I just thought of an argument that articles about schools are maintainable (on the hypothesis that CZ will grow to WP size in a few years). It is that, at any given school, there is bound to be some kid who wants to add The article about his school to CZ. Then, because CZ will become famous and influential, his teachers will look at it, look at our rules about articles about schools, and clean it up.

- I was wondering if I should add it or not, however I added it for two reasons:
- One, I felt that I had some good quality content. I started the same article on Wikipedia, but people just added stuff until it became bloated.
- Two, an IB conference was held at Somerset, which I feel makes it notable.

this has not been changed substantially from Wikipedia
