 * Delete, looks like a ten year old hoax, or vandalism, or good faith mistake. Their website is dead and I'm not convinced they ever existed. Szzuk (talk) 13:21, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete I agree with Szzuk's analysis. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  22:25, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment: The website is still operating, showing an address in a Glasgow commercial office and advertising a few events such as a presentation on "How to speake like a nativespeaker?" (sic): . AllyD (talk) 13:38, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
 * According to their website they offer "tuition free courses", and courses are "free to their members" - who pay £2850 for membership. I'm sure anyone can buy an unaccredited degree for a lot less. So not a hoax, more like a buy a degree website. Szzuk (talk) 19:22, 19 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete: A WP:SPA article on a business whose website is light on detail of degree accreditation (as well as featuring "Lorem ipsum" placeholder text and "Unrolled 20000" which is presumably a claim of student numbers ). My searches are not finding evidence that this business meets the WP:NCORP or WP:GNG criteria. AllyD (talk) 13:51, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete: So the website still functions but this so-called university surely cannot be notable. It has a photo of Michelle Obama holding a "certificate" on the "Apply" page. This is just a regular small-time business. JamesMatthews01 (talk) 03:09, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete this is an institution scam, not an article that is a hoax, but the coverage does not show this scam is notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:28, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Astute point by John Pack Lambert. This is not a particularly well-known scam and so is not notable. JamesMatthews01 (talk) 01:38, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Dubious notability. D4iNa4 (talk) 16:06, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete As argued well by contributors above this is not a notable subject. Dunarc (talk) 20:55, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. WP:SNOW applies. AmericanAir88(talk) 02:41, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
