notable the subject should be. Of course this would be impossible to define precisely, but there are a number of ways I can think of that we could pin it down fairly well. Certainly much better than now, where there's not even a policy that says whether or not the subject needs to be notable at all. Also, we'd need to settle the whole "list" question as soon as possible, and more...
I still vote for "verifiable". Someday we'll have all of the elementary schools, and good for us. But we shouldn't let crap slip in because of our generosity either. This is what "verifiable" does.
Is that criterion still in use on VfD?
