I think this should just be the content of the article for the indefinite future. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 20:41, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That's an idea. Just use this, and if later someone wants to add addresses or other relevant info it can be turned into a table then. At least this one is complete. – bradv🍁 20:59, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I agree the list-table should be made to be comprehensive. Without seeing the list here, I tried adding all the Scarborough ones. Probably better to work from the school boards' listing, alphabetical (as [https://www.tdsb.on.ca/Find-your/School/Elementary here in "Find-your-school"), which includes addresses and grades covered. So maybe delete the Scarborough ones, and copy-paste in the rest from pages of the Find-your-school webpage. --Doncram (talk) 21:11, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This is the list from the "Find your school" page, and here's the javascript I used to pull it:
var arr = []; 
$("#SchoolSearchResults li > a:first-child").each(function (i, s) {
    arr.push("* " + $(s).text())
}); 
arr.join("\n");

Wow, thanks for that, that code seems valuable though I would not be running anything like that. (Or, where/how could I run it, would i need to install software and run it from my PC somehow?) Perhaps that could be modified to create rows with a bit more. Depending on discussion about columns/content to be included in the table (next section), perhaps capturing the street address and the neighborhood and the grade level range should also be done. We're not in a rush here, maybe we should compose a few alternative mini-tables showing one or two rows, to help decide what should be included. I also would like to defer a lot to the list-article creator in this. --Doncram (talk) 21:30, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

columns for table

[edit]

Assuming that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Toronto District School Board elementary schools is closed "Keep", then what info should be presented in the table? Offhand I don't think Math scores or other temporary stuff should be included. It should have columns for location (and should include address and coordinates) and for year established and grade level range and approximate size/enrollment. That last could be supported by a footnote for each row, depending on where the info is from. Add a description/notes column to speak to anything special, like a school being a registered historic site or having a famous architect or whatever. --Doncram (talk) 21:06, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I notice there is List of public elementary schools in New York City, which has useful column "Named for", which is clearly good to have because it is fairly well populated. Are there other good examples to crib from? --Doncram (talk) 21:26, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
List of secondary schools in the Toronto District School Board, developed a lot by User:Mattximus who started this one too, has useful column for photos. I would name the column "Image" and put it further to the left, with Description/Notes to be kept to the right.
Following in part the standard format used in historic sites lists that I happen to work on, e.g. National_Register_of_Historic_Places_listings_in_Alabama#Autauga_County (the first county list-article alphabetically in U.S. NRHP list-article system), I would include:
  • an unlabelled numbering column first (so we and the reader can verify the list has 451 members)
  • name (usually unlinked, but "bluelink" if it has an article)
  • image
  • date founded (a year) (or maybe this should be covered, selectively, only in "Notes")
  • size/enrollment
  • grade levels covered
  • location (street address and coordinates), which is not useful for sorting upon
  • neighbourhood (sortable)
  • named for" (although maybe this info, which is not applicable for every row, could be included in "Notes" column)
  • "Notes" or "Description" (to handle anything special
"Notes" might also cover any available external link to a website about the given school, if it is a good website
Maybe a few draft mini-tables should be created with a few rows each, to help decide what looks like will work for Toronto. --Doncram (talk) 21:48, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Given that there are 400 of these schools I think this table as proposed will be impossible. I would stick with just 4 columns: the name, neighbourood (just the official 6 easily found on the official website: Toronto, East York, York, North York, Scarborough, and Etobicoke), grades and size. Once this is complete then we can talk about adding another column for addresses or pictures. Mattximus (talk) 22:33, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That would be fine. But if you like the format of draft table below, then there can be columns for images and addresses and notes from the getgo. It might be a tad easier to create the table including the name, the address info, and grades, from the Look-it-up website, than it would be to add address stuff later. And yes the first version would be mostly blank, would lack coordinates and would have empty image and notes columns. However the blanks enlist other editors to fill them....who knows maybe one of us would be happy to scour Commons for photos, say. :) --Doncram (talk) 23:15, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

a draft table

[edit]

Trying with just a few entries. "Notes" column to include date founded, "named for" if applicable.

Note that Agincourt Junior Public School had an article (see this last best version, but was redirected based on AFD in 2015. It was first redirected to Toronto District School Board (which does not mention it) and then to Agincourt, Toronto#Education where it is mentioned, but there is no room / it would not be appropriate to add any additional facts about the school. Neither good. Better to redirect (like how Adam Beck Junior Public School is now a redirect) to a table row that can hold some info. Which might spawn off a separate article again sometime, if it gets too big. I am able to restore photo, sourced content from the former article. --Doncram (talk) 23:09, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Africentric Alternative School is a redlink, so I list it unlinked, here. I can't find a photo for it at commons.

The TDSB manages 451 elementary schools.[1]

Discussion of a draft table

[edit]

Any comments? And what is "JK" in "JK-08", by the way? --Doncram (talk) 23:19, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Doncram, this looks like an insane amount of work. Let's just do the list for now, and any bluelinks can be added as appropriate. JK is junior kindergarten (followed by SK, then Grade 1, etc.) – bradv🍁 23:28, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, that's a bit insane. I think the simple list with just those four columns (name, district (what you call neighbourhood), grades, and population) should be the best start. Images are nice, but I doubt we will have more than just a handful on commons. If we do then I would conceed to have the image column as well. Mattximus (talk) 23:39, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
(EC) Bradv, do you mean, or would it be okay, for the first version to be with blanks like "Version that can be created easily just from Look-it-up webpage" above? I would be totally fine with that being created. Could you do that, or anything close to that? (Even if you just made a simple list, not a table, with name, street address, neighborhood, grades. "Table-izing" could be done easily enough by copy-pasting in the row divider characters necessary, I would be happy to do that part if you could make the list with those four pieces of info.) That would be a good start. (Mattximus, this seems to be in agreement with you?) Of course it will take a long time for photos to be added, of course a complete table with blanks is what is needed first, IMO. --Doncram (talk) 23:44, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
About collecting photos, there needs to be a blank column to place them (otherwise how, where, could they be collected?) I happen to edit mostly on the system of list-articles about U.S. NRHP-listed places, which is a giant photo-collection system. Per its tracking page as of today, it has collected 77,884 photos (mostly new ones from interested editors, and some historical ones), so 83.3% of its rows within its list-articles have a photo. "If we build it, they will come." :) --Doncram (talk) 23:50, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If we can procedurally generate the above table (minus the address given WP:NOTWHITE) fantastic. Pictures slowly being filled in over time doesn't strike me as any sort of problem. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 23:58, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Collecting coordinates would take a moderate amount of time too. They can be looked up one by one using Google maps, using street address given and visually confirming there is a school there. Street addresses are needed for that, and are not ephemeral like opening hours of museums or other stuff that wp:NOTPAPER/wp:NOTDIRECTORY is about (it states "Contact information such as phone numbers, fax numbers and e-mail addresses is not encyclopedic.") Street addresses and coordinates are both included in many/most lists of buildings AFAIK but street addresses are omitted in some, e.g. List of National Historic Sites of Canada in Ontario. But only after coordinates were collected (by use of street addresses that used to be there, presumably, or at least are available in the linked individual National Historic Site articles, which do retain street addresses. It could be a future decision whether to drop street addresses later, for schools that have individual articles holding the addresses, or for all.
About table produced below with three data items, thanks, User:Bradv! Could the same be done but adding the street address, please?
Despite my suggestion of one format and set of columns/content, I would be very happy to see/consider/accept a different version, if anyone would care to compose one. Ordering of columns, which elements are included, color scheme, almost anything is open. Maybe I am over-the-top in liking to collect location info and photos? But those seem useful, fundamental to me in lists about buildings or places. Anyhow, I am aware that all list-articles that I create tend to look the same. :(
Using "District" rather than "Neighbourhood" for name of one column here would be fine by me, it doesn't matter. How is "Toronto" a neighborhood/district of Toronto, anyhow? --Doncram (talk) 00:29, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Doncram, the "neighbourhoods" are the former municipalities of the amalgamated city, and are still used by Canada Post. "District" could be fine too, but TDSB probably doesn't allocate them that way so the term would be ambiguous. I'm with Barkeep49 on not including street addresses to make it less of a directory. – bradv🍁 01:10, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

bradv🍁 00:13, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have BOLDly put it into the article. If Doncram or someone else wants to add another column or two for photos and notes I say great. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:19, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notes for notes column

[edit]

Hey, I added a Notes column to the mainspace list, in order to begin to collect useful info, but that was deleted. Or maybe my edit didn't save, i am not sure. Just to record for later:

  • For Agnes Macphail Public School, it is named for Agnes Macphail, first woman elected to House of Commons of Canada (no source needed, methinks)
  • For Alexander Muir schools, from the Alexander Muir article, support for two "named for" mentions (although the reference links are dead, the references are still valid):
    • Alexander Muir/Gladstone Ave Junior and Senior Public School, 108 Gladstone Ave., Toronto[1]
    • Alexmuir Junior Public School, 95 Alexmuir Blvd., Scarborough[2]
Hmm that is a list with addresses, helpful for readers to know where you are talking about....

I also added coordinates info for a few, which was deleted. :(

I guess i will wait to see what shakes out about acceptable content in discussion above. However, basically if there is a photos column I will tend to contribute photos, and the list-article will tend to look better and better. And if there is location column with street addresses, allowing coordinates, I will add coordinates. And the linked map will become awesome and useful and something that makes the Wikipedia list-article better/different than the school board's lookup page. And if not, I won't. --Doncram (talk) 00:45, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Doncram, do you need help adding a column for photos and notes? This is pretty easy to do in Visual Editor yourself or I would be happy to help you. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 17:17, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As for location info and date of founding/construction, I am not sure whether there is consensus yet on this page for allowing photos and notes. The idea of having more than four columns was called "insane" twice on this page. :( I don't want to add stuff only to have it deleted. Could these decisions be made, perhaps by polling on each separately, in the #columns for table section above? --Doncram (talk) 18:12, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Doncram, I think what was called insane was filling in all the test scores. Having two essentially optional columns seems far less insane :). Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 18:27, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Photos for photos column

[edit]
Walter Perry Junior Public School
Do you live in the city? I wonder how we would get images otherwise? Mattximus (talk) 14:31, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Well to start I would add photos for 30 to 40 of the schools listed on this page now, from those available online already at Wikimedia Commons ( commons.wikimedia.org ). Including in:
and at main category Category:Schools in Toronto
and in various other subcategories. So that would be photos for about 10 percent of the schools i would post immediately. Other editors would find more in Commons than I see immediately.
Then, sure, I might stop by schools to get new pictures. I don't like to disclose where I live, but I have taken pics in Ontario before (including, that reminds me, for a Roy Brown house which i think i never uploaded), and there are various sites in Ontario I would like to get to, and I might or might not take a bunch of school pics in Toronto.
But also over the course of the next year or so, many Wikipedia readers would notice the list-article and would contribute pics of the ones in their neighbourhoods, pics they have already or new snapshots they will get. Also various editors would show up, or could be invited, who upload historic photos from various sources, or who transfer photos over from Flickr or other websites where the photos were contributed with a compatible license. That's how it works for other list-articles of places. It's hard to predict, but I would guess getting about 50% coverage within a year would be likely.
Above, you noted reluctance to allow having a photo column. If there isn't one, there would continue to be random new contributions of photos to Commons at a slow rate, but I think this accelerated process basically wouldn't happen. --Doncram (talk) 15:47, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Photo in new article Corvette Junior Public School
By the way I notice that the photo in the new article for Corvette Junior Public School is not one of those in the Commons categories I would have searched immediately. It is included in Commons category "Elementary schools in Ontario and in Category:Education in Scarborough, Ontario. And the photo is used in List of schools in the former Scarborough Board of Education, which I was not aware of, and which has some more pics. In similar ways, more pics would be found.
Also, by the way, the former Scarborough list has street addresses, and a notes column, and a column about founding dates of schools, and the sky didn't crash down. :) --Doncram (talk) 16:07, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

new Corvette Junior Public School article

[edit]

I am surprised to notice new article for Corvette Junior Public School. That looks not notable to me; I think the term should be redirected to its row in this list-article's table. And its photo should be put into a photo column, and some of the info now in the article should be mentioned in a notes column. If we decide here to allow photos and notes to be included. I myself have never opened a deletion process about a school article, I think, but numerous other editors seem to specialize in that, and this article will indeed get noticed and nominated for deletion by SPEEDY DELETE or PROD or AFD process. If it goes to AFD, then based on what has happened for hundreds or thousands of AFDs on elementary schools so far, the decision for this one will be automatic ...it will be to redirect, with or without preservation of any of that info. --Doncram (talk) 15:47, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Most Junior schools are not notable (see WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES as evidence) and I see no reason to think this one is an exception. I have redirected it to this page. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 17:16, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I wonder if this is up for debate WP:NOTPAPER suggests there is no harm in having it. Mattximus (talk) 17:21, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Mattximus, I had not noticed who made the article when I redirected it, just saw Dom's notice here. To answer your question on the revert, yes we probably should redirect all the current schools which have articles to here. I had not planned to do so as they're older but feel we shouldn't be adding more. NOTPAPER doesn't mean we don't care about notability and elementary schools just aren't notable. Are you willing to undo your revert? If not I'm OK filing an AfD (but would prefer given how these discussions go as noted in SCHOOLOUTCOMES that we avoid doing so as not to spend community time on the topic).

Mattximus, I like what you've done for school coverage in Wikipedia, and I think your instinct about NOTPAPER and allowing articles is decent and good and would be reasonable in a normal world. But it happens that Wikipedia has been long dragged down by new articles about schools and discussions about deleting them, in literally many thousands of AFDs. There was a grand compromise for many years, that high school articles would be allowed automatically, and that lower-level school articles would not be allowed, and that worked well in many ways (including towards overcoming bias against articles outside U.S., U.K., Canada, and in not being mean to so many new editors who like to start by writing about their schools). In 2017, whether high schools would get an automatic pass was debated in a big way again (discussion linked in wp:SCHOOLOUTCOMES), and the outcome seems to have increased the threshold for high school articles, but consensus about primary schools was unchanged (that basically they are not to be accepted, unless there exists extra coverage like would exist for a school listed on a historic register so wp:GNG can be proven to be met). I personally happen to think Wikipedia is stupid for shooting itself in the foot, by turning off new editors, and I would allow any high school to be covered, like we do allow for coverage of all populated places (Wikipedia is a "gazetteer" about those) but my view is not the consensus.
Here, process-wise, it is fine for you to object to deletion/redirection of the new article. And it should be taken to AFD for objective-type discussion by uninvolved editors. Barkeep49 and I have our predictions about how that will turn out, but I think it would be educational in a good way, to inform our discussion about what this list-article should cover. If separate articles are allowed, it is not so important to allow pics and notes and location info here. We are not on the same page yet about those decisions.
About the other elementary school articles, unfortunately I think those should be AFD'd, one by one, also, sooner rather than later, because they all will be AFDd eventually. Maybe some of them can be saved by existence of substantial coverage in reliable sources, but it would be useful to establish what (probably small) percentage of separate articles will be allowed. --Doncram (talk) 17:57, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Very well, you can revert. I think I'm done with education articles on wikipedia, there is just too much hassle and argument and arbitrariness. 20:42, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

trying again (comment or else)

[edit]

Yay, the AFD was closed "Keep". Hey, the discussion of what columns to include in a table was incomplete. There were at least two comments about insanity, for what I consider pretty basic stuff in a table about places. Several editors did comment that they think it is fine to have a column for photos and/or a column for notes. I don't want to add stuff and have it be deleted. So, trying again, could we discuss, or not discuss, and if the latter I will proceed pretty much as planned previously. Hopefully previous objections no longer apply. Maybe some previous objection was due to wanting to get a complete list, which I think has been done.

1- Number -- this is not really data, it is just providing means for a reader/editor to confirm how many schools are listed. This is routine in many lists of places (including all the U.S. National Register of Historic Places lists).

2- Name -- in the list-article now, this is for name of each school, with wikilink if there exists an article for it or a redirect to some other article where it is covered. What was done in the list-article dropped wikilinks for a few elementary schools that have articles. I propose to restore those links, and to try to wikilink any others having articles. Or does someone object

3- Image -- everyone seems okay for photos to be included where available, knock on wood

4- Location -- there was some objection before, which I don't understand, unless it was belief that this is difficult to provide, and the other stuff should be done first, which has been done. Location is basic, is provided publicly by the school district, seems like something any reader would want to know. Location includes street address and coordinates, so that readers can look up what schools are in a given area by consulting the linked map (by {{GeoGroup}} template.

5- Neighbourhood -- in the list-article now. This might be used in future to indicate more specific official neighborhoods in Toronto, but is used now just to indicate the former school district (before amalgamation), and I would just leave it that way for now.

6- Enrollment/size. If there is a source giving number of students as of a given recent year or more specific date, to include with footnote to that source.

7- Grades -- in the list-article now, e.g. K-6. The list-article should cover all the schools having any grades in K-6 range, so some have some higher grades too.

8- Notes -- enables some more discussion where there is notable stuff to discuss, as an alternative to having a separate article created for the school. Can mention historic registry listing, for example. Or if there is too much to discuss, then the article should be created, and this is then a summary. May include an external link to any individual school's website, if there is one.

I would like to proceed again, will pause first for any discussion, objections, suggestions. --Doncram (talk) 00:07, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
