Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kadjebi-Asato Secondary School

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 keep. Arguments such as "is notable" (without explanation) and "per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES" are highly discounted (and the latter suggests the commenter may not have read that page recently), but enough RS coverage was brought forward to support a WP:GNG claim.

Non-notable school; sources cited are all primary and/or don't provide sigcov, and a search finds nothing of substance. Fails WP:GNG / WP:ORG. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:33, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Adequate coverage by ModernGhana.com and myshsrank.com Eastmain (talk • contribs) 21:57, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This school article is notable and verifiable. daSupremo ^[talk] 12:56, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment just saying 'notable and verifiable' is not a meaningful argument — 'notable' how? None of the sources cited are secondary and WP:RS, which is what notability requires. Sorry, but you need to present some actual evidence, not just your opinions. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 20:09, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. None of the sources provided are providing WP:SIGCOV. The source indeed prove that the schools existed, but none of them are providing significant coverage. Myshsrank.com looks just like a directory of schools, which in my opinion, does not satisfy notability. The source modernghana.com is quite reliable, but it does not provide WP:SIGCOV and only covers about the school's sport achievements, which in my opinion, does not satisfy notability.

Keep, I've added a couple of additional sources. The school has received local news coverage which I believe establishes notability per WP:GNG. NemesisAT (talk) 15:37, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting to evaluate sourcing provided by NemesisAT a couple of days ago. Note that I significantly discounted Jwale2 and daSupremo's contributions when assessing whether consensus already existed or not. Further, I found SunDawn's contribution more persuasive than Eastmain.

Weak Keep - Originally was going with delete until I found out we have an article on ModernGhana - Sources aren't great and shite like the school directories and Youtube videos should be removed but by a very bare minimum I'm seeing some notability here... not much mind but enough to push me into Keeping. –Davey2010^Talk 20:48, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - we invariably keep high schools as per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES - especially those that are 60-years old with thousands of students. I'm not sure what is different here, other than it being in Africa. Also meets GNG with references added to article, and other easily findable recent coverage such as One and two, and [ three]. I have no doubt there's be references older than the last year or so, if there was an archive of the last 60 years of Ghanian news. Nfitz (talk) 18:31, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
