This article only has one source, on a non-notable topic. Delete Me-123567-Me (talk) 13:54, 8 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep. This is a scholarship program which awards 2,000 such scholarships annually, and is managed by the Government of Ontario, the largest province in Canada, in conjunction with all Ontario universities which grant advanced degrees (Master's and PhD). There are more than 30,000 Ghits, including many from those universities. The fact that these are currently not used as references does not imply the topic is not meritorious of inclusion in Wikipedia. Mind  matrix  14:05, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I'm well aware of those. My claim wasn't that it had a lot of hits, it was that many of those hits are reliable sources of information which may be used as references in the article. That is, they are useful hits, not Wikipedia mirrors, blogspam or linkfarms. Mind  matrix  19:12, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep. per mindmatrix. David V Houston (talk) 22:54, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Only having a single source is not a rationale for deletion; the claim that it is "non-notable" is not supported by any rationale at all. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 02:37, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - I have significantly expanded the article, and sourced many of the statements; there are now ten references included. Mind  matrix  20:36, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
