The result was   delete. We enerally do not keep articles like this. I really do not see the point of a redirect as a useful search term--surely anyone would type UNSW or the full university name.  DGG ( talk ) 04:46, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

UNSW Accommodation

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Non-notable collection of hostels. PROD concern was ''Non-notable linkfarm of hostel accommodation. No independent refs. Removed by article creator with the comment (Re: Proposed deletion: UNSW is a major university in Australia, and many potential students refer to Wikipedia for information, including accommodation. This is a valuable resource for them.)'' Looking for sources finds self-published sources, particularly promotional self published sources. Beyond the complete lack of independent sources, I see the main problem as WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Stuartyeates (talk) 00:49, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. This article is basically just a reiteration of a limited amount of information from the university's own housing web site. No independent sources have been provided. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:22, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. List of non-notable hostels, fails WP:ORG. Adequately covered at UNSW. WWGB (talk) 00:53, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, but merge anything useful (and non-redundant) to UNSW. - Jorgath (talk) (contribs) 18:40, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Unlike the similar AfD above, this one does seem to be largely redundant due to the individual colleges having their own pages. Info about the less-notable "village type" accommodation can be merged to the UNSW article per Jogarth.--Yeti Hunter (talk) 13:11, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to UNSW. Plausible search term, but not independently notable. Jenks24 (talk) 16:32, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
