List of Rutgers University people and places

 * Delete all of this information was in the Rutgers University page and was then removed by a user and put into a page titled Rutgers University Presidents, alumni, faculty, student organizations, buildings and campuses which was then changed to this page. I have re-added the info back to the Rutgers University page so we can discuss what to do with it there. As the page is now it doesn't merit its own article (as currently it could be called a content fork and listcruft as I just moved the info back). Jersey Devil 07:46, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete and merge as per Jersey Devil. &mdash;  Rickyrab | Talk 12:42, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * merge content, delete article name as per above. Roodog2k 14:14, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Works better as a separate article, which is fairly standard practice. See List of Harvard University people, List of Santa Clara University people, or some of the 76 pages at Category:Lists of people by university affiliation - USA. Note that merge does not require AfD. -- JJay 14:33, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * comment I see your point, but this article also includes places. THAT content should certainly be moved to stay in keeping with the other articles you're referencing Roodog2k 14:50, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * It was my understanding that articles can be renamed, edited and merged. All without AfD. When I "vote" on AfD, I base my opinion on whether the subject is suitable for an article. In this case it clearly is. It does not matter that much to me if the list is separate or part of a very long Rutgers article. What does matter is that we affirm that it is valid to list noteworthy grads, places etc connected with Rutgers. -- JJay 15:14, 1 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete as per nom. -- P199 18:21, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Move to List of Rutgers University people per common practice, merge places back into article until (if) a new article is made just for that. E WS23 | (Leave me a message!) 22:51, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as seperate, or something of the sort. Whatever happens, don't merge with the main article and clear it up. (This never should have seen AfD, by the way.) Matt Yeager ♫ ( Talk? ) 07:23, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge to the article on the university. This is not a keep vote. Stifle 22:53, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete with a stick indiscriminate collection of information. John Reid 06:11, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
