Survey on NIT

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The current state of the article is nothing but original research -- not only does it not provide any criteria by which the judgments are made, but it even states that survey information from respected institutions such as the Times of India is ignored. However, importing ranking lists from other sites may run into copyright problems. I'm not sure how one can maintain such an article without violations of guidelines.

Strong delete. Not salvageable at all. This looks like someone trying to use Wikipedia to legitimize his/her own opinions on these Indian universities. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 23:15, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The article is a classic case of WP:OR. Salih (talk) 03:47, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No it is an original ranking — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.209.209.28 (talk • contribs)

That is precisely the problem. Wikipedia is not a publisher of original writings, it is a summary of what reliable sources have to say on subjects. There are no reliable sources for the information behind this survey. -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 13:58, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – No sources for anything. It's all original research. –TC N7 JM 02:25, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
