F (Grade)

 * Delete per nom. Artw 06:18, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * F per nom Jammo (SM247) 06:58, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per itsJamie. Rather difficult to end up here, and it is beter described where jamie pointed out, no need to make a whole article.  As its difficult to get here, there's no need for a redirect.  Disambiguation to Grade_%28education%29 already exists in each letter's disambiguation pages.  There are no articles for the other major letter grades used like this either. Kevin_b_er 07:05, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, useless, redundant. --Ter e nce Ong 09:02, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete, per nom. (insulting also) Rob 13:35, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, though it did give me a chuckle. It's already covered at Grading in the United States and in the article for the letter F itself. Kafziel 14:21, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Article gets an F- from me. :) Paddles TC 15:58, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * D- not an "F" or a good article. Either way it doesn't make the grade. Voice of Treason 20:44, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I am the creator of this article. I nominated it for deletion. So far, I've been getting Delete. 90% chance of being deleted. This is the first article I have nominated for deletion. How many votes should an article have before it gets deleted? GBA 00:21, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * If you're the article's creator and wanted it deleted there's no reason for us to need to vote on this, you could have speedied it yourself. Voice of Treason 00:33, 10 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Grade (education). Lbbzman 00:29, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Grade (education) seems reasonable, though the "(Grade)" disambiguation would make this a fairly uncommon search term. — TKD::Talk 00:39, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Lbbzman and TKD. --Allen 01:16, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete the reason for not redirecting is that users will rarely enter "F (Grade)" when they are searching for information on the grade. Grades themselves can be better covered by an article on grade (education) than individual enteries. Cedars 01:55, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. Hi, I concur that a user is unlikely to enter "F (Grade)" when searching for this information. However, I'd think it would be plausible that someone would enter F Grade into the Wikipedia search or Google when looking for this information. Having a redirect would allow for more relevant search results. Cheers, Lbbzman 02:51, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. Also, redirects are cheap and help to prevent the same article from being created again (if it was created once...) — TKD::Talk 02:53, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment This article was deleted earlier, but now it's been un-deleted. I think it should stay deleted. I agree that not too many people would type F (Grade) in the Wiki search. Giant Blue Anteater 03:01, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. I think a Wikipedian might be reasonably likely to type in "F (Grade)", knowing that "F" would take them to the article on the letter itself. And as more readers get used to Wikipedia conventions, they might type it in too.  Not that this particular redirect is exactly crucial; I'm just discussing for the sake of the principle.  (I'm kind of a redirect fan.)  --Allen 03:08, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. Note that the earlier deletion of this article was a clerical error. The AfD had not had time to run its course. Cheers, Lbbzman 04:45, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
