Previous AfD was closed as no consensus despite having no keep !votes at all. A non notable former university that was only briefly open and was, importantly, a small private university. Thus the relevant SNG is WP:NORG, and so we need sources that meet WP:ORGDEPTH and also independent as per WP:ORGIND. Such sourcing does not exist. Attempted a redirect as suggested in the last AfD, but that was reverted, so here we are. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 21:22, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

- Redirect. What the guideline actually says: "For-profit educational organizations and institutions", not all private institutions. WP:GNG is enough, but I don't think the coverage in the article now, or that found in the previous AfD, is enough for that. Peter James (talk) 10:55, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks. I remain unopposed to a redirect to
Purges in Turkey following the 2016 Turkish coup attemptList of educational institutions closed in the 2016 Turkish purges where this is mentioned, and where I already merged the information here. Yes, you are right that GNG is enough if the university were a suitable not for profit institution, but as far as I can see, from what little information is out there, it was seized as a business interest of Turkish businessman Akın İpek. The doesn't sound like a not for profit. But, as you say, that is likely moot as GNG is not met either.

- The merge was only of the sources, and no substantive text. I added the sourcing to the page following the last AfD. The discovery of the sourcing is in the AfD page which will be preserved. Attribution to this remains available, and is easily flagged with a dummy edit showing copywithin from the AfD page. And that is despite the fact that the merged material is not creative nor original, and that the licensing issue is a touch more nuanced. So in this case we certainly can delete, but I reiterate I am unopposed to a redirect. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 08:07, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
