The George Green Institute for Electromagnetics Research

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Extremely & inappropriately detailed article about one particular research group within a single department of a university. By our usual practices, not even the department would be separately notable, much less the individual research groups in it.

Those faculty who are notable should have articles. Otherwise, this belongs only on their web site &#39;DGG (at NYPL)&#39; (talk) 20:12, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Redirect to George Green. The lead paragraph looks like a copyvio, or at least close paraphrasing, of the GGIEMR About page. I was unable to find in-depth, independent reliable sources discussing the institute itself. There are notable members of the Institute and George Green himself is notable, but the Institute appears not to be so. Failing notability, per WP:GNG, the Institute is verifiable and a plausible search term, so a redirect to the section George Green, where the Institute is mentioned, is reasonable. --Mark viking (talk) 21:58, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect I agree with the nom, but I see no harm in leaving the redirect. SmartSE (talk) 21:52, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
