List of schools in Thailand

Although the list has been expanded since its previous deletion request, it still fails to serve the purposes outlined under WP:LIST. Information provided by the list is severely limited, as the list is and will probably forever remain grossly incomplete. The list contains 126 schools out of more than 36,000 in Thailand, and does not have any inclusion criteria regarding notability or importance, which makes the inclusion of each school in the list next to meaningless to the reader. A majority of the entries may have been advertisement/publicity attempts, as they were added by anonymous users with no other contributions. Since WP:NOT any expansion of the list in its current form will probably be in vain. Also, the only navigational benefit this list currently provides is to sort Thai school articles by type and region, but this is also limited due to the fact that the list is not a proper topic list and is predominated by entries without corresponding articles. This function can be replaced by categorization without any significant disadvantage, since the list is not otherwise sorted. Paul_012 (talk) 14:00, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. Information on Thai schools is good, but a list of a handful of (presumably nn) schools just isn't the way to go. CRGreathouse (t | c) 20:41, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
