 * Delete cram spam, article has no value and is purely promotional. --Bob Re-born (talk) 05:39, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep after clean up is the renowned cram-school of India. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ladekar (talk • contribs) 06:02, 24 May 2013 (UTC)  — Ladekar (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Weak delete. There are a few reliable sources given, but I don't think they distinguish this school from all the millions (that's not hyperbole) of such institutes of its kind in India. The coverage certainly isn't significant. MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:45, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Unless you are making the ludicrous claim that there is more than one such crammer per thousand population then that claim most certainly is hyperbole. Please try to keep your statements within the realm of credibility. Phil Bridger (talk) 21:07, 28 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep Indian cramming schools are a major part of the education scene there. (as in a fe wother countries). This particular one is well documented by the Times of India articles. There is a certain degree of suspicion for all  Indian newspapers  that they base their stories on  press releases, but the first cited article very clearly is not a press release. That the leading English-language newspaper in the country published several extensive articles on them is notability. The articles clearly do establish the status.  I wonder if the doubters can find similar coverage for others--in which case we should probably write articles about it.   I'm sure they won;t find it for "millions". &#39;DGG (at NYPL) (talk) 17:59, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Weak keep, and only after cleanup. I think the references in the article show that it just barely passes notability requirements. 069952497aComments and complaintsStuff I've done 00:45, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete, Not a notable institute. It is a coaching center and the page is created for publicity/ marketing purpose. There are lot of coaching institute in almost each and every street. I strongly recommend to delete this page. Jussychoulex (talk) 03:52, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

 * There is not a single reliable reference which shows the notability of the Vibrant Academy. All references just tell about the Kota city, which has become the hub of thousand of coaching centers. Vibrant Academy is one on them. It is a purely a promotional page. There are many coaching institutes like this in almost all the streets of India.Jussychoulex (talk) 13:25, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
 * This is 100% promotional page of a coaching center (its is not a academic institute, which provides degrees). There are many coaching centers in almost all the streets of India, like this. This page was made by a student of this coaching center 'Shivam Setu' see http://in.linkedin.com/in/shivamsetu. Shivam Setu also made his promotional page on Wikipedia, which was SPEEDY DELETE, see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shivam_Setu&action=edit&redlink=1. I am shocked to see that this page is still surviving here on Wikipedia. Jussychoulex (talk) 12:23, 14 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep, is well deserved article. There is coverage in reliable secondary sources, e.g.- The Times of India, The Telegraph (Calcutta), Forbes India etc. Misscric indi (talk) 02:45, 16 June 2013 (UTC) — Misscric indi (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
