The result was merge to Polytechnic University of the Philippines. There does not seem to be sufficient material for a separate article yet DGG ( talk ) 04:03, 14 January 2011 (UTC) reply
The article is nothing but a duplication of an existing page, which is the Polytechnic University of the Philippines.
Formal naming conventions of Philippine universities and colleges states that main campuses adhere to the institutions' generic name (see state colleges and universities naming conventions). UP System is an exemption, because each campuses are of equal standing with each other. If we'll continue to use PUP for the system and PUP Manila for the main campus, it seems like PUP Main is just like the different PUP campuses. PUP Main (or what you call PUP Manila) is the PUP itself. Also, it doesn't have the same standing as other campuses since its is the Main and the most important entity of the university. It's just that the university has extension campuses and branches. See the conventions used by University of Michigan, Mindanao State University and University of Washington. PUP Manila is not recognized by CHED as the official name for the PUP main campus. It should be simply called PUP in formal documents, except for satellite campuses. It is the same convention used by other philippine universities and colleges. The article PUP and PUP Manila create confusion for others, because they will think that PUP Manila is just a branch of PUP. PUP is not a full-fledged university system like the University of the Philippines or University of California. It is a university in Manila with extension campuses around the country.
