Sonora Union High School: Counterfeit Purses ( talk ) 04:17, 23 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Schools and California .  Skynxnex ( talk ) 04:24, 23 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Speedy keep : no rationale for deletion given.  "It's a high school" is not a valid rationale.  Queen of Hearts ❤️ (no relation) 04:35, 23 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] To elaborate: you need to explain why this fails our general notability guideline .  High schools aren't inherently notable, but they're also non inherently not notable.  Queen of Hearts ❤️ (no relation) 04:40, 23 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] And the authors should evidence notablity of the subject by added more references.  Regardless the school is notable or not, current form of the article is very trivial, one sentence which is not sourced and two data items which have reference in infobox, it is substance of the article for now.  Dawid2009 ( talk ) 07:03, 25 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep - In addition to the lack of rationale for the deletion of the school by the nominator, GNG / NSCHOOL guidelines are met through several sources, from which I plan to add information to the article.  These alone can be found through a simple Google search.  I recommended the nom look at the BEFORE policy.

Ceoil ( talk ) 02:27, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .  Everyone at Wikipedia who has done a few edits and is not actively blocked can have access to the wikipedia library, which includes free access to newspapers.com, among other things.  A quick scan of newspapers.com shows tens of thousands of newspaper articles for either "sonora high school" or "sonora union high school", limited to sources in California.  When nominating a school article for deletion, it would be wise to do this first, as doing the other steps in WP:BEFORE .  Remember that policy requires that sources WP:NEXIST , not that they are currently in the article.  A very small effort finds these tens of thousands of sources, looking through them it is apparent that there are many that provide significant coverage of the subject of the article.  This is easily sufficient to meet the general notability guideline (and therefore WP:NSCHOOL ), so the article should be kept and expanded rather than deleted.  All that said, I sympathize with the nominator that the article is poorly referenced in its current state, but again, that is not a valid reason to delete, nor is not liking it .  Jacona ( talk ) 03:50, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment .  I'm currently having trouble making clippings from newspapers.com, but the first mention of the high school I found was from September 6, 1906 in the Corning Daily Observer, so this school is at least 117 years old.  Since the internet is only a few years old, it is probable that the vast majority of existing sources are not online.
