Rome Business School

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not seem to meet notability guidelines; only sources given are website listings with no independent reliable sources indicating something notable about this school. Page does little more than list its offerings. 331dot (talk) 14:07, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Further, page was created by someone with the name "RBS business" indicating an affiliation with the school. 331dot (talk) 14:09, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete I tried hard to verify that this is an accredited school, but not only did the web page on accreditation only link to the image files of the organizations it lists, I couldn't find any evidence that those organizations provided accreditation. Accreditation for non-state run training schools does not seem to be clear in Italy, but the article should at least link to a verification of the accreditation. The article also lists an exchange program with a non-existent Manhattan school. LaMona (talk) 05:53, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete: Italian version was also deleted.--Milowent • hasspoken  02:05, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete for now at least as I see no obvious better improvement. Pinging (maybe you can browse through those new AfDs I listed?) and I'm not sure if,  and  also have comments.  SwisterTwister   talk  06:48, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. It offers degrees. I don't think very highly of its accreditation, I don't think highly of the universities it says it is affliated with. But it does offer degrees, and that's the standard. I removed a little promotionalism.  DGG ( talk ) 09:10, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Disagree that offering degrees merits a page, at least without independent RS(other than a mere listing); hundreds of websites will give you a degree in whatever you want; doesn't make them notable. 331dot (talk) 11:13, 23 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete. I think the appropriate guideline is not "do we believe its claims of accreditation" but instead "does it pass WP:ORG". And I don't think it does. It has a fair number of Google hits but I don't see a lot that I would characterize as reliable independent sources that give in-depth information about this school. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:36, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
