The result was KEEP. The argument that it it reads like an ad is understood, but not really that strong - as noted, the preferred solution would be a rewrite rather than delete. And that rewrite has occurred. Thus the first two Delete comments may be be deprecated. Herostratus 12:33, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

- Delete its pure advertisement, likely also fails WP:NOTE Black Harry (T|C) 21:06, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
- Comment, I've tidied it up a little as this is a new contributor Ron48ron (talk · contribs). Please try to determine notability rather than judging based on the limited information available in the article. John Vandenberg 23:27, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

- I don't agree with that request, by the way. There's nothing wrong with deleting an advert article. If some editor wants to write a future article, and because of this AFD vote, he has to do so from scratch, that's OK. There's no onus on us to keep an advert stub around based on hypothetical actions of a future editor. Tempshill 06:26, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
- potential keep--depending on some source being found. the college is notable, most likely, but the information is about the main organization. Not spammy at this point.DGG 01:46, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
- I've stubified it adding two sources to verify its existence. However, I am not sure about notability as I havent been able to find a clear definition of an "intermediate college". However, there are many examples of similar articles, such as St. Mary's Convent Inter College. John Vandenberg 01:20, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
- Intermediate college in North India is where you study XI and XII classes (i.e. two years after passing highschool and before Bachelor's degree). This looks like a school + intermediate college i.e. it offers education from Std. VI to Std. XII[1]. Not sure, but seems at least as notable as most of the schools in Category:Elementary schools in the United States.[2]. 202.54.176.51 09:16, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, W.marsh 16:34, 23 May 2007 (UTC)- I would hope it is much more notable than most of the present elementary schools articles, for they are being rapidly screened for deletion. What it corresponds to is a US Junior College or community college. DGG 03:44, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
