International Technological University

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article International Technological University, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of International Technological University.

Hello Chris,

I am Mikel, one of the key people working with and supporting International Technological University. We have been a bona fide university located in Sunnyvale, CA since 1994. I would like to know what I need to post a page of our university. We have significant third party evidence that we are "notable".

Many Thanks, Mikel Duffy IT Manager, ITU www.itu.edu — preceding comment by Mikel.Duffy (talk) 18:44, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
