[edit] Master of Medieval Studies
I'm not sure on what grounds since I can't find anything specific to academic degrees. I know schools are considered notable by consensus, I cannot find anything notable about this degree as compared with any other academic degree. Note there's been some discussion that stemmed from tag removal. Travellingcari (talk) 18:50, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Transwiki seems to be too short for an article, and I dont see how it could be expanded. Transwiki it to wikitionary RogueNinjatalk 18:57, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Looking at some of the entries in Category:Master's degrees there are some good, if brief, articles. I see no reason why this one can not be expanded in the same way. --Bduke (talk) 02:36, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

- Comment there's nothing notable about it, therefore in my opinion it fails WP:N. No coverage from independent sources about this masters program doesn't pass WP:N. There doesn't need to be a specific section of WP:N to speak to academic degrees. I understand you disagree with me on principle but there is no reason to nitpick my nominations.

- Weak delete We usually do have articles about significant academic degrees, but phrases used by only one or two programs for what are merely a combination of existing courses does not in my opinion make for notability. It's a M.A. basically, under a fancy specialised name. merge it to something if possible. DGG (talk) 00:05, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, unless a degree in a particular subject is somehow notable in a way I cannot conceive of. Blast Ulna (talk) 07:35, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
