[edit] Indian Computing Olympiad

• Merge to International Olympiad in Informatics. NN on its own, but useful when merged. (|-- UlTiMuS 10:00, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect per Ultimus. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:48, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - To say that the competition is non-notable would be incorrect. Per this the competition had 6300 participants taking part. Merging this into International Olympiad in Informatics would be inappropriate as this competition is not part of the main event, but a competition held to select the team to take part in the international event. The competition is organised by CBSE. See Category:Olympiads in India. - Aksi_great (talk - review me) 12:58, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - agreed. Kprateek88 05:49, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and expand: Why non-notable? There are enough precedents. See USA, China, Britain, C.Europe, or see USA, Britain (and others) in Maths, etc. --Shreevatsa 16:26, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Apart from what I said above (other examples include South African Computer Olympiad and HKOI), it should also be noted that there are literally tens of thousands of potential participants who might be interested in this article. Also, most of the material for this article is scattered in the ZIO and INOI and IOITC articles (strange that this one should get an AfD before those...), so it is perhaps a good idea to merge those articles into this one. Does Merge and keep sound good? --Shreevatsa 18:32, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
