Schools deleted

[edit]

According to Wikipedia's criterion for disambiguation pages for sets of initials, WP:DABABBREV, "Do not add articles to abbreviation or acronym disambiguation pages unless the target article includes the acronym or abbreviation—we are resolving an ambiguity, not making yet another dictionary of abbreviations." I have checked a random selection of school articles linked, and most don't verifiably state that the schools are known by the initials. Rather than go through them one by one, I have deleted the lot. By all means reinstate a school, but if and only if the linked article verifiably supports the use of initials. (While it's very likely that the school newsletter will talk of THS, the issue is whether the term will be used, without explanation, in, say, a local newspaper.)
