Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Society Public School, Lahore


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to List of educational institutions in Lahore. Content can be merged from history. The "keep" opinions are mostly about deletion process and other issues, but do not address the core problem here: does this topic have enough sources to support a standalone article? Nobody seems to be able to actually produce such sources.  Sandstein  06:39, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge: There is a need for a List of schools in Lahore where these fledgling articles can be incubated. At the moment this remains a draft, but contains useful information and has potential. I don't accept that there is not significant coverage when the judgement is made by someone who cant read Urdu. The quality of article and lack of referencing is dismal but retrievable.

 * Keep: (or at least merge or as a minimum redirect with history): In the space of a couple of weeks the nom. will hav decimated Wikipedia's entries of schooling in Pakistan from some of set of mostly very poor articles to near nothing rather that organising a controlled transition at WikiProject level so those now falling foul of WP:WPSCH as a result of RFC in 2017 RFC in 2017 could be transitioned in the spirit of WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES.Bigdelboy (talk) 22:32, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep: I have looked at the nomination again. It says Fails WP:GNG, WP:NORG, WP:SIGCOV- which is a merely a WP:POV as no evidence is given of how it fails. How does it fail WP:GNG? How much effort was made to research this opinion? Was any attempt made to discover the school reference code, and use that to enter the Ministry of Education listings- either on- line or by visiting the government offices and view their archives. A respectable journalist would do so. Has any attempt been made to view the Urdu media, where press reports would be found.
 * With WP:SIGCOV- a school that is functioning well does not generate media attention; it has taken a years of serious misdemeanours for certain Catholic schools to gain SIGCOV.
 * It takes about 45 seconds to boilerplate a nomination, a couple of hours to disprove a negative. This process needs to be reviewed. ClemRutter (talk) 12:16, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
