the notability of this organization is questionable, if not nonexistent. this directory of locations definetly doesn't need its own article. see also the organizations other two articles which have been nominated for deletion as well. WookieInHeat (talk) 04:05, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: As I pointed out at the deletion discussion you started for the main Beaconhouse School System article, this organization's notability is easy to verify. And I strongly recommend that the main Beaconhouse School System article be kept. But I'm not sure the Pakistan branch needs its own article here. It could be useful as a separate article, but at present it's barren. The list of addresses is pointless and should be removed, whether the article stays or goes. I'd be happy to try to add some third-party sources if it looks like this article is going to be kept. AtticusX (talk) 11:06, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment i still maintain my position of delete on this page as per WP:NOTDIR. WookieInHeat (talk) 19:42, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect: I have copied the small amount of salvageable material from this article to Beaconhouse School System's "Pakistan" section, which is probably where it came from in the first place, in preparation for the possible disappearance of this article. The material does work better as part of the main article than in its own article... there's just not enough notable material at present for a whole article about the Pakistan branch of BSS, once you remove all the directory crap. This article space probably should redirect to Beaconhouse School System, especially as BSS seems to have its largest presence in Pakistan. AtticusX (talk) 21:04, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect: I realize now that wikipedia is not a directory and such content should be avoided. There is no use for this article. Only a few campuses should be named in the original article which are notable and cited with reliable sources. Farjad0322^{(talk|sign|contribs)} 10:59, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment:the main Beaconhouse School System article should be kept. however, wikipedia contains many absurd articles, much worse than this one, which is merely an organization's campuses in a country. Organization's notability is NOT an issue, though. I agree with Farjad --Umar1996 (talk) 11:41, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

• Keep , but remove the directory information of street address and phone numbers--I started doing this. Combination articles are the way we handle primary schools--and I note the many secondary schools listed here will be individually notable, if anyone cares to make the articles.

• Keep nominated this when it seemed to be part of a number of spammed articles. redundant articles have since been deleted and some work has been done on this one since with information from the others merged here. my original reasoning for deletion has been satisfied.
