Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Central Pastoral Region

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was merge to Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. The content appears to have been merged, so I will redirect these pages. The history is intact if they schools later show independent notability. Xymmax ^{So let it be written} _{So let it be done} 17:04, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Central Pastoral Region

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Wikipedia is not a place to publish directory information. This article duplicates material on the Boston Archdiocesan web site.[1] Moreover, the "Central Pastoral Region" is not a notable organization, merely an administrative category within the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston.

I am also nominating the following related pages because the same issues apply to them:

~~Merge all~~ into the Archdiocese page. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not usually regarded as a good reason for deletion, but this seems to have getting down to an exceesive level of detail. The article is little more than a mere list. None of the individual churches have articles, nor do the vicars. I thus presume they are typically NN. By merging we will get a summary of the arrangements, and an external link can be provided to the archdiocesan website, which will inevitably be maintained, where as the WP pages may not be.

no AfD action needed These articles seem to just need editors to add material to them. Wikipedia is a work in progress. Unscintillating (talk) 01:41, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Merge and redirect: per Peterkingiron. No, these articles do not "seem to just need editors to add material;" Wikipedia is not wastepaper, and we don't need to fill up non-notable articles just for the sake of filling them up. Ravenswing 16:42, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Are you not capable of saying "I don't agree" and providing evidence? Tell me this, where should material for these elementary schools be added to the encyclopedia? Unscintillating (talk) 19:25, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reply: One could respond "Are you not capable of refraining from ad hominem attacks," but that would be uncivil. The answer to your legitimate question is "nowhere;" longstanding consensus holds for the non-notability of elementary schools. Ravenswing 23:58, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Summarize to statistical form and merge to Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. Note that these articles are almost orphans: for example, after the proposed deletion only three articles would remain with links to Central Pastoral Region: Robert Francis Hennessey, Our Lady of Czestochowa Parish, Boston, and St. Adalbert Parish, Hyde Park. Thanks to all participating for the comments. Chonak (talk) 04:41, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a summary of the regional articles to the Archdiocese article.[2] It includes information omitted from the separate articles (e.g., some of the colleges).--Chonak (talk) 05:45, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Now delete all -- All useful information seems to have been merged to the archdiocesan article. Peterkingiron (talk) 21:03, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
