 * comment I haven't yet done my own search for sources. From the description this could be notable, but clear evidence of that is needed. DES (talk) 02:34, 7 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment - the SPA has now added some references but none of them appear to demonstrate the required notability.--ukexpat (talk) 12:46, 7 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete: sources are primary; press releases, pseudo-press releases, brief mentions. Interesting comment here about the org.'s PR push...I guess Wikipedia articles are part of the strategy. Vrac (talk) 12:56, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Hmm perhaps that should be cited in the article, is studyrama.com a WP:RS do you know? DES (talk) 16:19, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
 * No, it's an example of what I meant by a pseudo-press release, what they call a "publi-reportage" in French, it's basically a press release made to look like a news story. Language such as this "[le logo]...souligne le dynamisme et le caractère innovant de l’école. Les majuscules transmettent les notions de stabilité et de fiabilité d’une institution de qualité" is a good example, not the kind of thing an RS would write. (Apologies for the French if you don't speak that language, Google translate will still give you the gist...) Vrac (talk) 16:42, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as per nom. Vrac's comment on "publi-reportage" is also very telling. Search turned up no noticeable coverage.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:32, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
