List of colleges and universities in American Samoa

 * – ( View AfD View log )

There is exactly one real life accredited institution in American Samoa, the American Samoa Community College. A list should at the very least have more than one entry in it. Admittedly there's a fictional "University of American Samoa" that is briefly mentioned in the Breaking Bad universe but it isn't a real school.

 * Keep


 * We need this template to stay complete, can't have one thing missing from it.  D r e a m Focus  01:53, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Why not just make it a redirect to Lists of universities and colleges by country. That way you keep the bluelink without the single entry list. Ajf773 (talk) 05:23, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Or maybe Lists of American universities and colleges. Ajf773 (talk) 08:47, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Agree, just have the template link to American Samoa Community College though.  D r e a m Focus  12:02, 21 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete A "list" with a single entry is not a list. Lists need multiple entries. The notion that the "completeness" of some template requires keeping this list is without merit. Just remove American Samoa from the template. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  02:27, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete American Samoa Community College specifically says that it is the only institute of higher education in the territory. Essentially like WP:SMALLCAT. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 03:21, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. The template could just point to the community college, but remain pipelined as "American Samoa". The same situation/solution (with the template) seems to apply to the Northern Marianas (currently wrongly linked to Education in the Northern Mariana Islands, which doesn't mention the only college I could find ) and Northern Marianas College.

 * Delete A single article in a list isn't really a list and it doesn't look like there's any way to expand it since there's only one university in American Samoa. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:01, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - It's not really a list when it has only one entry. --MuZemike 15:59, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
