Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of University of Texas at Austin rankings

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was merge to University of Texas at Austin. Only for the main article, not the supplementary additions to the debate, as there was less discussion of these. I feel it also necessary to echo DGG's comment here: if the nominator believed that a merge was the most appropriate course of action, why was this brouht to AfD? Begin discussions on the talkpages of the other two rankings pages if merges are desirable, as these debates seem to indicate is true. Fritzpoll (talk) 08:17, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List of University of Texas at Austin rankings[edit]

Per WP:IINFO and WP:SYN. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Duke University rankings for discussion of similar page that resulted in a merge. Merge/Delete. Bluedog423^Talk 17:24, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I am also nominating the following related pages because they all relate to university-specific ranking lists:

Delete - notable rankings can be adequately covered in the main UT at Austin article, no need for a separate article on all possible rankings of the school or individual departments. Afroghost (talk) 17:31, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Same applies for Purdue and Penn State, delete these two lists, too. Afroghost (talk) 21:25, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Afroghost. This should be incorporated into the main UTA article. Themfromspace (talk) 20:34, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I see the two other universities' lists have been added and my vote goes for them as well. Themfromspace (talk) 21:28, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete We're not the Consumer Reports of college rankings. All of them are subjective data and not used in any way to develop a NPOV view of each school. Nate • (chatter) 13:53, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is raw data, not an encyclopedia article. Northwestgnome (talk) 14:19, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep/Merge to Main article This is useful information, though perhaps not for its own article. ErikTheBikeMan (talk) 18:03, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep; no objection to a merge. Well sourced; useful. TerriersFan (talk) 02:59, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge As we did before. I don't see the utility of bringing merges here as a matter of routine. It shouldnt be difficult to get consent on the article talk pages, especially after the first decision here. DGG (talk) 23:33, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge each, but agree this should never have come to AfD, i don't even see a talk page notification about possible merging.Yob Mod 13:58, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
