Yellow Arrows
changeGoodvac has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: This article is largely about the Native American school and not the school director. Either way, both lack notability and coverage in reliable sources. The current sources are not only unverifiable but also primary sources. These cannot be used to establish notability. There's also some spam: "Mr. Arrows says, 'Please help me.' Contributions to the catholic school are tax-deductible in the United States". For these reasons, I propose this article be deleted.

Please discuss this request below, but keep in mind that you shouldn't vote on everything and that there may be options other than "keep" or "delete", such as merging.

change- Work on the artilce.The article is notable. The sources are reliable. I read them myself. Primary sources are allowed when there are no better. Those who want the article to be better are allowed to work on it.Chuck Marean (talk) 03:27, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't doubt that you read the sources, but they are simply not reliable since they are primary sources. That primary sources are the best sources on a subject indicates that notability is wanting. Yellow Arrows retrieves a passing mention in a reliable source, which is insufficient to establish notability. Goodvac (talk) 05:06, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Not living at a library, I found the letters notable. They gave the web site which others could read. And since secondary sources are based on primary sources, primary sources are considered reliable by the secondary sources, which are simply easier to read.--Chuck Marean (talk) 18:07, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - per nomination. Also, xwiki spam - see n:en:Yellow_Arrows_asks_for_help, and I'm sure there's others. Goblin 14:49, 29 March 2011 (UTC) I ♥ Gordonrox24![reply]
- Delete non notable, the English article on St Labre says that "Curtis Yarlott" is the exec director of the school in any case (and is deemed non-notable as well). The Rambling Man (talk) 10:46, 31 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per the Rambling Man. --Highspeedrailguy (talk) 21:51, 31 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
