A Google search returns no sources that seem to be third-party. Therefore, I'm proposing either the deletion of this page, or a merge back into the article of its parent (University of Auckland). Jasper Deng (talk) 22:16, 28 September 2011 (UTC)In accordance with the above rationale I propose that these following two pages be deleted or merged too as search engines for both also don't have third-party sources:[reply]

Delete or merge back as per nom. Non-notable and possible COI. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 00:21, 29 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all as spam for a chain of language cram schools operating on college campuses. Does not qualify as a mainstream government high school or accredited independent high school teaching core subjects to Grade 12 or A-level.. Non notable per WP:ORG.

The following are also quite similar, so I'm also proposing their deletion or merging here:

Delete fails WP:GNG. Stuartyeates (talk) 07:16, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep for all or merge all to parent article for now. While I couldn't find a lot in Google, I did find where at least one school (ACG Senior College) does prepare students for A-level exams. All of the schools go through level 13, which I assume is the equivalent to a United States 12th-grade diploma. While these schools are small and don't offer a lot in the way of sports or other news-making extracurricular activities that doesn't mean there isn't local, independent media coverage. For this reason I'd recommend merging rather than deleting so the article can be resurrected when easy-to-find (i.e. online) references become available. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 22:04, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per Davidwr and protect all redirects to prevent overspamming. coccyx bloccyx_(toccyx) 09:24, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as copy-and-paste spamming. Frietjes (talk) 20:19, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete without merging or redirection. A careful reading of the article will reveal that it is not part of Auckland University, but merely "endorsed" by them; nor are they actually part of or affiliated with the Uni's own English Language Institute. Searching the University website finds them given a paragraph under the heading "Other English language courses in Auckland" [1] Not just spam, but spam intended to mislead without actually lying.

Delete per DGG excellent analysis. Secret ^account 20:55, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
