Motithang higher secondary school

Fails WP:NSCHOOL as the sources are all from the school itself or from the local area the school is in Palmtree5551 (talk) 22:00, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by Nominator I seem to be misunderstanding consensus notability policies here (as pointed out by several editors on this discussion) and thus I should never have nominated this for deletion Palmtree5551 (talk) 18:05, 14 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep. The school exists, and by general consensus, secondary schools are notable. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:48, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. I am not comfortable with the speed with which this school has been nominated, a few hours after creation, and there is no evidence of WP:BEFORE due diligence. We have precious few articles on schools in Bhutan and it is not surprising that sources have yet to be identified. We keep high schools because experience shows that, with enough research, sources can almost invariably be found that meet WP:ORG. Google is a poor tool for finding sources on schools in such parts of Asia. Very few have much of an Internet presence. We need to avoid systemic bias and allow time for local hard-copy and local language sources to be investigated. The Whispering Wind (talk) 02:06, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
