 * Redirect to Thalore. All the sources in the article are directory listings, with the exception of the football report. Seems unlikely to pass sourcing requirements of GNG. Reliable sourced facts such as pupil numbers, date founded, management, affiliations can be added on the target page. Rupples (talk) 21:33, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Draftify or else Redirect per Rupples. I think drafitify may be a better option in this case as the page is a new creation, having been started on 13 January. Indian schools can be vexing - I have said it elsewhere - as it can be hard to find the level of sourcing required in English language sources. Nevertheless, per Rupples, the sources on the page do not pass muster and neither can I find much elsewhere. I did, however, discover a bit more by also searching for "Deepthi HSS" and "Deepthi HS, Thalore". Still no secondary sources, and what is on the web is all quite recent. I wondered if the foundation date was right, and found this page which suggests it is not. That gives a date of 2002 for the establishment of the school. Also the numbers seem inflated, as sources I found suggested 300 students. It could have grown though. All the same, as it stands, there are significan concerns both about notibility but also about the reliability of the information. As such, this is not ready for mainspace. It may just be TOOSOON for the school, although if it has been around for 20 years (at least) and is really as large as claimed, it may be secondary sources will come to light and an encylopaedic and accurate page can be written. As such, I would encourage the page creator to develop it in draft space. Alternatively we can redirect it until such a time as information comes to light to fix and expand it.

 * @Sirfurboy: I had earlier tried to draftify this article before taking it to AFD. But it was of no use, as the article creator had reverted it. Maliner (talk) 10:08, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know. In that case updating my !vote to redirect per Rupples. AfD can still specify draftification, but in view of the fact this would likely be ignored again, and the page moved back to mainspace, let's go straight to redirect.
