Paolo VI College

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Looking at the non-independent source provided, it looks more like a dormitory then a educational institute. Therefore, not notable Night of the Big Wind  talk  22:01, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

They are a mix because they offers courses in addition to courses of the university. So i think they can be considered notable. Paolo VI College can be consider important for the building, which was built by Gio Ponti. The structure is famous in Milan--Cormeo (talk) 22:13, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Not impossible, but you should proof is with reliable and independent third party sources. The website of the university is not sufficient for that. If the building is notable, it deserves its own article, the building does not make the college notable! Night of the Big Wind  talk  22:26, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Close I couldn't quickly tell if this is a part of the Milan campus and should be merged to the main article, or if it is a separate campus that has independent status as a degree-granting institution, but either way there is no deletion to discuss here.  It is called a college, so it is not a dormitory.  Unscintillating (talk) 23:33, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose premature close based on the name alone. Night of the Big Wind  talk  00:10, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

 * As far as I can tell, its nature is akin to that of the various Colleges of Oxford or Cambridge, a partially autonomous residential and teaching institution as part of a larger university. We almost always keep those articles, if the institution is important and substantial, and there is enough to say. This is a famous university, and there is enough to say, though the current page needs great expansion. What the Italian encyclopedia did is not relevant--wee are considerably more inclusive for academic institutions than most other WPs. There are many other possible sources than newspapers; for European universities, most of them will be paper.  DGG ( talk ) 17:16, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect and cover it with a couple of sentences in Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore. As far I can see zero significant news/books sources, no need of a separate article. Cavarrone (talk) 19:58, 27 February 2012 (UTC)


 * this is a prove of the courses of this college. it's in italian. http://www.istitutotoniolo.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/brochure-ALTE-SCUOLE-e-Collegi-LD-2010.pdf --79.45.147.28 (talk) 20:58, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
 * What part of "independent, reliable, third-party sources" (indipendenti, affidabili e fonti di terze parti) do you not understand?


 * the church and the college are a unique structure  http://www.thais.it/citta_italiane/Milano/Architettura/GioPonti/Architettura_Mi/schede/scheda031.htm  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.5.206.148 (talk) 23:05, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
 * As said before, a building does not make an organisation notable. But you can try to write an article about the building. Night of the Big Wind  talk  08:06, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep, and, as Big Wind suggested, focus the article on the building as well as the college. It's a frequent expedient here in similar cases. Major constituent colleges of major universities are notable, & I think this qualifies as such.  DGG ( talk ) 07:30, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Even with the added sources it looks more like a social institute: providing lodging, religious services and social activities. Night of the Big Wind  talk  10:27, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep it's a college of a prestigious university. so it's notable like all the other voices on colleges.--Cormeun (talk) 23:26, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
