Hi Nghinyengwasha, instead of signing up at Wikipedia:School and university projects/Polytechnic of Namibia you created a new page, Wikipedia:Schools and university projects/Polytechnic of Namibia (with "Schools" in plural). I have changed your new page into a redirect page. As I do not know which group you are in, please be so kind to sign up again, this time at the right page ;) Cheers, Pgallert (talk) 13:33, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Onamunama Combined School

The article Onamunama Combined School has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

lack of notability; speedy deletion criterion A7 does not apply to schools.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Bk314159 (Talk to me and find out what I've done) 14:10, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Oshakati Senior Secondary School, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Please understand - they have to be published references - something that other people can look up, such as in a library or on the Web. Also, please read WP:NOR, and WP:OWN; saying "The high school I attended" isn't a good idea here. This is an encyclopedia, not a blopg site. Best wsihes.
