• Keep Notability is not a concern for universities. Fg2 01:18, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per above, universities are notable, but It really needs to be expanded.--JForget 01:44, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Agreed! It's not yet a stub. Fg2 02:04, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

:Deletion is based on whether the article in concern meets notability criteria or not. If the topic in concern clearly meets notability criteria, then the article should be improved, not deleted. KTC 02:17, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

And if you're so concerned that it be at least a stub, it is now. KTC 02:35, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Apology, I thought that was an agree on delete. KTC 03:12, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

• Strong keep - I think the fact that university meets notability is pretty much already clearly established. But for those wanting to cite policy, from Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies)#Non-commercial_organizations : "Organizations are usually notable if the scope of activities are national or international in scale and information can be verified by sources that are reliable and independent of the organization." A nationally recognized and accredited university would be considered as having its scope of activities that are national (or international) in scale, and hence notable for inclusion.

  • Thanks for bringing this up to a stub. Fg2 04:44, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

• Keep Would agree that all proper universities are notable as said above. Davewild 07:02, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Keep per KTC. Not only are all universities considered notable, unless shown otherwise, this one is located in one of the oldest cities in the world, and this is interesting and encyclopedic in itself. Bearian 18:24, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep, it is a university. This should have already been closed imo. It is a 32 years old university with more than 30 thousand students (according to the Uni website), and it has among other things 11 eleven research centers. Deniz^T_C 06:42, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
