The result was   delete. No evidence or argument for notability, and as there are multiple non-notable Braden Awards, it's not clear what a good redirect, if any, would be. j⚛e deckertalk 14:36, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Braden Award

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Non-notable college award. No real indication of no real indication of notability, no effort to provide sources to prove notability per WP:GNG. I don't even think that it has any notable recipients (not that notable recipients makes it a notable award, WP:INHERIT, but the lack of notable recipients seems to indicate lack of notability.)  Notability in questions since April 2012, without resolution. GrapedApe (talk) 12:19, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment – The CWRU navbox lists it under traditions, so perhaps the lead should be summarized and redirected to Case Western Reserve University? Regards, RJH (talk) 19:21, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Weatherhead School of Management. I was about to suggest a merge and redirect, however, the fact that it is one of 16 awards granted by that department leads me to believe that it isn't particularly notable as awards go. Redirect because they are cheap and it is a plausible search term. Location (talk) 15:25, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
 * On second thought, not sure how useful the redirect would be since the title of the award is "Andrew D. Braden Award for Excellence in Auditing and Financial Reporting Studies" and there appear to be a couple of other Braden Awards. Location (talk) 15:32, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - Accounting Today April 2, 2007 mentions "James G. Castellano, chairman of RubinBrown LLP, St. Louis, has received the Braden Award from Case Western Reserve University's Weatherhead Department of Accountancy." GlobeNewswire November 24, 2008 press release mentions "Mr. Bible is also the first-ever preparer recipient of the Andrew Braden Award from Case Western Reserve University's Weatherhead School of Management." That's about the only reliable source info out there. Not enought for an article on the topic per WP:GNG. There are other Braden Awards: Wichita Symphony Orchestra has a "Robert G. Braden Award".. There is a "The "Ned Braden" award., and The Margie Braden Award.. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 05:17, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per the above. Not a notable award. Redirect not warranted. Location (talk) 12:58, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
