Palo Alto Montessori School

Completely non-notable preschool. Has no future potential for notability. Gateman1997 06:27, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Presumably is of note to the community it serves. Philip Arthur 06:32, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No Montessori school is of note to the community it serves. Montessori schools are not public schools, this is advertising of a commercial venture. Zoe 06:38, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
Keep, of course schools are of note to the community they serve. Wikipedia is not communist. Kappa 06:40, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I have no problem with keeping public schools, but this is not a public school. Should we have an article on every Boys' and Girls' Club? They are probably more notable to a community than a Montessori school is. Zoe 06:58, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
  - I don't see why being public or commercial makes any difference to its notability, as opposed to perhaps its verifiability and our ability to be NPOV about it. Kappa 07:32, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. nn. Very few preschools are notable in a wikipedia sense. ManoaChild 07:11, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Communist? Gamaliel 07:13, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I draw the line here. Schools are maybe OK to include in an encyclopedia, Preschools are not notable. Sjakkalle (Check!) 07:43, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete there might be a handful of interesting and important preschools in the world. Not this one. Rkevins82 08:08, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, per Brenneman.—Encephalon | ζ | Σ 10:04:35, 2005-08-10 (UTC)
Delete. Not notable. I'd also like to ask: Communist? WTF? android79 10:53, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
I've expanded a bit, but in my opinion it's too trivial to stand alone at present and is unlikely to be expandable. There just isn't enough to write about a pre-school--no curriculum detail, no school inspectors, no competitive sports, children too young to articulate publicly, etc. Merge any useful information (eg URL, accreditation) with Palo Alto, California which already contains a reference to the school. And redirect. --Tony Sidaway ^Talk 12:16, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the school thing is getting out of hand: Preschools are not schools, people! It's right in the word: "pre"-school, meaning before school. Unlike a university or high school, anybody with some spare space in their house, a few toys, and free time during the day can set up a preschool. Also, preschool articles are unlikely to be truly verifiable, as almost all information about them comes from their own websites or ads. Please, think before you vote.

Delete as per Starblind, also very few preschools would be notable Salsb 14:13, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
Delete. Per Starblind. According to Montessori method "There are currently over 3000 privately held Montessori schools in the USA", "most of which" cover the 3-6 age range. Does WP need another 2000+ articles like this? 192.18.1.5 15:06, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I really don't see any decent reason to remove it. Un focused 15:11, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge/Redirect to Palo Alto, California where the school is already described. — RJH 15:30, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, non-notable. --Nandesuka 15:47, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
delete indifferentiatable from other pre-schools. --Tim Pope 16:43, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
