Rohtas Educational and Associated Programs

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Yes, it exists but fails to meet the notability guidelines. Per standing consensus that schools must prove notability. The Banner talk 11:34, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep, have you read the article or just looked at the title? This is not a school, but a community organisation, that, in addition to health centers, women's self-help groups, sanitation projects, theatre programs, and adult education courses, and a library, manages a few primary schools. Even if we did not almost always keep school articles for high schools, about 10% of what  you said is correct, for we normally do not keep primary schools, but merge them into the parent organisation or school district.  This would be a good place to merge those primary schools.  DGG  DGG ( talk ) 17:03, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Most of their work is educational. And they fail WP:GNG big time. The Banner talk 18:10, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
 * , you have quite a reputation as a hard-line school-inclusionist (and I will not delve into another fruitless debate about it.....) but from what point of time have you started !voting keep on every article about NGOs etc. which is tangentially connected to education?! And, do you seriosuly mean that for every primary school chain, we need an article about the organization just because we need some place to redirect those primary schools into.The geographical areas are enough good as redirect-targets and will spare us a (most likely) non-notable crappy article.
 * For the record, I concur with Jacknstock in it's entirety and will note Banner's nomination statement is not to the point either. This shall be treated as a clear cut case of NCORP. ~ Winged Blades Godric
 * Comment What I see is a social welfare organization in an impoverished district where sources are likely to be in Bhojpuri or Hindi. Someone who can search for information in one or both of these languages could be helpful. Jack N. Stock (talk) 15:55, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I will try to find local sources, in a day or two's time.Initial results are not any satisfactory. ~ Winged Blades Godric 17:21, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Per WP:NGO, it is clearly not national or international, so it looks like it would need to be a "nationally well-known local organization" or have received "widespread attention" to have a stand-alone article. Organizations in India with national media interest usually have good coverage in English language sources. It seems to me that the best outcome might be merge with Rohtas district. Jack N. Stock (talk) 18:29, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Surely a merge with Rohtas district would fall foul of WP:UNDUE? The organisation under consideration here may or may not be notable, but if it is not notable then it is certainly not important enough to include in a general article about a district. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:14, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
 * It would likely be a selective merge WP:SMERGE. The scope depends on how influential the NGO is in the district, which requires research. Sufficient notability for a separate article is not required for inclusion in a more general article – for example, the article already mentions a coal depot and a couple of railway stations that seem to lack sufficient notability for their own articles. This is what is suggested at WP:NGO. Jack N. Stock (talk) 21:30, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete--I found a lone trivial mention in Dainik Jagran whence numerous people from different NGOs, operating in Bihar has commented about social menaces.Otherwise, a pretty good vacuum.Jesuit-sources are cross-promotional and fails the rigor of reliable sources. ~ Winged Blades Godric 04:13, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete, as per Godric's search of local-language sources. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 06:42, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment--It is necessary to look for printed local sources. have you done that? and have you looked for even online sources for the component parts, about which information could be merged here?  DGG ( talk ) 17:59, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Did you look for printed local sources, DGG? The Banner talk 18:20, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
 * --You're mis-assesing the scenario of internet-media-penetration.All prominent Odisa news-dailies and regional channels have their full-fledged internet repositories, as is the case in a vast majority of Indian states.As to your second query, yes.Some of their schools are indded mentioned in the most trivial of all manners (as in a list of schools which have been assigned as centers for a part. exam, % of students securing above 90% marks along with several other schools et cetera).But, there's nothing merge-able. ~ Winged Blades Godric 06:59, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - If this were an English school, it would be an easy delete. But, any Hindi speakers that can go to the Indian Wikipedia and see if the school is there, with better sourcing?
