Jamia Binoria[edit]

Article doesn't seem notable. Its been like this since November 2005. Delete, but allow for recreation if sources are obtained. My concern is the long history of fraudulent institutions claiming to be from Pakistan.[1] Arbustoo 20:44, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep If the issue is that it might be fraudulent, some quick googling will tell you that it's not. In addition to the homepage (which is linked in the article) i found two bbc stories that discuss it, one of them quite thoroughly. There were a number of other results, as well. The article isn't very good and there are not nearly enough sources, but I have no doubt of its notability or factuality. Oskar 23:34, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I've fixed the link for the school to www.binoria.org (this site is in English, the previous one was in Urdu). It looks like the school does exist and as Oskar pointed out there are a number of results (including the BBC ones) that assert its notability. Its just a matter of adding it into the article! - Ozzykhan 18:12, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I've re-written the article. It has got some refs and sources now. utcursch | talk 06:06, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
