keep - note that historically it was preceded by the Geyserville school which was in the newspapers back to the 1920s so there should be a section or daughter article just on that. I'll add sources to the talk page. Lot's out there if one looks.

Keep Notable as "one of three major centers of Baháʼí learning." I don't see why this should be deleted. 10:32, 12 January 2021 (UTC) — Preceding

Comment: Can anyone actually link any coverage of this school from independent reliable sources? I don't actually see any. — MarkH21talk 20:31, 14 January 2021 (UTC)reply
Reply - tons of newspaper articles on the talk page just starting.

I'm still collecting and I've not reviewed them but they mark the history of events from founding through additional buildings through when it was bought out by the government and the Baha'is opened another site at the present site and the beginning of events there. Some of the newspaper articles trace more of the history as such if I remember right. The point is that significant coverage includes actual events, actual people attending, actual programs of classes given, some financial events like budgets for building improvements, etc., not just "it was there". I have a collection of over 500 newspaper articles to sift through for various kinds of coverage. And of course when actually used these would be fleshed out citations.

Significant coverage is more than a brief statement that "program A was held at school X" or "teacher B taught at school X", which is all that I have seen so far from those links. The coverage needs to be about the school in detail. Until anyone can explicitly provide such sources, there is no guideline-based reason to keep the article. — MarkH21talk 21:22, 14 January 2021 (UTC)reply
I think a body of over 500 articles has much to say but there are some articles that are larger and profile the school in some depth as well as markers of major transitions. I've added a section in an attempt to sift through the more than 500 articles for larger ones. I'm also aware of a seperate collection I'll be reviewing/collecting next.

Keep: Passes
WP:NSCHOOL with significant coverage in local news sources (ideally there would be other types of sources, but this is probably enough), e.g.
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Relisting to allow the improvements promised in the above discussion to materialise.
