The result was redirect‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ to IIT Madras. with the option of merging encyclopedic content that doesn't exist at the target. In a case such as this meeting WP:GNG isn't enough; those arguing to keep must demonstrate the need for a standalone article, as opposed to covering the same content in the closely related parent article. No such demonstration has been made here. Vanamonde93 (talk) 22:00, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

 * This is an international campus of IIT Madras that was started in collaboration between the Government of India and Zanzibar. There are many other pages existing on Wikipedia that serve as extensions of their main campuses, for example, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani – Dubai Campus. International campuses operate with a certain level of autonomy or have distinct programs, faculty, or initiatives that are noteworthy enough to merit their own Wikipedia page.

 * I think I'm also leaning merge - although I'm not sure it is as clear as others are suggesting above. For one thing it is set up as a educational institute between the governments and the IIT, which seems to be well noted in the mainstream Indian press. I agree that there is little critical information in the news articles, but I think it is likely that more references will emerge in 2024 and there may well be enough to justify a page before long.
