- Delete Neither source lends to notability and the article itself is unintelligible to the point that it barely gets over the WP:A1 criteria of speedy deletion. Best, GPL93 (talk) 23:43, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Tagged it for CSD under WP:G12. the text is copy-pasted directly the Assam Education Service charter. Best, GPL93 (talk) 23:53, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. The topic is notable, as state agencies almost always are. The quality and copyvio are another matter. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:30, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- While most state-level departments (in this case the Assam Department of Elementary Education) are almost always notable, their services, agencies and sub-departments (which the Assam Education Service is) are usually not. For instance, the Pennsylvania Department of Education does meet notability standards, but its sub-departments and agencies do not. Best, GPL93 (talk) 15:54, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- Not the same thing at all. This is not a sub-department, but a service. Your comment is like saying the British Army is notable, but the Royal Army Medical Corps is not! -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:27, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Except The British Army is a National organization and military units as a whole follow a different set of notability requirements per WP:MILUNIT. Either way I can barely find any primary sources on the Assam Education Service, let alone reliable sources so it's a pretty clear WP:NORG fail. GPL93 (talk) 11:53, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
