Discrimination in education

article is hopelessly WP:POV at this point as it is a product of WP:ADVOCACY related to SEDAI - an organization/movement that fights discrimination against Iranian students. WP:TNT for now. Jytdog (talk) 01:31, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - this is a notable topic. I don't see how it is about Iran. [1] There's a significant number of scholarly articles about the topic. —Мандичка^YO 😜 17:14, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- @Wikimandia:. If you consider the contribution history, you will see that the initial edits were by PenLover (talk · contribs) and the other editors in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/PenLover. These edits had an undue focus on the treatment of iranean students in a few western countries, and had it's offspring in the campaign SEDAI, and as a forking of the article Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Discrimination in education in Norway. The following edits were contra-edits by their opponents, the two accounts in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Jonh-Los. These edits were intented to set the iranean government in a bad light. In view of this POV approaches in the article history, it would be better to start all over again. Bw --Orland (talk) 11:16, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article looks pretty good to me in its current state. Initial edits are irrelevant. @Alec Station: did some work on it and added Australia. It's more of a stub class article and needs more content, but there's no reason to delete it. —Мандичка^YO 😜 20:11, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Highly problematic article. Being used to push a POV, it's basically a WP:Essay. There's also the issue of links to many non-existent articles. The article would have to be rewritten from scratch. Nwlaw63 (talk) 13:04, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I started the section for Australia and made some edits. I do not think it is an essay but an article about a VERY important subject. It needs to be expanded not deletedAlec Station (talk) 15:17, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Indiscriminate collection of information. Education is a very broad topic, discrimination is too, and the two have so many ways to intersect that this article can't be anything but a more or less random selection of individual problems, cases and controversies. This is better covered in the articles about each country's educational system, or for any international topics in Education. Sandstein 10:49, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but Split or Rename - As noted above, this article's current scope is too broad, but the subject of discrimination in education is notable in its own right and shouldn't only be covered in national-level education system articles. It seems like there are three primary types of discrimination covered: Race, sex, and disability. Sex differences in education covers one, but the other two are folded into much broader topic articles (at least as far as I've seen). That there are so many sources about each of them in particular (not just racial/disability discrimination, but discrimination in education), suggests to me it would be best to cover them in their own articles. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 14:48, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
