Just a comment...what is it advertising? It's an important scholarship if you're a grad student at a university in Ontario. So I guess it is of limited appeal, but that does cover thousands or tens of thousands of people. (I don't know about everyone else, but I have to go through the tedious process of applying for one every year...) Adam Bishop 00:20, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge but DO NOT Redirect with Ontario. "OGS" is a common acronym for "Office of Graduate Studies" or some such thing at many universities. --best, kevin ···Kzollman | Talk··· 01:36, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A complete merge requires the article to be redirected. If the title is inappropriate, please move it to a more appropriate one before the merge. - Mgm|^(talk) 08:59, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Can you merge and then make OGS a disambig page that refers to the common use of the acronym? Otherwise I suggest a move and merge with OSAP. --best, kevin ···Kzollman | Talk··· 15:22, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Adam Bishop. Needs to be cleaned up and expanded. --File:Ottawa flag.png Spinboy 03:14, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into a larger article about graduate scholarships in Ontario and how to apply for them, and so forth. This way we don't have an article on every scholarship. --File:Ottawa flag.png Spinboy 03:19, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- It could be merged with the OSAP article. (I don't think it would be necessary to have a page about graduate scholarships in general...) Adam Bishop 05:13, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete non-notable scholarship (there are lots of them, and they are not notable enough to merge with Ontario (a general page covering a province with ~11.5 million people). Andrew pmk | Talk 03:20, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Merge ~~as per Spinboy~~ into OSAP as per Adam Bishop, and DO NOT merge into Ontario. Completely inappropriate suggestion, that. Bearcat 03:24, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Delete nn. We don't need an article about every funding source. Dottore So 17:58, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, at its new name and turn OGS into a disambig. - SimonP 01:44, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. What makes this scholarship notable and encylopedic? I did not see anything in that article or OSAP. Maybe this information could be included somewhere but do they really need articles? Category:Financial aid is not very large, but what's there are major scholarships. Vegaswikian 06:06, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
