In my opinion this article is one big advertisement, written by the school itself in order to get more students. Especially the lead is quite promotional telling you what is possible and can be reached. The Banner talk 19:47, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I can't quite work out whether this is part of Cologne University or an independent institution. If the latter, then as a degree-awarding institution it should be kept. If the former then there is more of a case for deletion as being only a department of a larger institution. Can anyone clarify? However, as ever, being badly written is not a good reason for deletion. It's a reason for cleanup. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:18, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It is not about being written poorly, it is about being an advertisement and the recommended use of some WP:TNT. The Banner talk 11:00, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - No need. If the subject is notable then just cut out the advertising and leave what's left. Destruction is unnecessary. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - Then you are left with the title, the location, the infobox and a frustrated spammer who will start edit warring over it... The Banner talk 14:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      - Not really a problem. If the spammer gets going then we can protect. After all, nobody deletes the article on Hitler because of the endless vandalism. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:17, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        But at the same time nobody is keeping that articles because H. is a mass murderer, while every school is kept because it is a school. And there is no policy for that... The Banner talk 16:28, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
