List of engineering colleges in Nepal

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It is trivial, serves no purpose, unsourced. Very little coverage, most likely promotional Dikaiosyni (talk) 17:03, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Articles for deletion/Log/2020 July 3.  —cyberbot I   Talk to my owner :Online 17:17, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Question How is this "promotional"? It's a list of colleges that exist, not a brochure saying how great any of them are. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 19:33, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Merge to List of engineering schools List of universities and colleges in Nepal. I'm not sure if Nepal needs its own list. Ajf773 (talk) 02:43, 4 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep database too valuable to purge. nirmal (talk) 06:02, 4 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Merge to List of universities and colleges in Nepal. NavjotSR (talk) 04:48, 5 July 2020 (UTC)


 * I think you should update your rationale. NavjotSR (talk) 04:50, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Right list. Also suggest to reformate to table instead of a bulleted list. nirmal (talk) 08:43, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Consider it done. Ajf773 (talk) 08:00, 12 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep as there are plenty of qualifying articles to merit a standalone list; see Category:Engineering universities and colleges in Nepal. Merging to List of universities and colleges in Nepal would be the next best alternative. postdlf (talk) 19:59, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep-- Don't see any valid reason given for deletion. There are enough articles that belong to this list to justify its existence. This list needs a well-defined criterion of inclusion and cleanup; but AFD is WP:NOTCLEANUP. Usedtobecool ☎️ 09:53, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to List of universities and colleges in Nepal This is a case of WP:NOT and also an obvious content fork. WP is not a directory . My very best wishes (talk) 02:44, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , not all lists are WP:!, or we would not have Stand-alone lists at all, of which we currently have 3600+ featured. Since this is not a list of shades of colors of apple sauce, I think the burden is on you to properly argue, not just assert, that this is an indiscriminate list (WP:SALAT). Regards!

 * Why this is not a legitimate list, but an example of "directory"? This is because: (a) we already have the List of universities and colleges in Nepal, (b) this list include a lot of non-notable Colleges we do not have any pages about (the Colleges with pages are included already to the List of universities and colleges in Nepal), (c) the list does not provide any information about these colleges (how about phone numbers?), (d) the list is completely unsourced. Basically, this page looks like a copy-paste from a phone book. WP:TNT. My very best wishes (talk) 14:25, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
