Keep and require further improvement

 * Keep and require further improvement

Reference: Request of Prof. Kudpung to delete the article Tsinghua-MIT Global MBA:

Dear Prof. Kudpung, I agree the article was not initially written in an objective and neutral fashion, i.e., having some peacock terms and POV. After all, the article was created a week ago and editors are inexperienced. Hence may I suggest to keep the article while we continue improving it in the next several days? We already deleted the terms that we believe you found subjective, and we will continue to refine the article further in the coming days. If you think that the page contains wrong or non-notable information, please help us by identifying the passage or language of concern, and we will attempt to revise in a satisfactory manner.

Regarding notability of educational program, our conclusion seems to vary from yours, and we hope that you will give additional consideration in your analysis. Whether or not a subject is notable does not, from our vantage point, depend exclusively on its form, but largely upon public awareness of it. In fact, I searched Wikipedia and found different articles for other programs that seem to bear a similar level of uniqueness. For the Tsinghua-MIT Global MBA, the program itself represents a collaboration between two well established universities in China and the U.S. - not simply a program entirely devised by a single Eastern or Western institution. Please also note that we cited contents from reputable external sources including People Daily, Bloomberg, Financial Times, etc. I hope these sources can serve as good indicators for notability, although a variety of additional sources do exist in non-English publications.

In reply to "meatpuppets with a COI". We disclosed previously on your talk page that we are alumni of the program. I was not aware of Wikipedia's COI policy before so here is a full disclosure: We are students or graduates of the program. We do not receive compensation or have been instructed by Tsinghua School of Economics and Management for creating and editing the article. The article is created voluntarily in the good faith to faciliate giving information. Furthermore, I would like to emphasize that we are only the collector of the information, not the publisher. Everything we mention is originally not written by ourselves and cited from mainstream media and MBA specific sources. Friesehamburg (talk) 09:53, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
