Page on a single undergraduate class, translated from the pt-wiki. There is nothing notable about this class, the page is just an extended description without any coverage from what I can see. This is not what (the english) Wikipedia is for, class information can go on Facebook, LinkedIn or similar. The page should probably have been draftified, but missed the 90 day window. Deletion seems appropriate, as I do not see how this can possibly be edited to pass any of the english WP notability criteria. (Possible COI as well, but that is not the deciding factor.)

Delete as failing to meet WP:GNG. It's possible that a single college or university could be independently notable. But I expect that is quite rare and in any case the claim needs to be supported by reliable, independent sources just like every other article. ElKevbo (talk) 22:33, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, for the reason given. There are, of course, many articles on single colleges and universities, so I think ElKevbo accidentally omitted the word "course" after "single college or university". Athel cb (talk) 06:56, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, that is a typo on my part. Thank you for the polite correction! ElKevbo (talk) 21:32, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I studied in USP and I heard of this "elite" course. Maybe the article as it is currently doesn't adequately capture why this course is special, notable, but ... as far as I know the sources in the current article already attest to some notability. Not sure about how special courses/majors are treated in wikipedia as a whole though 🙏🏽 (hello from Wikiproject Brazil!) User:D Kirlston - talk 19:51, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. It's reasonably well-written, but I just don't understand the notability. Geschichte (talk) 06:31, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't see any evidence that this course is different enough from hundreds of other courses on molecular science in other universities to have any notability outside Brazil. All 15 out of 15 references are to articles in Portuguese. Athel cb (talk) 07:52, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
