Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of universities with soil science curriculum
as a valued information source per ist. It is certainly valuable to me.   and "Jobs would be created" are not viable reasons for deletion.  Beyond that, universities are in the business of promoting themselves, not their "competitors", certainly not a directory of their competitors.  Collegiality has severe limits, meaning this list is not viable outside Wikipedia. As someone else stated in the previous deletion discussion, this list is a particularly "valuable information source" to those previously unaware that such a profession even exists and newly interested in investigating it as a career opportunity - a classic event in my experience.  As a member of https://www.soils.org/about-society/committees/S573/members/ SSSA S-573 Accreditation of Soil Science Programs, I view this list is an utterly unique and precious information source, valuable in no small part due to the collaborative and collective Wikipedia community, without whom this list would become stale. The criteria at  does not compel deleting this list
