 * Keep. Secondary schools are generally considered to be notable. Being unsourced is irrelevant. A quick Google search will establish that the school exists. That's sufficient for the article to be kept. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:25, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
 * An SNG is only a presumption of notability, but that presumption is not allowed to be used as an indefinite "get out of jail free card". The editors of the article have had since March 2009 to convert the presumption into definitive evidence. It's time to deliver the goods. BTW I would like to actually see this widely alleged SNG for high schools. Roger (talk) 16:04, 16 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep - We keep high schools for the very good reason that experience shows that, with enough research, sources can invariably be found that meet WP:ORG. Google is a very poor tool for finding sources on Bangladeshi schools because, unlike US schools, they don't dump everything on the Internet. Indeed, very few have much of an Internet presence at all. We must avoid systemic bias and allow time for local sources to be researched since no evidence has been adduced that this school cannot meet notability requirements.

 * So just how much time must we allow? IMHO Three years is more than enough to come up with the goods - even in Bangladesh. (For the record - I'm not American.) Roger (talk) 16:48, 16 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep, as per the current consensus. Q: How much time should we wait for this to be referenced? A: A reasonable amount of time might be, until every school in Bangladesh has reliable internet access, and the Bangladeshi government has a central website listing every school in the country. If it still can't be referenced by that time, then delete.  For the record, I can name a first-world 7 to 10 school that doesn't have a website.--Shirt58 (talk) 08:05, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
