Herbert Hoover High School (Glendale) → Herbert Hoover High School (Glendale, California) – The city article title is Glendale, California (using the AP style guide), and so it should be disambiguated the same way.

- Support - consistent with the city and the other high schools by the same name elsewhere in California. estar8806 (talk) ★ 00:03, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Just as a point of information, the other two schools in California (San Diego and Fresno) are at the longer titles only because they were subject to undiscussed moves from their shorter titles in the past. Station1 (talk) 20:09, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Question: Does MOS:USPLACE always apply inside of the parentheses used for disambiguation terms? There are a lot of city-only disambiguators that don't seem to follow that, such as University High School (Fresno), California Street (Huntsville), Edge of Hell (Kansas City), Unicorn Theatre (Kansas City), Galleria (Lexington), Robinson Center (Little Rock), Elm Street Methodist Church (Nashville), Franklin College (Nashville), University High School (San Juan), University High School (Tolleson), Pueblo High School (Tucson), University High School (Tucson). I think there are hundreds of them – maybe thousands. It is arguably WP:OVERPRECISION. — BarrelProof (talk) 04:36, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- WP:USPLACE does not apply to disambiguation. There was an RfC about that a while back as it applies to county courthouses at least. High School disambiguation is not consistent, but is usually just the state where that's sufficient.[1] Otherwise it's sometimes just the city and sometimes "city, state",[2][3] although the latter is often due to undiscussed moves.[4][5][6] Station1 (talk) 20:09, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Weak oppose as WP:OVERPRECISION. Per Station1, MOS:USPLACE-style inclusion of state names is not required inside of disambiguation terms, and per my prior observation above, many articles do not do that. Inconsistency among California Herbert Hoover high schools can be resolved by reverting prior undiscussed moves of other articles. — BarrelProof (talk) 19:34, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
