L.J.D. College

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

There is no text in this article, just bare lists and a couple of sentence fragments. None of it is supported by any sources at all. There is no context as to why this place should be considered notable enough for inclusion or how it meets notability guidelines. A search in Google News found no references to it at all. It is also worth noting that the username of the editor who wrote the article is identical to the claimed Chairman of this college (though he removed the COI tag). The same article with a slight variation of the name ("LJD College") was previously Speedy Deleted. | Gronk Oz (talk) 07:03, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep as a degree-awarding institution per longstanding precedent and consensus. Poor article, but clearly exists. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:06, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment: That consensus (as outlined in Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes) is that "most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions and high schools are usually kept..." (my emphasis). It is not a guarantee that every article about such institutions are always kept; there is room for discussion.  There is no indication that this institution is "independently accredited". IMhO, even if it was accredited this article is below the standard of what is worth keeping: it is nothing more than a promotional listing written by the person who runs it. --Gronk Oz (talk) 01:42, 8 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Weak Keep Needs cleanup if it is notable. Unsure if it is notable, but willing to give it a chance if it can be cleaned up. South Nashua (talk) 16:43, 8 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment: The same editor has since created two other articles with the same content, LJD College, Falta and LJD College,Falta South 24 Parganas. Both have been marked for speedy deletion. --Gronk Oz (talk) 11:55, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep this page as it seems to be a real thing. I deleted the other reproductions. Perhaps L.J.D. College-Falta could be a redirect as it seems to be an official name. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:14, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
