  • Delete: Same anon as the grade school below. Probably someone new to Wikipedia. Hate to open his or her eyes with a VfD loss, but delete for lack of notability. Geogre 12:13, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Have moved it to Bishop Dennis J. O'Connell High School since that is the correct spelling. Feel free to delete the old redirect, but I am quite shure that this school has been and is very notable to all the people attending it and working there, and therefore vote to keep the moved one. --Dittaeva 20:05, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Considering the paltry history given at the school's own website[1], I don't think there's really anything that could be said about this school other than the fact that it exists. Postdlf 20:08, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. The high school I attended (which had more students) is of note to me - should I start an article for it, too? Aranel 21:09, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • keep—is this more or less notable than any random London railway station?—Rory 22:21, Aug 15, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, because I believe in deletion of non-notable high schools. See User:Dpbsmith/schools. However, discussants should be aware that there is no consensus on this issue and should at least glance at What's in, what's out: Secondary institutions if they are not familiar with it already.

  • Delete. Article provides almost no information not in title. -- Cyrius| 07:02, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. This seems less notable than those London railway stations that have articles. One could make a similar list of every high school in the US and that would be a reasonable list article. But as with the London railway station article, one would expect most of the links to be empty and to remain empty. Jallan 13:44, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • I think railway stations are more notable, actually—I live in Arlington County, and like the rest of its residents, I'm very aware of every Metro station, but never having gone to this school and not being an Arlington County school administrator, I've never heard of it.
