The result was   redirect to Physician assistant. Redirecting (along with the other masters programs here) to the target article suggested in the AfD. I won't merge any content, but any editor can do that by pulling from the history of the redirected page. (non-admin closure) Protonk (talk) 02:06, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Master of Physician Assistant Studies

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Per Articles for deletion/Master of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, we shouldn't have articles on every possible name and shape of a master's degree. Also, this article is little more than a dicdef. Punkmorten (talk) 14:26, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Redirect (as in, you didn't need to bring this to AfD) to Physician assistant. Jclemens (talk) 17:25, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge/redirect to Physician assistant. This would be a useful enhancement to that page. TerriersFan (talk) 18:22, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * ... Except that the MPAS page is currently a stub and Physician assistant already has amply more content. Jclemens (talk) 18:27, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * ... Physician assistant is less than 15K, about a quarter of the recommended maximum size. I would hazard a guess than an additional sentence would not cause it to be over-balanced :-) TerriersFan (talk) 18:54, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I wasn't being direct enough: There's nothing I can see worth merging in the article as it stands. 100% of its content is already in the target article, hence a straight redirect is sufficient. Jclemens (talk) 18:56, 17 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete -- given the variety of university degrees that exist, I don't think we should have articles on any except the most common ones (e.g. BA, MA, BSc, MSc, MBA, PhD, etc.) Basically, universities can and do concoct any degree names they feel like. --SJK (talk) 07:41, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Physician's assistant, and make one for the other degrees mentioned there as well. DGG (talk) 00:15, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
