No references in the article; Google search provides very few returns, with no apparent significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject. Very little article content, what little was there originally was advertisement material lifted directly from the website of the article's subject. Dreadstar † 06:57, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Reluctant delete. Something tells me there could be more to this article. An education institution purportedly established in over 100 locations for over 20 years should be notable. Unfortunately, without anything else to go on within the piece itself, the ghits are thin on the ground - mainly amounting to the STI website itself and references on a government news feed - and there's nothing else to hang the article on.Dick G 07:54, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep As Dick G writes, education in 100 locations and over 20 years seems notable. Anarchia 11:40, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment, I guess..but what reliable sources back up that claim? That's the biggest problem, no sources besides the org's own site. They could say they have a billion locations and a thousand year-history..but what WP:V sources exist that back this up? ;) Dreadstar † 23:29, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep They seem to be a chain of vocational training institutes, calling themselves colleges. I suspect most of the locations are very small, but I think they're notable. Cf [1] where they have two honorable mentions. I think some more can be filtered out from [2] with enough patience. Is there a Wikproject to notify? DGG (talk) 07:05, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment, I also found this entry: STI College Angeles'. Dreadstar † 07:46, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I've had to revert to a very early revision of the article due to copyright issues. The current revision should be clean. --- RockMFR 02:30, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Not everything in the last version of the article could be considered as copyright infringement. Removed all copyrighted content. Removed UNECESSARY external links. Please do not remove the revised and grammar-corrected version to the earlier revisions.
- Keep. Should be rewritten though. This is a major line of schools all over the country along the lines of AMA Computer University. I'm not sure the article name is entirely appropriate though. Shrumster 10:36, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep but Rename. Notable in the Philippines. Try googling STI college instead of STI colleges.--Lenticel (talk) 11:23, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
