Hay Grade

Subject may not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines. Hay Grade is a proprietary HR evaluation method and it is unclear if even its creator, the Hay Group meets notability guidelines. It has been a year since the article was created and no contributors were able to establish enough facts about the subject to assert notability. The articles that link to this subject also does not assert the importance of using the Hay Grade as an evaluation method. -- Emana 20:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete, I found one reference to this in Google Books. The "Hay Job Evaluation System" (of which this seems to be a derivative part) is the more general and better-known term. Google Books results Possibly salvageable with a massive rewrite, not sure if it's worth it. (Hay Group itself is a major employment consultant and has been for decades; it should be trivial to source.) --Dhartung | Talk 22:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * This article was probably requested by somebody who was too lazy to Google it. It is true that the Hay Group does have extensive market reach in its industry, but the term or usage of it may not be notable enough to be its own article. It may be more worthwhile to expand the Hay Group article. -- Emana 19:44, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
