit if an experienced school editor could have a look. Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 20:41, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

There is an ongoing discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard#California State University, Northridge (more broadly: do alumni have COI?) that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. Any input you can provide would be appreciated. Namelessposter (talk) 16:30, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
