Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Education

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Education. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Education|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Education. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Delete or merge and redirect to Lord Byng Secondary School, per WP:ORG and WP:PROMO.

The Byng Arts Mini Program is a notable part of the school and the Vancouver school system, but it is not significant enough on its own to merit a separate article. The Vancouver school district has many other mini school programs in other schools, and while the Byng Arts Mini Program has unique aspects to it, the coverage available isn't enough to establish it as especially notable.

The version of this article before I edited it had two in-line citations; most of the article has been unsourced for over a decade and a half. Although more sources were added for existing content on the day of this nomination, most of the article remains unsourced and reads like a directory or guide for applicants to the program. This is not what Wikipedia is for, and the Byng Arts website serves this purpose already and in a more detailed manner.

If a merger is decided, reliably sourced and encyclopedic content should be merged into the Lord Byng Secondary School article. Merged material should also be checked for 'academic boosterism', which I would argue is present throughout the near entirety of the article. Yue🌙 05:47, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Education Reform in Kentucky (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is an old Wiki Ambassador Program article, and has all the worst tendencies of such articles. Issues are as follows:

  1. Though the titular subject is a notable one, it's not clear why it should be separate from History of education in Kentucky
  2. The text is of low quality and reads very much like a high school paper, not like a proper WP article. It's basically a long three-point essay.
  3. It's at least a decade out of date.
  4. It contains no discussion of important topics like the very important 1990s education reform, the CATS test and its successors, or the 2024 referendum, apart from one sentence at the begining
  5. It makes vague statements about AP classes not specific to the topic, or summarizes old opinion pieces, without providing any useful information.
  6. Sources range from mediocre (local news articles) to abysmal. One of them now links to a spam site.

There is no part of this article that would be worth incorporating into the history article, nor any other article, nor to any future rewrite of this article. Any editor who wishes to write a coverage of this topic, and the relevant points in #4, would be better off expanding History of education in Kentucky#Since 1990. Nicknimh (talk) 01:33, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

edit: I will add that Education in Kentucky#Reform has decent coverage of this topic, though it could use an update. Nicknimh (talk) 02:50, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Indiscriminate collection of links to Wikidata, a user-generated database, which is not a reliable source. There is more to say about this particular list, but I am not going there because that would likely just distract from the main point. Randykitty (talk) 18:57, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academic journals, Organizations, and Lists. Randykitty (talk) 18:57, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:TNT. We should not be importing content from Wikidata, and that is the entirety of this list. It does not meet our standards for verifiability through reliable sourcing. And even for the entries that come with sources from Wikidata, they are of dubious independence from their subjects, generally formatted badly and unfixable by Wikipedia editing as the bad formatting comes from Wikidata. This should go as well for List of learned societies in the United States and List of learned societies in the United States, which have exactly the same issues. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:17, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - it seems to me that there are two issues. First does the list meet the criteria of WP:NLIST and second is it a useful thing for navigation per WP:LISTPURP-NAV. On the latter point, this is a long list of wikilinks which is a recognised form of navigation, other examples include List of banks (alphabetical). Returning to the former point, the question is whether the list is of notable things to the extent that having the page helps with a user navigating the encyclopedia. On this point I'm currently undecided. JMWt (talk) 19:50, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - So, returning to think about this some more. WP:NLIST states One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable source further nothing that the entirety of the list does not need to be noted just the group of things. So it would appear that a simple way to establish if a list of learned societies is notable is to see if reliable sources consider them as a group. Here are some references that do that 1 and 2 and 3
Clearly Learned society is a notable idea and reliable sources have considered them as a group. It also seems likely that a list sorted by country consisting of many blue wikilinks would be useful for navigation - for example by a reader wanting to see which learned society exists in their country.

Not enough independent sources. Some sources are directly from The Private Eye Project or from Kerry Ruef, its founder.

  • The Ed.uab.edu source is from attendees of a Private Eye talk.
  • The Stone and Barlow book is a collection of essays including one by Ruef about Private Eye.
  • The Microscopy Today source is an article by Ruef.

Other sources just briefly mention Private Eye as something that exists. One is a defunct storefront. The only independent sources that have something notable to say about Private Eye are the WBHM article and possibly the book by Robert Bernstein, which I don't have. There isn't enough here to write a neutral article. Truthnope (talk) 02:21, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't pass WP:GNG as none of the posts they've held are notable for an article, with most notability appearing to be because she is married to a U.S. Representative, going against the principle of WP:NOTINHERITED. Most references do not provide WP:SIGCOV or are not independent of the subject. Epluribusunumyall (talk) 00:31, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like a delete. I see maybe two articles referenced that actually focus on the subject. Mistletoe-alert (talk) 22:21, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - There's a 4000 word profile of her in Mother Jones, in addition to lots of Florida newspaper coverage going back many years. This coverage is not inherited from her husband, and it's independent of subject. I'm the author of the original article, and several others of this type about Florida public figures such as Kent Stermon. The conservative movement promotes a bunch of people without conventional credentials of notability, and their backgrounds ought to be discoverable by the public via sources that aren't self-promotion. Donalds is a perfect example. 40,000 page views in the last 90 days.

  • Delete: I don't think her spats in the media are what we need for notability [6] (I'm unsure if that's even about the same person), [7]. She seems to be good at agitating people, but that's hardly enough for notability here. Oaktree b (talk) 15:04, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say anything about significant coverage. — Maile (talk) 16:49, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There's a case that some of those articles could contribute to notability. But we don't need to make it. Better quality sourcing exists:
Unless I'm missing something major, there is a substantial amount of coverage of Donalds here, far more than we would expect for a standard congressperson's spouse. A decent amount of it is of her own activism. NOTINHERITED is not a shortcut for ignoring existing coverage. Eddie891 Talk Work 17:03, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
