List of countries by women's average years in school

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The list only cites one source, and the source does not contain the data. The closest thing I could find on the cited site are stats for the ratio of time women spend in school compared to men by country. The list is therefore unconfirmed and may be misinformation. – XYZt (talk  &#124;  contribs) – 07:54, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * What other sources might be available for the data? Did you follow WP:BEFORE? Deletion is only an answer if the topic is inappropriate and/or there are no sources that verify the information. We don't delete content for problems that can be fixed. postdlf (talk) 16:43, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: the source contains the data, so the nomination is invalid. I've added a note to the talk page to explain the route to find it. Pam  D  11:42, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment. The list is interesting, but the single source does not seem to satisfy WP:RS. The website was constructed in a such way that does not allow linking to specific tables. These data can be found in source, but how reliable they are? For example, it tells that women in Kyrgyzstan spend 14 years in school (?!). This is based on another original source, i.e. : http://ghdx.healthdata.org/record/ihme-data/global-educational-attainment-1970-2015, and it is not clear where these data even came from (see this disclaimer). Without referencing to specific publications (which would qualify as RS), those are data of highly questionable origin. My very best wishes (talk) 01:34, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is one particular study for one particular year for women 25-34, which is too restrictive to be of much value per WP:SALAT. It also means the article title is misleading. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:42, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete In its current form, the article is not reliably sourced. The title is misleading and makes a bigger claim than its sources can support.
