Fails WP:ORG per WP:NSCHOOL and WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. I had PRODed after someone used this as "Other stuff exists" argument from AfC/Draft submission. PROD removed without reason or improvement. References just show existence not notability KylieTastic (talk) 14:01, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete A cursory search in English found many attestations of this School's existence, but no noteable reference (in a News story, for instance). May there are Hindi language sources about this school, but if this is the case, it should be covered on Hindi Wikipedia. Av = λv (talk) 15:09, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unable to find RSs that provide more than passing mentions, does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:ORG. Justi yaya 16:29, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete All I could find was some extremely trivial information about how students of the school rank on national exams or something. The article wouldn't load, but I doubt it's enough for notability, especially on it's own, and from what I call tell there isn't anything else out there that would help make this notable. It's also telling that there isn't even a Hindu language article about it. --Adamant1 (talk) 06:55, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Adamant1, why would there be an article of this school in hindi language? Hindi is not taught here at all. English and Bengali are the medium of instruction, with the former being the first language.--Michri michri (talk) 09:06, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, but it doesn't really matter what language the school teaches in does it? Like just because there's an English speaking school in Hong Kong doesn't mean there won't be a Cantonese language article for it since that's the main language spoken there. So I don't really get what your point is. In the meantime the official language of India is Hindu. So more then likely that's the language the article would be in. Especially since there's only like 100,000 articles in Bengali currently. It's a moot point anyway though since there is no non-English language article, Bengali, Hindu, or otherwise. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:20, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Adamant1 There is no specific official language of India. Hindi may be the most-spoken language in our country, but that does not mean that it is our official language. Assamese, Bengali, Bodo ,Dogri, English, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Kashmiri, Konkani, Maithili, Malayalam, Marathi, Meitei, Nepali, Odia, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Santali, Sindhi, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu- all these 23 languages are our official languages. Anyway, excluding all these facts, I agree in deleting this stub article.Michri michri (talk) 11:03, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not to bludgeon the discussion, but Languages of India says "Article 343 of the Indian Constitution stated that the official language of the Union is Hindi in Devanagari script, with official use of English to continue for 15 years from 1947. Later, a constitutional amendment, The Official Languages Act, 1963, allowed for the continuation of English alongside Hindi in the Indian government indefinitely until legislation decides to change it." Like I said though, it's a moot point anyway since there is no article for this in any language besides English anyway. Hindu or otherwise. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:29, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
