[edit] St Aloysius College, Adelaide
No notability asserted other than it's a school. Very little to no context. Dougie WII (talk) 11:36, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

- Comment: For better or worse, consensus seems to be that most high schools are notable. shoy (words words) 13:39, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Keep WP:OUTCOMES seems to show the light here. The article passes part of WP:ORG, in that it has been around since 1880. Really all this article is looking for is somebody who actually cares about it. Twenty Years 14:17, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep and improve. Consensus is that high schools are notable. With almost a thousand students, someone someday will improve the article. --lk (talk) 17:26, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Keep These places are used by shed loads of folk. That is cultural notability. scope_creep (talk) 17:55, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

- Keep. Very long-running high school; high schools are almost always considered notable per WP:OUTCOMES. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 20:06, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - seriously old school for Adelaide, notable students like Dame Roma Mitchell and others. It has a book on it from Wakefield press Making Space: Women and Education at St. Aloysius College 1880-2000, appears well covered in Three Women of Faith: Gertrude Abbott, Elizabeth Anstice Baker and Mary Tenison Woods (wakefield press 2000), some coverage may be in Colonial Australia, 1875-1900 (Francis Keble Crowley 1980). Clearly appears a notable school and well written enough about for a good article. Peripitus (Talk) 20:21, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep: Agree that, consensus seems to be that most high schools are notable. Lets stop debating and leave time for someone to care about an article like this. Peripitus could/would you add these refs to this article? Add 1500 characters and I'll nominate it for the front page. Victuallers (talk) 22:09, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Added a bit and a few references - more will have to wait until someone gets to the SA State Library - Peripitus (Talk) 23:06, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep- Not terribly valuable info but it does meet notability and is a recognized institution.---Iconoclast Horizon 00:59, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Keep: Meets WP:N. Noroton (talk) 01:00, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- It looks like the consensus is that all such schools are considered inheritantly notable, so I withdraw the nomination. -- Dougie WII (talk) 01:26, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
