Delete, fails WP:CORP Two editors, Myself and an administrator believes this should have been an A7 csd because it has not asserted notability at all but due to the minutia of policy wankery we find ourselves at AFD. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 13:37, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:OUTCOMES and the fact that not many Chinese secondary schools get mentioned in the New York Times. Secondary schools do not need to claim notability. Also likely to be sources under its Chinese name. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:54, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep. All high schools are notable. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 23:58, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * It's not a high school. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 02:47, 20 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep. It might not be a high school by some standards - an article in The Hindu says "the students must finish middle school and then pass a special entrance examination," followed by a "two-year training period, which includes an internship". . But I think it passes the general notability guideline by virtue of non-trivial coverage in the NYT, the Hindu, and China Daily . Novickas (talk) 23:17, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - already passes WP:ORG even without a search for sources in Chinese. Getting such international coverage, also, is unusual and significant for a school of this type. The Whispering Wind (talk) 02:17, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
