Doesn't meets the WP:N criteria, the references used are also unreliable or are by the university themselves (for example their website). Ratnahastin (talk) 13:15, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

- Keep. University established under state legislation. We have usually kept these. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:15, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Keep. It appears to be a proper university, but it needs a serious cleanup to remove a load of puffery. --Bduke (talk) 01:40, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
- I have made a start on a cleanup, but it needs work from someone nearer to it who has access to sources. --Bduke (talk) 02:12, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
- significant copyvio, including from here so will need massive cleanup and probably rev del if kept. I don't want to gut it which would affect assessment while at AfD Star Mississippi 01:34, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing this out, apparently most of the article's content is copied verbatim from their own websites. Ratnahastin (talk) 06:32, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- It may be open source and suitably licenced for sharing. I know a lot of them do that but worth checking. scope_creepTalk 10:38, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- I don't see any language releasing the content on their pages. Since it appears likely to be kept and this won't impact assessment here, I'm going to stub it back on those grounds. Noting here for transparency. Star Mississippi 13:24, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- Note, the ancient rev dels were not me, those had been done. I just handled what had been added this month. There seems to be some feuding in the history that I can't make heads or tails of. Star Mississippi 13:31, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

- Keep Its is a real university with real degrees awarded and real people studying there. Passses WP:GNG. The article needs work and copyedit but not Afd. scope_creepTalk 10:38, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- Keep It's a real university. I can't see why it wouldn't pass WP:GNG or WP:N. It's a very short article now that the copyvio is gone, but it's not a bad article. Dusti*Let's talk!* 20:43, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
