Chittagong Muslim High School

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The page has no notability, and nothing in it is verifiable. It seems to be 100% a tl;dr self-shrine. [nomination retracted] Wer900 talkessay on the definition of consensus 00:13, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Per WP:COMMONOUTCOMES any verifiable high school has been kept in AFDs of recent years. Are you claiming this institution, said to date back to 1909, does not exist, and the article is a hoax? If not a "Keep" decision is appropriate. Edison (talk) 00:56, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per Edison and the nom's curious "too long, didn't read" and non-"verifiable" rationale. Good work by by Edison. --Oakshade (talk) 02:05, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep as verifiable and longstanding AfD precedent. Now, with that out of the way, perhaps we can figure out if this is exact correct name of the school.  I think this actually may be "Chittagong Government Muslim High School" see  (2009 Daily Star article citing 100 year anniversary which matches this article's info re school founding), List of schools in Bangladesh (which has ""Chittagong Government Muslim High School" albeit with a claimed 1907 founding date), and this Govt. muslim high school,chittagong (which was moved to current article location without a redirect).--Milowent • hasspoken  13:35, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep - Large, historic school clearly of regional importance - the way forward is to clean up and source not to delete. TerriersFan (talk) 02:25, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep High schools are generally de facto notable, the article does have some verifiability, and I have removed most if not all of the promotional text. OSbornarfcontribs. 03:23, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep: This is one of the most well known high schools in Chittagong. The school is also referred to in Bangladeshi media in a lot of different ways (Muslim High School, Chittagong Muslim High School, Government Muslim High School, Chittagong Govt. Muslim High school. etc.). I would also mention there that while I wasn't a student of this school, I can confirm by firsthand experience that this is one of the most notable and historic educational institutions in Chittagong as well as Bangladesh. --Ragib (talk) 04:56, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Of course. Secondary schools are generally considered to be notable enough for articles. -- Necrothesp (talk) 00:11, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
