[edit] Montessori school of westfield

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Montessori school of westfield, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Montessori school of westfield.

  • Comment - you may want to review how my "Articles for Deletion" discussion/debate progressed, as well as, the criteria that ultimately helped to form a "Keep" consensus with a majority of editors in the discussion. It can be found at WP:Articles for deletion/Wilmington Montessori School. The things that helped me the most were the policies on Notability, Reliable Sources, Verifiability. Since I was using another school listing as an example to write mine, and I felt that I was initially providing more and better information than that article, it helped to read the "What about X?" article. The biggest challenge I had was to step back from my article and ask "Is this school really notable enough in the eyes of other people to warrant an entry in an encyclopedia?" I had to research and adequately document those reasons, then leave it to the judgment of other editors to determine whether or not the case was sufficiently stated. Best of luck on your article.
