Statistics in Society (MDST242)[edit]

Delete. Individual university are courses are not inherently notable in themselve. This course may have been the longest running course within its university and notably multi-disciplinary but those features aren't especially notable in their own right (although perhaps worthy of briefly being included in the trivia section for Open University.

Delete, inherently non-notable. Since it makes some attempt to sound notable, I'm not going to speedy it, but I think WP:SNOW applies here. —Cuivi é nen 14:16, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete First, no references to show it is notable or that it existed. Second, why is a "long running course" notable? Should we have article saying that "Torts 1" is the oldest course taught by the Yale Law School, etc for every college in the world? I don't think so. But isf the fact that something is "the oldest course," "the biggest ball of twine," "the smartest parrot" or whatever and there are lots of news articles, TV documentaries, and scholarly articles about it over a long period of time, then by all means create an article, since it is notable.

Redirect. There is an off change that someone may search for this, redirecting preserves GDFL, and it doesn't hurt anything. Movementarian (Talk) 20:54, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Completely non-notable, no one will ever search for it Hobbeslover ^{talk/contribs} 06:22, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Delete - might just warrant a footnote in the OU article but this is Not Notable At All. Pete Fenelon 00:55, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
