Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of educational institutions in Salem, India
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_educational_institutions_in_Salem,_India&oldid=481453388 As of now, it is quite different from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_educational_institutions_in_Salem,_India&oldid=480448035 when it was nominated. It no longer seems a linkfarm and doesn't seem to be covered in  anymore. Per , ''A company or organization may be included in a list of companies or organizations whether or not it meets the Wikipedia notability requirement, unless a given list specifically requires this.'' I do not think a list of this form requires fulfilling notability. (In case others do, I'd like to point out that #Notability reads ''In general, all colleges and universities are notable and should be included on Wikipedia.'') I do note that per , '' If the company or organization does not have an existing article in Wikipedia, a citation to an independent, reliable source should be provided to establish its membership in the list's group.'' and per  ''Any material that requires a citation but does not have one may be removed.'', however the list now contains some references and hence the entire article cannot be covered by this. Hence the grounds on which the article was nominated do not seem to stand true anymore. The article may be shortened considerably for lack of sources, in the extreme case it may be merged with Salem, Tamil Nadu; however the entire article cannot be considered as deletable
