The result was keep, as withdrawn by nominator, and only objection is that there is vandalism to the article, which is not really a deletion criterion. I suggest doing WP:RM for move to Silver Chips. -Patstuarttalk|edits 01:28, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Silver Chips Online

Silver Chips Online (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Despite the awards, hardly any content asserts the notability or importance of this online school newspaper. The awards themselves appear to be non-notable (ghits), thus not making the article meet WP:WEB. Húsönd 22:59, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep, move to Silver Chips Silver Chips Online is registered with Google News; how many high school newspapers can say that? The Google result produced by Husond is a bit (unintentionally) misleading because the award is noted here. Silver Chips was mentioned in The Washington Post in June 2006 (in the A-national news section, in the headline). Four articles from Silver Chips received awards in 2006 from Columbia University's Scholastic Press Association. Congressman Chris Van Hollen honored the sponsor of the newspaper last year after he retired. An article was also written in The New York Times about the school newspaper in March 2006. However, I would endorse moving the article to Silver Chips to include the print version of the newspaper. -- tariqabjotu 01:22, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Good work, Tariq. I should've investigated this deeper... I withdraw and support your suggestion (and perhaps some cleanup to the article). --Húsönd 02:46, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Please view edit history for this article. Anonymous edits apparently (based on the IP) from a staff member are being used to delete substantive additions to the article. There are apparent violations of the three reverts rule. If the article cannot be edited according to Wikipedia standards, what is the point of keeping it?

I don't think vandalism is usually a deletion critera. The people that are doing the vandalism could be blocked etc. --67.68.155.110 04:54, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
