[edit] IDRP

IDRP (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Previous reason:This is an article for a paper a middle school does. It doesn't require article. This has no encyclopedic relevance Proposed deletion was removed so moving to deletion discussion SirGrant (talk) 02:01, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

• weak delete I'm a bit confused, if this is what I think, a program at a SINGLE school (or school system), then yes, delete is in order. The author has gone to a lot of trouble to spell it out in great detail, which has no bearing on notability. Pharmboy (talk) 02:29, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Neither of the article's external links is working now, but even if they were working properly it would be hard to understand how a middle school term paper assignment used at only two schools could be notable. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:17, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, not a notable piece of student assessment. Lankiveil (talk) 04:42, 1 January 2008 (UTC).
• Delete. Reads like it was lifted from a prospectus, and isn't terribly relevant to anything... Alloranleon (talk) 17:36, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

• keep I go to a school in Maryland, Poolesvile High School, and an IDRP there is 20 pages and it is over 200 pts. My littler brother goes to Eastern, and he told me his IDRP was created in 1950, when the magnet program was made. So for the past 50 years, IDRP has been going on in Eastern, but also Poolsville and Roberto Clemente. Im sure that there are other schools that have the IDRP because my teacher from Ohio told me a school there has IDRP. So it might be the lack of research on IDRP participation, but the page should not be deleted. HIGHLY NOTEALE

It's easier to convince people that the schools testing system is notable if you spell it right (sorry, had to say that) but the question is: is it notable outside your area? Can you provide a link to someone else using the system? That is the difference in what is important 'locally' and what is notable, per the policy here. Pharmboy (talk) 01:05, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
