[edit] Bentleigh West Primary School
Article fails WP:N and WP:ORG. Asserts no notability. Former prod candidate, removed by user, saying that a lack of an agreement at WP:SCH means we should come here Twenty Years 14:18, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

- Keep - Article is referenced with multiple sources (including some news coverage) on the schools multiple environmental awards - and hence establishes notability. Article needs more sources in areas such as "History" but the article is still a well established encyclopedic entry meaning I do not think deletion is necessary.

weakoppose merge to Bentleigh, Victoria - I do not think a merge is really essential in this case, and I hold that a deletion is not appropriate,but as the to-merge-into article is small, all of the information in the school article can be moved into there easily as a compromise, the article has now been expanded further and more references added meaning it is no longer a Stub, I support non-permanent mergers in many cases, but I think this article is well established enough to be left alone.

- Delete - This would be better served by having a section in the article on Bentleigh. --SRHamilton 22:51, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
- Keep given the various awards. Alternatively, should be mentioned in the Bentleigh article. Capitalistroadster 02:28, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Winning non-notable awards hardly makes the school itself notable Twenty Years 08:42, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Multiple awards and recognition received constitute a strong claim of notability. Alansohn 05:36, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Would this not be better served being placed in the Bentleigh, Victoria article? You could talk about the non notable award that the school won, and mention that theres a primary school there too. Cam even admits that this is all the school can really claim to notability.

- Comment - frankly no. A separate page provides the headroom for growth. It is not correct to characterise the school as "the non notable award that the school won". The awards must be taken together with the attendant publicity. We merge articles into their locality when they are not notable and there is no scope for encyclopaedic content. This school has clearly notable environmental achievements and there is plenty of scope for further expansion, as indeed is happening. It well merits its own article.

- Keep as currently written, the article demonstrates notability. I see no need to merge this specific article anywhere. Burntsauce 22:44, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Notable, has references etc. LordHarris 15:31, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
