  • Merge/redirect to Malvern College#Overseas campuses per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. Here are two sources I found about the subject:
    1. "Malvern College Chengdu". China Daily. 2019-07-09. Archived from the original on 2024-09-05. Retrieved 2024-09-05.

      The article notes: "Malvern College Chengdu, which opened in 2015, is a British international school, providing the 12-year elementary, middle and high school education. It is affiliated to Malvern College in the United Kingdom as one of its branch schools in China. The school boasts good facilities and teaching environment. Located beside Chengdu Botanical Garden, the school covers an area of 150 mu (10 hectares), with its green area exceeding 65 percent. Built in British style, it is equipped with an outdoor amphitheater, mini golf course, science laboratories and basketball courts."

    2. Hale, Robert (2018-02-10). "Famous Malvern school opens up new campus in China". Worcester News. Archived from the original on 2024-09-05. Retrieved 2024-09-05.

      The article notes: "Trade secretary Liam Fox MP was one of the witnesses when Malvern College signed an agreement to open its latest overseas venture. Mr Fox was on a trade visit to China along with prime minister Theresa May, when he attended the signing of the landmark deal between Chinese officials and representatives of the school. The agreement is that the college will open up a new campus in Chengdu, China, the school's sixth international opening in seven years. ... The state-of-the-art campus is due to open in 2019 and will eventually, together with the College’s existing campus in Chengdu, which opened in 2015, provide education for more than 1,000 children between the ages of 3 and 18."

    The subject is borderline notable. I am supporting a merge under Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Local units of larger organizations owing to the borderline notability. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow editors to selectively merge any content that can be reliably sourced to the target article. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow the redirect to be undone if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future.

Merge/redirect to Malvern College#Overseas campuses as per Cunard's proposal. The Worcester news article is enough for WP:V, China Daily probably more like regurgitated press release. Oblivy (talk) 05:39, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
