Delete not every program of every school in every university is notable and this is no exception - a merge with the university's article would be fine too Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:38, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete UAB has 84  residency programs,  and  "the only internal medicine residency program in Central Alabama" isn't enough for notability--not even if it were the only one in all of Alabama. And, in fact, it isn't even the main medical campus--the main UA internal medicine residency program is in Birmingham--this is a sort of secondary program. quite apart of the lack of notability of this program among internal medicine programs, it would take quite a lot to convince me t hat any individual such program is notable, just as for individual university departments. The UA medical school is certainly notable; perhaps even the branch of the UA medical school in Montgomery might be notable, but not one individual program there.  The article is directory-type and public-relations information entirely, and I think I would have called it as speedy-delete for blatant advertising, G11.DGG (talk) 03:36, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Lack of notability. Tim Ross ·talk  19:58, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, could be merged/redirected if fixed WP guidelines allow for a company's product to have an article in some cases. Though UAB is not a company, if rewritten, the article could be merged into University of Alabama Montgomery (similar to the parent company).  In fact, the history section of the article seems like a good start for a UAM article.  Deciding admin should consider creating a new article with the history section of this article and redirect.  If so, I am willing to help with writing, just let me know on my user talk page. Archtransit (talk) 22:31, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
