Such a wide concept, not sure its point is clear in this unreferenced article. Boleyn (talk) 16:23, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Field trip. This should be a pretty straightforward solution, since that is the thing to which the document relates. BD2412 T 03:14, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
When I was at school, I used permission slips to leave classes early for medical appointments, or to consent to my photograph being taken. I remember we had a yellow slip with about ten different checkboxes and the staff would just tick the applicable box for what permission was needed. So it wasn't just for field trips.

Another big one – permission to skip the lunch queue/enter the canteen at a specified time without queueing, for those taking part in lunch clubs. IgnatiusofLondon (he/him • ☎️) 10:05, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well the current content is about field trips, and it would probably be better to merge there than go nowhere. BD2412 T 02:48, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, field trip could mention that permission slips are needed for students to attend. But that mention should occupy no more than a sentence of the article, and permission slip is entirely unreferenced. It is likely easier for an editor to find one source that supports whatever should be briefly said about permission slips at field trip than for an editor to merge the article.

Delete and do not merge. In universities in the US permission slips are used to register for classes with limited enrollments and for other cases. Merging would be inappropriate because the term has far more general usage. Ldm1954 (talk) 00:43, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
