I redirected this to the parent article in November.[1] This was reverted by Think O Lantern almost immediately.[2] We had a discussion over this at our talk pages (User talk:Think O Lantern#Institute of Animal Biotechnology and User talk:Aircorn/Archive 8#Institute of Animal Biotechnology). Lfstevens (talk · contribs) has done a good job copy editing it, but the only source is still a link to the universities webpage. There is nothing remarkable about this institute that I can find[3] and being a Institute of a Faculty of a University in a very small country I doubt it reaches our definition of notability. I did consider a merge, but I don't like to merge uncited material into another article as I feel responsible for the content. It would also be WP:Undue to have so much information about this institute. I feel a redirect to Faculty of Agricultural Science and Food in Skopje is sufficient as it is a potential search term and is already listed at the target article.

• Comment from nominator There is the National Institute of Animal Biotechnology an Indian institution, which is a much more likely. target[4] This may complicate things (particularly any merges). AIRcorn (talk) 23:18, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. There are no refs in this article and 2 external links that don't establish notability. The proposed alternate redirect target shouldn't be pursued because there are many of these institutes around the world. A merge shouldn't be pursued because the information in the article isn't encyclopedic, it is mundane. Szzuk (talk) 20:59, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  Comment, suggest a third relist, the discussion has been on going for months so another week shouldn't be a problem. Szzuk (talk) 08:48, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Even after a month of discussing it, there are zero references in the article, and none suggested here. I wouldn't be opposed to a redirect per WP:AFD, but the title is so generic, it's almost pointless. I suppose we could start with the redirect as as other similarly named institutes become known, turn it into a WP:DAB page if necessary. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:15, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
