[edit] IB geek

Delete. This is of dubious encyclopedic value and seems to be a rant against International Baccalaureate. Andrew pmk 00:43, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• Delete -- useless and non-notable. It's more like a rant against kids taking an International Baccalaureate program. Zzyzx11 01:55, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - Non-notable, and aye, it seems most like a rant. -- Cabhan 02:06, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, nn. But there is a precedent for a keep with Band geek. However, I voted delete on that one, so this one goes too. --Idont Havaname 02:17, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Changed the page, removed the "rant against the International Baccaulaureate" portion. I was in IB myself and agree with what this person was trying to say.

• Delete, POV. I am in IB and have experienced no such phenomenon. Wikipedia is not a repository for the sociological anecdotes of amateur high-school psychologists. Jdcooper 19:10, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Comment: This was apparently never listed on vfd, so I'm putting it on today's page. —Korath (Talk) 00:53, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Unencyclopedic. Dave the Red (talk) 04:03, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Take it from the horse's mouth, guys, IB Geeks are non-notable. Many are so non-notable that they sit around voting on VfD all day!Halidecyphon 05:33, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Agreed, I am utterly non-notable. Sjakkalle 07:21, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Personal essay. /sɪzlæk˺/ 06:34, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, with same reasoning as Halidecyphon. Ahem. --Jonathan Christensen 06:37, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I am an "IB-Geek" myself and I don't recognize myself at all in this "article's" description. Nonsense. Sjakkalle 07:21, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. IB-Geekcruft. -- 8^D ^gab 07:34, 2005 Apr 7 (UTC)

• Yet another one of the IB kids coming in to chime that this is not-notable. Delete. (The tests are kinda hard, though ;) ) Mike H 12:40, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)
