Draft:Nexford University

  • Comment: I believe it passes WP:UNIN. Wikipedia policy says that even if the school didn't received the coverage its fine as long as its legit. I'm not seeing anything that conflicts the policy and even if there's no reference cited it passes WP:GNG for Universities. Kitsent (talk) 16:43, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Wikipedia articles require independent secondary sources with in depth coverage of the subjects. These are not evident here. Stuartyeates (talk) 08:08, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: Removed all questionable sources and text and used a fresh text with better sources.Kitsent (talk) 11:16, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: Most sources are WP:ROUTINE announcements of funding and product launches, only The Guardian Nigeria source provides SIGCOV. Devonian Wombat (talk) 14:12, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
