Schools and Organisations
Note: unless the art/style is notable, a school or organisation teaching it is unlikely to be. Hence these criteria are similar.
Criteria supporting notability
- Subject of an independent article/documentary: see above, and consider if it was the style/art and the school/organisation was an example.
- Long, externally verifiable history
- Large number of students
- Regular or large competitive successes in inter-school/ organisation tournaments where the style is notable.
- Multiple wide spread sites: an organisation 2 or 3 in a 30 mile radius is a lot less likely to be notable than one with 30 schools in different countries. These are the extremes but illustrate the point.
Criteria supporting deletion
- Short history: be wary of adverts and splinter styles, a sub-section is more appropriates for the latter
- Small school
