Setting aside this article's other issues, from its very first revision it has contained the line "Note: This university is completely fictional." Even if this is a real institution, there doesn't seem to be too much to salvage here. Nick Number (talk) 22:01, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as a blatant hoax (WP:G3); the author explicitly admitted to creating a hoax article. It doesn’t seem to be discussing a university from a work of fiction. 165.91.13.168 (talk) 22:37, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Not Sure- It has a website, but beyond that I can't really verify anything. The website looks legit, but I just don't know, I don't think speedy delete is appropriate because someone may come up with more information that would allow us determine if it exists or not.--Rusf10 (talk) 00:13, 1 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete a lack of sources to verrify its status.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:42, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep One should not attach any significance to the fact that the infobox in the first revision contained the words "Note: This university is completely fictional." That was copied directly from the "University of Illyria" example in Template:Infobox university, probably without understanding what it meant or why it was there. The article is not a hoax. The institute is an affiliated college of National University, albeit not an important or well-known one. As to the article's other issues, feel free to gut it of anything unsourced, unintelligible, or unencyclopedic - we at WikiProject Bangladesh do that all the time to articles about educational institutions in Bangladesh. --Worldbruce (talk) 20:33, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Ahh, that does make sense. Its purpose was difficult to fathom. Nick Number (talk) 23:23, 5 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep Not a hoax, and we generally assume universities and colleges are notable and articles are kept on that precedence.Vinegarymass911 (talk) 05:25, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep- as long as we are sure it exists then we should keep.--Rusf10 (talk) 05:33, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
