The only sources here are Advertorials, and routine announcement. I could not find anything that would establish notability of this university except for a news article that talks about clashes happening in the college and about student protests. If that is the only thing that makes the subject notable then, the article should be framed differeterrrntly and should definitely not be solely about the University in itself. Announcements about events in the university also does not make the subject notable. Flyingphoenixchips (talk) 03:27, 9 April 2025 (UTC)

:I agree. This article doesn't quite reach WP:GNG. Probably should merge this with Galgotias University ZImperator (talk) 15:43, 11 April 2025 (UTC)

::I’m against merging because there is little to nothing to establish notability for both articles. Flyingphoenixchips (talk) 14:40, 17 April 2025 (UTC)

• Redirect to List of colleges affiliated to the Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow. I was tempted to leave for the soft delete, which is also acceptable, but we have a mention on that page, and it is one of the many such affiliated colleges, so the WP:ATD is also acceptable. It is a private college, and the relevant SNG is therefore WP:NORG, not just GNG. What we have on the page is a lot of primary sourcing but also apparently a few articles about the college. The articles, however, contain the full college logo, e.g. [https://tennews.in/galgotias-university-witness-shooting-m-s-dhoni-director-neeraj-pandeys-next-multi-starer-movie/] and this is a certain sign, along with the glowing prose, that we are in WP:NEWSORGINDIA territory, and so these sources are not independent and cannot be used. We certainly don't have sources at WP:ORGDEPTH, and the nom.'s assessment is quite right. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:37, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
