Feasibility
Here is a perfect test case for my own principles regarding article "feasibility." It seems to me that if we can have an article about Kilmer Middle School, we need to be able to have articles about every Middle School in the U.S., and equivalent schools in other English-speaking countries (at least!). And we need to be able to keep all such articles current (so the teacher lists don't go out of date) and otherwise of reasonably high quality.
