Alexander Henderson Award
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable award. No third party sources provided to establish notability, as required by WP:N. While the award has some notable recipients, that doesn't necessarily mean that it's notable (WP:NOTINHERITED.
 * With 1+ year since last AFD, and no new sources added and no expansion of content.
 * Previous AFD was "no consensus to delete" but that "there may be a consensus to merge." Well, my attempts to merge Tepper School of Business to main were reverted (to the point that the article became protected). GrapedApe (talk) 03:28, 19 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Redirect - There is no independent notability, and merge was the appropriate action. I see no new sourcing that changes my view that this should not be a standalone article.  And as the content has been merged, retaining a redirect is needed. -- Whpq (talk) 03:56, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect: There was certainly a consensus to merge before. Come to that, I'm not a little bit disgusted that of the three Keep proponents in the prior AFD - whose argument was that despite black-letter policy, notability should be inherited - two were anon IPs with less than ten edits between them, neither of whom ever made another edit, and the third has made about fifty edits since. (This leaving aside that the third editor promptly began edit warring to prevent any merger or redirect.)  This article is unimproved in six years, and the ones most eager to preserve it seem militantly uninterested in improving it or sourcing it.  Could we, this time out, pretty please have a closing admin who has a feel for policy over nose count, especially when the side arguing against policy entirely consists of ephemeral accounts?
