Farook College is both the name of a college and also the name of a small township around the college. ̴̴Prof tpms

[edit]

Those don't look very travel related, and based on google searches, only the mosque and the Al-Farook College seem to be of interest to travellers (for their architecture). Any objections to removing the rest? --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 04:49, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm not so sure. Sometimes, things off the beaten path even to the point that they're not showing up in Google searches might be worthwhile. I'm thinking about the time when my parents, brother and I took a trip to Burgundy and while we were visiting a church in Auxerre, we struck up a conversation with a woman who worked there, and she brought out a huge map of the departement that was like Landsat maps of regions of the U.S., if you're familiar with those (not the ones that show every house, but those at an intermediate level of detail that is still greatly superior to any normal road map) and marked a whole bunch of things to see that were not mentioned in the Michelin guide or other guides we had. We visited most of them, and every single one was worthwhile. I wouldn't have a problem, though, with the "See" section being subdivided into "Main sights" and "Secondary sights." Let's not rush to remove anything and wait for a reaction from Prof tpms, or possibly DaGizza, Matroc or Ravikiran r, if any of them know the area. I don't think it's urgent to make these edits; we can afford to wait. Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:42, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
There are often Secondary places to visit (and yet still important ones not generally listed in other Guides ie. Michelin? or Feodor? (places often known by locals yet interesting enough to be mentioned and visited))... Perhaps just a subdivision of "Other" would suffice. Matroc (talk) 02:34, 12 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks to all of you SHB2000, Matroc, Ikan Kekek for taking interest in the Farook College page. I have removed the clutter of unconnected photographs. Let the text remain because a campus like this, with 20 organizations spread inside the area, can attract "tourists" of different types like parents, relatives, academicians and all types of floating populations. So a little extra information will be useful to these types of unconventional types of visitors.Prof TPMS (talk) 14:33, 15 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
