University of the Philippines Los Baños Institute of Biological Sciences

No specific notability. This is not a first-order division of the university, but only a single department within the CUniversity'sCollege of Arts and Sciences. No notable faculty or alumni are listed. essentially no third-party references. It's already mentioned in the article on the college, and I see no need for a redirect any more than any other within-college program, especially since the heading starts with the same name--nobody looking for it could miss it.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Delete per nom. It's "under the direct supervision of its director and the dean of the College of Arts and Sciences," meaning not independent of the academic hierarchy. Bearian (talk) 21:00, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge anything that isn't in the article yet - No independent notability outside of the college. Still, redirects are cheap. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 05:57, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete (I do not see the need to merge, what should be kept?) A redirect from UPLB IBS to the university page could be considered, but not from the whole title. Tigraan (talk) 13:30, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Selective Merge to University of the Philippines Los Baños, which presently only has a passing mention of the institute. This is a functional WP:ATD that would enhance the merge target article. North America1000 08:44, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Merge per WP:BRANCH as a part of the notable per WP:NSCHOOL University of the Philippines Los Baños, subject falls within the scope of that article. Subject does not appear to be independently notable per WP:GNG, therefore merger into its parent article appears to be appropriate.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 03:40, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Merge as suggested, which is reasonable and a frequent outcome. Bearian (talk) 19:49, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
