Honey Creek Middle School

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

School fails WP:ORG and most likely WP:GNG too. There is virtually no coverage of the school in detail in WP:RS. What little coverage in local meida is not in detail. The only national coverage was a mention of a teacher in an article on the top 100 teachers in USA Today. Coverage of a teacher at the school does not equate to coverage of the school. It had been redirected to the local school district for nearly two years til an editor came along today and restored it. Per school article guidelines and WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, re-establishing the redirect is a perfectly acceptable outcome for me. John from Idegon (talk) 00:02, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: A middle school that doesn't have notability. The article says. . . it's a middle school with things to brag about, which is what every middle school can say. It's also, I'm pretty sure, not the only "Honey Creek Middle School" in the U.S., so a redirect may not be the best idea. Hithladaeus (talk) 12:14, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-notable middle school, fails WP:GNG and WP:CORP, doesn't pass WP:NSCHOOL as it's not a secondary school (high school to use the US term). Joseph2302 (talk) 12:27, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to ~~Terre Haute, Indiana~~ Vigo County School Corporation per long-standing precedent stated at WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. –Davey2010^Talk 21:20, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- COMMENT - Davey2010, are you opposing redirect to Vigo County School Corporation, the prior redirect? Generally, if a district article exits, that is the usual target. We only go to the municipalities if there is not a district article. John from Idegon (talk) 21:44, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops sorry John from Idegon - I hadn't looked through the history - Just assumed you meant Terre Haut, Absolutely agree redirecting to the district as that's usually the preferred option :). –Davey2010^Talk 23:45, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Vigo County School Corporation - This looks to me like a middle school permastub with marginal notability at best. If there is another "Honey Creek Middle School", we can create a hatnote at the target article, or perhaps convert to a disambiguation page. Either way, it would be helpful to direct readers to a location that at least discusses these schools. Mz7 (talk) 02:04, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the district, as usual. No need to delete altogether. We should do as we usually do with these--it's a workable compromise. DGG ( talk ) 05:14, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
