The result was delete. WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES has been stricken as WP:ANA per Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#RfC on secondary school notability. As the RfC was closed while this discussion was in progress, I believe a WP:SOFTDELETE close is proper in this case. Kurykh ( talk) 04:22, 28 February 2017 (UTC) reply

Originally proposed this article for PROD when first created but was contested with no reason provided. No evidence of notability. Fails WP:NSCHOOL and WP:GNG. Class455 ( talk| stand clear of the doors!) 01:02, 5 February 2017 (UTC) reply

• Keep. Per SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Degree granting institution set up by a parliamentary act ^[1] and functioning currently. ^[2] Lourdes 06:15, 12 February 2017 (UTC) reply

Those are mainly notices just saying that the school is functioning which doesn't make it pass NSCHOOL, there isnt very much coverage which indicates the subject is notable. Class455 ( talk| stand clear of the doors!) 12:04, 13 February 2017 (UTC) reply

WP:NSCHOOL: "(But see also WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, especially for universities.)"

WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES: "Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions and high schools are usually kept except when zero independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists."... Lourdes 16:21, 13 February 2017 (UTC) reply

• Keep - per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. As cited by Lourdes, "Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions and high schools are usually kept except when zero independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists." —  Yash  ^{talk  stalk} 08:22, 14 February 2017 (UTC) reply
• What kind of sources would you suggest using to build this article? It's a new university so surely the sources should not be far off, no? " WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES" is currently the subject of an RfC so I don't find it particularly convincing on its own here. czar 02:21, 20 February 2017 (UTC) reply
• Delete. The only arguments I see here are appeals to WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. I always find these sorts of arguments circular; we should keep X because we always have usually kept X in the past. @ Czar:, you mention an RfC, but I can't find it. Could you please provide a link to it? Based on my own searches, I'm not seeing the kind of sources we need to do anything other than verify that a bill was passed. There is a website for a school called BENAZIR BHUTTO SHAHEED UNIVERSITY LYARI, which has very little real information. So little, in fact, that I'm not even sure it's for the same school as the subject of this article. So, I'm not even sure this passes WP:V. If this school really does exist, there should be some third-party sources beyond routine reports of a bill being passed to create it. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:20, 20 February 2017 (UTC) reply
