The result was   no consensus. Mike Cline is the only editor here who makes a fair argument for keeping, everything else is WP:ITSUSEFUL. I also can't see why someone would say "delete or rename". Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:23, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Clearly meets WP:NOTESAL notability criteria with these sources which enumerate PM&R programs as a group, , and the books contained in this google scholar search. Additionally, since the great majority of entries already have WP articles, inclusion is not indiscriminate.  That said, individual entries should have citations verifying they indeed have these programs. --Mike Cline (talk) 14:20, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete, or Rename as per Stuartyeates]. When did we become a catalog of residency programs? --[[User:Dennisthe2| Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 23:02, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - A useful encyclopedia entry to learn about PM&R residency programs in the United States, and a useful navigation aid per the listings in the article. Northamerica1000 (talk) 05:40, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - Agree with renaming to Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency Programs in the United States, as stated above. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northamerica1000 (talk • contribs)


 * Keep Useful thing to have for the encyclopedia. This isn't some bit of nonsense like list of variety shops in the United States that sell fake dog poo.  This is something useful to those who want to get an education, and which to know where they can find what they are trying to study.  Wikipedia is a tool for education.  Just rename it, as others have said.  No sense using initials most people wouldn't know the meaning of.   D r e a m Focus  16:28, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
