Fails WP:NCORP, sourced to a blog post and a passing mention in the New York Times. WP:BEFORE reveals no significant coverage in reliable sources. SailingInABathTub ~~🛁~~ 15:39, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

- Comment. One can find many articles about the school in Finnish newspapers and magazines. (e.g. Yle.fi, hs.fi, Tekniikka & Talous, most of which are unfortunately behind the paywall) I am not familiar with WP:NCORP, so I let others decide whether these are enough to pass the test.

- Keep Plenty of coverage by e.g. Yle and Helsingin Sanomat, which are both reliable: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], etc. The National Library of Finland's newspaper archive (online access highly limited for non-researchers) also has a ton of hits, e.g. Länsiväylä 12.2.2022 (two-thirds of a spread) and 20.11.2021 (half page), Kauppalehti 23.4.2020 (two pages), Savon Sanomat 28.2.2020 (two-thirds spread), Helsingin Uutiset 12.2.2020 (third of a page), etc. Also a whole bunch of historical hits, e.g. both Uusi Suomi and Etelä-Suomen Sanomat in December 1959, Etelä-Suomen Sanomat on 7.11.1945, etc. -Ljleppan (talk) 09:19, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
