Matthew Shepard Scholarship

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Lacks the necessary multiple sources to meet WP:N. No doubt worthy, but non-notable. Delete recommendation Bridgeplayer 18:02, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to Matthew Shepard. Struggles on independent notability, but surely worth a paragraph in the main article. especially with two notable recipients.  Eliminator JR  Talk  18:20, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge per EliminatorJR's suggestion; not notable on its own, but probably worth a short mention at Matthew Shepard. Krimpet (talk) 18:33, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge per EliminatorJR. Merits a paragraph at Matthew Shepard, maybe as part of a "Legacy" section or similar. However, I wouldn't include everything in the current article; the list of recipients is unnecessary, and it's not clear that the two active links in the list actually point to the correct people.

 * Hmm, Josh Olson definitely isn't the same one (compare the photos at and, and the other link leads to a dab page.  I still stick with Merge & Redirect, though  Eliminator JR  Talk  19:52, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, scholarships abound, and this one just has a famous name, not independent notability. If merged per above, do not include the list of recipients. --Dhartung | Talk 22:28, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete This is a local scholarship, available only at three colleges in Iowa. The list of recipients, almost all red links, is an indication of non-notability.,02:20, 23 May 2007 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by DGG (talk • contribs)
 * Delete At best this should be a sentance in the Matthew Shepard article. If kept, then we should include any scholarship offered Jmcnamera 03:47, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
