No WP:SIGCOV sources were found, so the subject fails to meet GNG, and thus also fails WP:NSCHOOL. GrabUp - Talk 14:03, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Recently deleted via G12 while it was in AfD; a redirect was created by Pharoh, but Goswami21 recreated the article. GrabUp - Talk 14:08, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: 8 citations including 2 given by you, removed the history section which lead to speedy deletion, added college website link, digital library link, modified the article, what else do I need to do to remove this deletion tag... Goswami21 (talk) 14:49, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Goswami21: The subject fails to meet WP:NSCHOOL and is not notable enough to have a standalone article. These sources do not provide in-depth coverage of the subject at all. Additionally, the college website and government sites are WP:PRIMARY sources, which do not contribute to notability. You cannot remove the AfD tag; it will be removed by the closer after a consensus is established. GrabUp - Talk 16:22, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
: 8 citations which I have provided, are well enough to support the article as well as the content of the article... and Btw the article "B. Borooah College" has no objections despite of having almost 90% of the citations are from different sections of their college websites and the article "Arya Vidyapeeth College" also doesnt have any objection... almost all the citations are either from college website or from other government sites like ugc, gauhati university, etc. so why only this article... if there should be a tag... it should be for all the colleges... I can also give citations from the different sections of my college website but as you have said it is unreliable source... I havent... so if it doesnt contribute to notability... so how their college websites contents does contribute to notability and not mine... Goswami21 (talk) 16:39, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Goswami21: Please don’t give WP:WHATABOUT arguments here. If you think any other article fails our notability guidelines, you can nominate it for AfD. I agree that the majority of Indian college and school articles do not meet notability guidelines, but they were not deleted because no one nominated them. You said I can also give citations from the different sections of my college website can you please disclose your connection to the subject? Why did you say my college?

: Different sections of colleges websites has been used as citations by almost all the college articles under Gauhati University... But you said these do not contribute to notability, and btw I Graduated in Chemistry Honours in July 2024 from this college, thats why I referred as my college. Goswami21 (talk) 21:27, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Read WP:PRIMARY. The source is connected to the subject as in this case its own website, which is why it do not contribute towards notability. GrabUp - Talk 03:08, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
: 8 citations I provided well enough defines and support the content I added... it should stay on the website... among the 8 citations 2 were given by you... Goswami21 (talk) 16:20, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Goswami21: What do you mean by 2 were given by you? When and which two sources did I give? GrabUp - Talk 16:24, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
See the discussion page of 1st nomination... you have given 4 citations... I added 2 from these Goswami21 (talk) 16:31, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of colleges affiliated to the Gauhati University per WP:ATD. Fails WP:SIGCOV/WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. None of the sources contain independent significant coverage of the school.4meter4 (talk) 01:20, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
: 9 sources including 4 of them have independent coverage about the college and rest of the citations have college mentions and the respective news about the college Goswami21 (talk) 13:14, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Goswami21 Do you realise that the 5 keep !votes in this AfD are coming from ONLY YOU? Kindly strike all except one. Thanks! Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:19, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of colleges affiliated to the Gauhati University: This fails WP:NSCHOOL or WP:GNG. A redirect to this target makes sense. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 08:39, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
