WikiProject NRHP assessment edit

It's been suggested that the current version of this article be reassessed by the Wikipedia:WikiProject_National_Register_of_Historic_Places/Assessment#Quality_scale WikiProject NRHP quality scale. I've looked it over, and don't believe that a ranking higher than stub is justified.

Per "More detailed criteria" at the quality scale, a start-class article includes "[a]t least one important aspect of the topic covered in reasonable detail". I don't see that here. The discussion of architecture consists of two sentences, and doesn't mention the interior at all. The discussion of history tells us that the school was built in 1889, then jumps to 1988. We're told that the building is listed in the NRHP, but not why.

Given their brevity and incompleteness, I don't think that the treatment of either history or architecture satisfies the "reasonable detail" criterion. Unless and until at least one of these is expanded, I think the article must retain its stub classification. — Ammodramus (talk) 12:26, 17 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
