 * Keep as a secondary school per longstanding precedent and consensus. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:21, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as the consensus to keep is not as strong as suggested above. And clearly controversial. Beside that, the sources are very weak so there is doubt about the notability. The Banner talk 15:36, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as a secondary school per longstanding precedent and consensus as documented at WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES and evidenced by thousands of AfD closures Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:49, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
 * WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is saying "Most elementary (primary) and middle schools that don't source a clear claim to notability usually get merged or redirected in AfD." This article does not have any source, supporting claim for notability. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 13:13, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Neither is it an elementary or middle school! -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:32, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, by it's own definition it's a "kindergarten to higher secondary". Arthistorian1977 (talk) 15:42, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Nor has it sources to claim for notability. And it has an ugly smell of advertising. The Banner talk 15:59, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
 * We all know your opinions on consensus! It only counts if you agree with it. Advertising? Drivel. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:35, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * It is a age old trick to attack the messenger personally when you do not have any valid arguments about the message. The Banner talk 17:53, 18 July 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * , your comments are purely disruptive. You are fully aware, and have been for many years (see your 100s of failed mass AfD for schools), of the special exceptions for high schools. If you continue to deliberately disrupt AfD with inappropriate you will find yourself back at ANI. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:05, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
 * And you are fully aware of the opposition against that by others, not only me. And I do not like your threatening behaviour to bully me away. The Banner talk 10:08, 13 July 2016 (UTC)


 * The problem which I have with this specific article is that I don't see any source that supports for the claim being a proper high school. As I mentioned article itself states that the establishment is "kindergarten to higher secondary". Probably I don't understand something, but I think that the school can be either kindergarten or high school. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 10:19, 13 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep per SCHOOLOUTCOME. Also, move it to Sindhi Vidyalaya Matriculation and Higher Secondary School after closure. Also, not sure why any institute can not be both kindergarten and high school. §§<i style="color:#E0115F;">Dharmadhyaksha</i>§§ {Talk / Edits} 10:02, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * So, you want to keep the school because earlier schools were kept, which were kept because other schools were kept, which were kept because other schools were kept etc.
 * School outcomes is a summery, not an argument. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 10:21, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes! WP:CONSENSUS. §§<i style="color:#E0115F;">Dharmadhyaksha</i>§§ {Talk / Edits} 10:56, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Indeed, there is consensus that you in fact gave no arguments for a keep. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner  <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 11:14, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * So be it. §§<i style="color:#E0115F;">Dharmadhyaksha</i>§§ {Talk / Edits} 11:19, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * It is a summary of consensus! -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:35, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * You know better. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 12:46, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Do I indeed?! You do say the most amusing things. You're the only one here who doesn't think there's a consensus. You've been trying to tell us that for ages. It's no more true now than it was last time you said it. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:59, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is indeed amusing to see that your "consensus" is so established that there are many, many prior discussions over and that Kudpung has to revert to threatening behaviour to silence me and others. And just the hundreds of AfD's about school should be an indication that the so called "consensus" is at least shaky. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 13:53, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Hundreds of AfDs are just because of people's IDLI attitude. How many of those were started by you? And how many of those actually ended in deletion? §§<i style="color:#E0115F;">Dharmadhyaksha</i>§§ {Talk / Edits} 14:28, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Well said. The answer is almost none. Not that TB would accept that - his opinion is the only one that matters and clearly he's right and the rest of us are wrong. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:48, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Nice try to attack the messenger and bury the message. <span style="font-family:'Old English Text MT',serif;color:green">The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 17:52, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
 * The "message" would presumably be that since you don't agree with the consensus it clearly isn't a consensus? Consensus does not require 100% agreement. If it did then we would never, ever have any consensus on Wikipedia. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:54, 20 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep with reliable sources. I bet this is regional unbalanced point of view if eventually decided not to keep. Xxjkingdom (talk) 04:05, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as there's still questionability including the fact this is only a private school, thus it's not a local government school. SwisterTwister   talk  05:15, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Privately funded or government funded does not matter as long as it is affiliated with a state-run education board. The board decides the curriculum and the 10th and 12th exams are also taken by the board. §§<i style="color:#E0115F;">Dharmadhyaksha</i>§§ {Talk / Edits} 05:43, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Exactly. Being a private school is utterly irrelevant to notability. I have no idea why some editors seem to think that state schools are inherently more notable than private schools. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:52, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
