Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Johnnie L. Cochran Jr. Middle School
per the norm for non-notable elementary or middle schools this should be redirected to the school board page List of Los Angeles Unified School District schools#Zoned middle schools.  is not a reason to keep an article. Yes there are sources that mention this school (the current content creator has done a good job of finding material), but none of them show the notability of the school. Some of the material might be worth including '''if''' the school were notable, but that's not the same as showing that the school '''is''' notable. It was built, it looked like Mt. Vernon, it was named, it was damaged and rebuilt, a new name was proposed, and a different name was chosen. Mount Vernon, Earp, and Cochran are notable, but that does not make schools named after them notable. Being built, damaged, and rebuilt are not notable. The direct quote from documentary cannot be evaluated since the links are dead. They have been in the article since the original version was created in 2009. So far I have found only one other source that refers to this documentary, and it is useless to us as it is verbatim copy of that part of this Wikipedia article. The defunct marleyklaus.com ref was probably not a reliable source since she was probably the producer of the piece (Klaus was a west coast news producer and blogger). The Marion Parker case is notable, but the school's minor involvement does not seem to be enough to make the school notable
