International Metaphysical University[edit]

I declined A7 as this appears to be an unaccredited educational establishment. Whether or not accreditation is essential to being a 100% educational establishment for the purposes of A7, I do not know. I hope that a decision can be reached about the notability of this establishment (or website, as it is purely online...) here. Peridon (talk) 22:43, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In the first 15 pages of ghits, I could see nothing reliable and independent. Peridon (talk) 22:48, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I agree that this "university" does not have sufficient notability to meet WP:ORG or WP:GNG. I only argued against speedy deletion because dem's da rulz. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 11:52, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article about this "Online University" has only WP:USERGENERATED sources. Google shows others, but only non-reliables, like social media or webforums. Interestingly, there are two forums that are discussing how serious this university is and one of them is 'metaphysics' friendly.--Ben Ben (talk) 19:30, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

PS: Discussion between Dan and me, why I shouldn't have tagged this with A7, is on my talk page.--Ben Ben (talk) 19:30, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've posted at Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion to see if anyone has an answer to this. Peridon (talk) 11:04, 22 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think there's agreement there that anything that might be a genuine education institution should go to afd, instead of speedy, because of the difficulty in deciding just what it is. DGG ( talk ) 23:06, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not enough coverage to be a notable institution. 1292simon (talk) 13:41, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
