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

Famous quotes containing the word schools:
“If Jesus, or his likeness, should now visit the earth, what church of the many which now go by his name would he enter? Or, if tempted by curiosity, he should incline to look into all, which do you think would not shut the door in his face?... It seems to me ... that as one who loved peace, taught industry, equality, union, and love, one towards another, Jesus were he alive at this day, would recommend you to come out of your churches of faith, and to gather into schools of knowledge.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
