Ibn Sina Medical College
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

appears to be a legit degree-granting institution, but there is nothing notable about it. I searched google, google books, and news and found no independent sources discussing this institution Jytdog (talk) 16:14, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Keep:- per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions and high schools are being kept except when zero independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 21:00, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Hm. Thanks for linking to that.  That is bizarre - there are no sources from which to build an article. Let's change direction on that, shall we?  Jytdog (talk) 21:12, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by That is bizarre - there are no sources from which to build an article ??? What about Progress bangladesh, Arab News, The daily star, All Bangladesh and Somoy Tv? Are they not sources? A stub is an article and that can be built from any of the sources provided above. If the unsourced claims in the article seemed dubious, that can easily be removed per WP:UNSOURCED. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 22:16, 11 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep, of course, as standard practice. I really do not know why this is nominated. We can and should have articles on every university and every freestanding school of medicine or other university level professional school. (In the case of med schools that are parts of universities, we generally make separate articles on them as ell, if there is enough information--but this is free standing, so even if the information were minimal, there would be no suitable merge).

 * I do not see why WIkipedia should be a directory of all colleges by default -- WP:NOTDIRECTORY.  Wikicology, typically we require there to be sufficient independent sources from which to construct an article - the crime and strike sources you provided are each just a passing mention and wouldn't justify an article for any other kind of place, and the arab news article you cite is about a different college in Saudi Arabia.  But it seems there is some bias (?) toward universities that makes us have very low standards for them. C'est la Wikipedia and I bow to the community.  Please consider this AfD withdrawn.

 * thanks for letting me know about the Arab news. Same name and same type of school, so I didn't bother to look closely. Since you had withdrawn your nomination, am glad to close this debate. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 23:29, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
