List of Northeastern University presidents

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

As much as I like NEU I don't think such a narrow topic merits its own page. Not even older schools like MIT have pages like this EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 06:37, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I do also like the idea of merging to list of people more so than deletion now. EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 20:58, 31 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep Such articles are perfectly routine and encyclopedic. Se Category:Lists of university and college leaders. Rather than deleting the ones that are to be found we would be better creating the ones that are missing. Thincat (talk) 14:04, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh, we do have List of Presidents of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology but, sadly, it is unreferenced. So much for scholarship. Thincat (talk) 14:06, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge to Northeastern University. No real need for a separate list article. Ajf773 (talk) 17:26, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of Northeastern University people, where this would fit in quite well since it's such a small list. -- Tavix ( talk ) 17:28, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment Yes (I !voted above), I'd be happy with either of those merge suggestions though I still think keeping would be all right – I'd not like it thinking these type of lists are unencyclopedic or too narrow to warrant an article. List of Vice-Chancellors of the University of Oxford would not be a good list to merge! Thincat (talk) 09:23, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep - I don't feel that presidents at a major university is too narrow a field, as per WP:SALAT. Onel 5969  TT me 20:29, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep I agree with the above keep recommendations. Article is well sourced and well categorized so that anyone could find it. Aurornisxui (talk) 17:33, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
