Proposed deletion
why is der a proposal for deletion? Prasoonpradeep (talk) 08:06, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Please the notability guidelines: WP:N and WP:ORG. An article like this needs a reliable source that has written something significant about an organization. Johnuniq (talk) 08:14, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

How do I do that? add references?Prasoonpradeep (talk) 08:21, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes. There is no need to format them if you don't want, just include an accurate description of the reference (title, author, publisher, page number), or a link to some site. Ideally, you would include some fact from the reference in the article, with the reference after the fact. There are a lot of details that you can ignore for now at WP:CITE.

Can you tell me how to do this? or maybe show an example?Prasoonpradeep (talk) 08:36, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * At the bottom of the article, you can click the "Categories" to see similar articles. For example Category:Kendriya Vidyalaya which includes several links, including Kendriya Vidyalaya Malleswaram. That article is very weak and is not a good example of how this article should be fixed, but it gives an idea. Try the other links to try and find a school with a "References" section. Note that current requirements for what is an acceptable article are more strict than they were at the time some of the older articles were created.
 * Has any media outlet written something about the school? Ideally, it would be in English, but any language is fine. If you post a link here, I might be able to make a suggestion for how to use it if you don't want to do that yourself.
 * Please see WP:TALK for how to indent your replies: put a colon (':') at the beginning of the reply to indent once; two colons for twice, etc. Put a space before the four tildes for your signature. Johnuniq (talk) 02:30, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

Copyright violations
I have removed a significant amount of text from the article because it had been copied from pages at http://www.kvmalappuram.gov.in/ (material on websites is assumed to be copyrighted, and cannot be used here unless certain procedures for donating the material are followed). However, the material also needed to be removed because it is not appropriate for an encyclopedic article here as it conflicted with policies such as neutral point of view.
