Appears to be original research or synthesis. Of course there are many organizations, etc. in the world that have "women and children" in their name, or are restricted to women and children. But that's about it: the term refers to women and children. There's no article needed for describing Women and children as a "unified" concept. B. Wolterding (talk) 18:34, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Odd collection of bits & bobs, not enough to justify an article. Jvhertum (talk) 18:47, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Women and children first (saying). Zagalejo^^^ 18:55, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. I don't think a redirect will save this page; the page suggested for redirection isn't that great either. erc talk/contribs 18:59, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * What's wrong with it? It's a solid stub, and it's expandable, using sources like this. There's lot to say about it within the context of men's rights, for example. Zagalejo^^^ 19:43, 6 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Weak delete "Citation needed" crawls all over this like bugs in a cheap hotel room. The point of the article appears to be that, on our planet, women and children are given priority over men in a wide variety of situations, not limited to "Women and children first" in emergency situations.  Although a "citation added" article about the development of this concept as part of the march of civilization would be worthwhile, this truly is the "odd collection of bits & bobs" as one editor put it.

 * Redirect to Women and children first (saying), where we have cited material on the subject. This article reads as synthesis and original research. Jfire (talk) 20:44, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete As per WP:OR. The term is very loosely defined and can mean many things. Wikipedia should not be coming up with new definitions of old sayings. SWik78 (talk) 21:59, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per above.  Yahel  Guhan  04:15, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete If we take the title at face value this is an article about the majority of humans who have ever lived. Better start a new one about "prefences for women and children" or "explotation of women and children" or whatever the topic is that you want to discuss.Steve Dufour (talk)
