Fails WP:GNG I'd redirect to housing market in Sydney if it existed, although I also fail to see why the housing market in Sydney is especially worthy of an article. There is possible a case for an article on the distortion of local housing markets due to the need for student accommodation. TheLongTone (talk) 13:59, 26 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The topic seems overly specific (Student housing in Sydney or Accommodation for international students in Australia would be better), but a lot has been written on the (often poor and sometimes dangerous) standard of accommodation available to international students in Sydney, projects to build new accommodation and the impact of international students on the Sydney housing market. A simple Google search returns lots of useful results [1]. I'd prefer an upmerge, but I think the article is viable. Nick-D (talk) 01:45, 27 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete I am really in two minds about this one. The subject is certainly notable. There is no shortage of reliable secondary sources on the subject matter. However, the style and english expression are just all wrong, and with possble indications of WP:OR, it points to WP:TNT. Aoziwe (talk) 09:58, 28 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect - reads like a poorly-written student essay. There may be grounds for having such an article (per Aoziwe), but this isn't it. Deb (talk) 09:04, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep The article could be improve instead of deleting.JPL549 (talk) 10:13, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect Agreed with Deb. The article lacks notability at the current moment. Catiline52 (talk) 05:29, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per WP:NOTESSAY the last paragraph is a dead giveaway "In conclusion, renting accommodation in Sydney is still a big challenge for international students". @Deb: @Catiline52: you seem to have forgotten to say where we should redirect it to. I don't see any real reason to redirect if there is not a page that mentions this particular problem. Dom from Paris (talk) 16:55, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Not so much forgotten as "don't know". Education in Sydney? I guess what I'm saying is that there is potential for an article at this title and thus potential for some of the content to be re-used at a later date, if someone comes along who has the ability to write it. Hence redirect is preferable to deletion (but deletion is preferable to retention). Deb (talk) 17:00, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOTESSAY as well as having certain aspects of WP:SYNTH. Ajf773 (talk) 20:13, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
