Non-notable bible school lacking non-trivial support. Per the talk page, "The purpose of this Wikipedia Page is to inform the public about the Christ For The Nations Association of Bible Schools. Currently the organization has 64 Bible Schools around the world and by creating this page and listing the various schools, it will allow the schools to create their own Wikipedia pages by creating links to their own websites." A google search on the name provides little support for the organization. Appears to be more of an advertisement than an encyclopedic article. reddogsix (talk) 18:38, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

• Delete. Promotional article written by an editor with a blatant COI. No apparent coverage in independent sources. – Joe (talk) 23:37, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

• Delete. First off, it's poorly sourced - every citation is to their own website or a privately-published paper source that has no ISBN nor a ISSN. Secondly, it reeks of soapboxing - the part about rejecting government accreditation especially. Finally, its purpose seems to be to use a non-sectatarian private charity as its own sectarian religious website - folks would surely reject their demands to put free adverts on Girl Scout cookie boxes. The same idea applies here. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Bearian (talk) 16:51, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
• Delete - Fails notability test. I couldn't find anything about it online apart from its own site, nor about the schools listed in the "Listing of schools" section. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:33, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
• Potential Keep -- An article on an association of 64 Bible Schools, some of which are locally accredited, stokes me as likely to be notable. The fact that the mother school has not got such accreditation in US does not alter that. However this is a bad article, and the lack of articles (at least linked ones) on any of the other schools makes me wonder if any are really notable. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:33, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
• Weak delete - I agree with Bearian, noting on the talk page, the main author of the page doesn't convince me otherwise. I also agree that the article potentially could be kept if the issues were dealt with, but I'm not sure they can/will. Smmurphy^(Talk) 14:30, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
