Personal Project (International Baccalaureate)

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

Delete an essay basically explaining that a personal project is required to get this degree - no context, references, or anything to focus what we're talking about here. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:00, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, not sure what the criteria is since it's not OR. It's.... definitely not encyclopedic content TRAVELLINGCARI My storyTell me yours 19:19, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. I would otherwise recommend merging, but there is very little here that can be salvaged. Moreover, the entire International Baccalaureate series itself is in need of paring down (Compare the IB series, devoted to grammar school and high school curricula, to Wikipedia's treatment of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) Pop Secret (talk) 19:29, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. How exactly will "paring down" the IB articles help to improve our coverage of GATT? Phil Bridger (talk) 22:38, 3 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Redirect to IB Middle Years Programme where this is covered. The personal project is a fairly major part of the MYP, and something which sets it apart from other curricula, so coverage is warranted. The article is presently written "to a student" with all the "you" references, rather than "to the general population" (which would use a third-person "students" reference). With the topic already adequately covered in another article, just placing a redirect should be OK. Sjakkalle (Check!)  06:55, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Nah. I doubt many people are searching "Personal Project (International Baccalaureate)" nor, for some reason, do I think a delete of this article will drown us in a sea of redlinks. Pop Secret (talk) 04:48, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * The reason (well, my reason at least) for placing redirects on articles which have been removed is that a reader who has seen that there is an article here, and wants to access it again later, may be confused if the article suddenly goes away and there is no signpost to point them to the correct place. Since redirects are so cheap, we can place them liberally without all that much concern as to how many actually use it. Sjakkalle (Check!)  06:37, 5 May 2008 (UTC)


 * DeleteNot suitable for an encyclopedia. And pretty useless if you don't know anything about the IB already.--Doug Weller (talk) 18:15, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect, as redirects are cheap, to IB Middle Years Programme, where is subject is much better covered.-- danntm T C 21:33, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
