This article is an orphan and the content is clearly outdated. Furthermore there are no other articles on other Leaving Certificate subjects, for example "Leaving Certificate economics, business, Irish, English, etc." This article could possibly be moved to the Leaving Certificate (Ireland) article or deleted altogether.

To be honest, I think it can probably go. The information is mostly either already in the Leaving Certificate (Ireland) or is out of date. David Malone (talk) 14:29, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect the the Leaving Certificate article Oaktree b (talk) 15:35, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I'm usually in favor of redirect rather than deleting when we have a reasonable target like we do here. But in this case, it violates one of the main rules for titling on Wikipedia - WP:PRECISE. A reader looking here to find information about the mathematics leaving certificate in Britain wouldn't find any help. 4.37.252.50 (talk) 04:15, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The term "Leaving Certificate" is most commonly used to refer to the Irish secondary qualification (a quick Google will show this), so I would not think many readers would expect to see any other nation's educational qualitifcations referred to with this term. Nepal's school leaving examination is called the School Leaving Certificate, abbreviated as SLC, but as the word "School" is used in the name as well, this prevents any mix ups. pinktoebeans ^(talk) 14:39, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Leaving Certificate (Ireland) merging any relevant information. And while we're at it, could we rename Leaving Certificate (Ireland) to Leaving Certificate (which is currently a redirect), per my reasoning above? pinktoebeans ^(talk) 14:39, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Leaving Certificate (Ireland) per above. - Indefensible (talk) 17:36, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
