This article was nominated (result Keep) a few weeks ago, to light comment. However, noting that the article has been edited by the same user who created Swedish College of Engineering and Technology (Wah) (also see for current AfD), an apparently (my analysis) fraudulent non-entity also nominated some weeks under a slightly different name (result: Delete), I decided to check a little deeper...and all we have to work with here are a website even less polished than the "Swedish" one, and an address (which Google map's satellite zoom centers on a dirt field; there are some multi-story buildings nearby, but the surrounding area is agricultural, not urban). Google has no news, book or scholar matches (the only "hit" was a PDF with a false-positive to similarly named but different school in India). Given these reasons, I feel extra vigilance is warranted, and that all Punjab-related institutional articles merit close attention for fraudulent claims.

 * Keep I found this job offer from the college. I reckon it's a clue for its existence because the |paperpkblog.com seems to be ranked among the relatively visited web sites in Pakistan. So it should be kept per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Mhhossein (talk) 05:13, 2 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep per SCHOOLOUTCOMES. – Davey 2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 05:18, 2 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment: I want evidence this place actually exists, and isn't just another diploma mill (let alone one for H-1B visa fraud). Show us the alumni. Show us scholarly output. Show us something notable.--Раціональне анархіст (talk) 06:37, 2 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete The advert noted above by User:Mhhossein is WP:Original research and is not WP:Reliable source. Basing an article on it would be WP:Crystal because it appears the school is not yet operative. GeorgeLouis (talk) 06:42, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
 * How did you find it as an original research? Mhhossein (talk) 12:29, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
 * The original research policy dictates article content contributed by Wikipedia editors. It has absolutely nothing to do with the validity of different types of sources. I don't see what GeorgeLouis is talking about. CtP  (t • c) 17:42, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep Are you suggesting this college does not exist? It is ranked here (http://www.webometrics.info/en/asia/bangladesh%20) and here (http://www.4icu.org/reviews/7601.htm). They even list some phone numbers on there website if you wanted to call and verify they are in fact an extant college (http://www.iutoic-dhaka.edu). Piboy51 (talk) 15:40, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment The links you provide seem to point to Islamic University of Technology. Is that the same as Islam College of Engineering and Technology? Natg 19 (talk) 00:57, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I didn't notice. I rescind my comment. Piboy51 (talk) 17:52, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: It seems an accredited degree-awarding institution and should be kept per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Mhhossein (talk) 03:53, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Accredited by whom? Link? PianoDan (talk) 19:43, 19 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete "If no independent, third-party, reliable sources can be found on a topic, then Wikipedia should not have an article on it." (WP:ORG) --Anders Feder (talk) 23:58, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Insufficient coverage in reliable sources to support notability. School outcomes does not apply as there independent sources indicating that the school exists, or that it is accredited, or that it has conferred any degrees.  B E C K Y S A Y L E S  04:51, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
