I approved the Malaysian campus page through AfC but have no issues if someone wants to merge and redirect it here. Legacypac (talk) 21:11, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

I agree with Legacypac's efforts to create a separate page and believe that the XMU Malaysia page should not be merged with Xiamen University. While the two institutions have similar names and XMU Malaysia is technically a branch campus of Xiamen University, they are for the most part separate schools. XMU Malaysia has its own admissions office, academic departments, etc. Furthermore, we can observe the example of Duke University's China "campus" (as it has been referred to in official Duke University press releases), Duke Kunshan University, which indisputably has its own page despite extensive connections to Duke. In conclusion, such campuses are essentially their own institutions with their own identities, not simply extensions of the founding institutions. ~ChiyuZongzi (talk) 05:37, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

This is an interesting idea. I agree with ChiyuZhongzi, however, that the schools are sufficiently distinct to warrant individual pages. An example to consider might be the University of California system, which has a single Chancellor, but distinct campuses such as UC Berkeley and UCLA that each have their own Wikipedia pages.China is wonderful (talk) 16:47, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

I support the merge, but cannot do it myself due to me not being confirmed. Woshiyiweizhongguoren (talk) 20:40, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

Oppose merge. If even campus of US institutions have their own page (like University of California and University of California, San Diego), then certainly overseas affiliates of important Chinese institutions should have their own separate page. There lots of other examples too, like Teikyo University of Japan in Durham and Texila American University Zambia. Klbrain (talk) 12:43, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

Oppose merge International schools of the same name have their own pages, see Dulwich College International School for an example. robertsky (talk) 01:37, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
