Metropolitan School Of Business Management

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

After receiving a spam email offering me a four day "Special Executive MBA" I was very surprised to find a Wikipedia article on this "school". Article was created by a blocked sock abusing user and the prod tag was removed by another blocked sock-puppeteer. Fails WP:NSCHOOL and WP:ORG. Only sources are primary sources or PR puff pieces. Amazed it's lasted this long. Glen (talk) 07:32, 25 November 2022 (UTC) Relisting comment: Already PROD'd, not eligible for Soft Deletion. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read!

 * Delete - in addition to very dubious claims to notability on the page which do not appear to be backed up by any RS I can find, there also seems to be significant areas of misinformation. Specifically the claim that the qualifications are awarded by the OTHM does not seem to be based on anything as the subject is not in the database of centres and the link to the NCC is broken 1. I can't see any evidence for the claim that their qualifications lead to degrees or masters qualifications from top UK universities. The address on the WP page appears to be a service office 1 which might be understandable if they weren't claiming to be an educational establishment. I just checked the UK gov site and they are not listed as being able to award degrees and in another database is not listed as being a sponsoring body, so cannot recruit foreign students and support their visa applications. I therefore think that their website is at best misleading and having a WP page may well be giving them unwarranted credibility where that is not deserved. JMWt (talk) 09:13, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
