The result was delete. It is mostly just the song, which is likely still copyrighted. Merging the entire song doesn't seem particularly like fair use either. IronGargoyle 21:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sons of Marshall

Sons of Marshall (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable group that contains no encyclopedic information. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 06:48, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Delete - well, "Sons of Marshall" is, indeed, the Marshall University fight song, and could probably be mentioned there. It's also not a "group" - it's a term, referring to students at Marshall. However, such a term is not notable, since "Sons of X" is a common English expression, and I cannot find any sources which make this formulation special. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Haemo (talk • contribs)

• Merge with Marshall University entry. Bradybd 07:30, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
• Merge with a mention in the uni article with no prejudice against someone attempting to write a better article on the fight song in the future. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 12:32, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
• Merge with... that other school. The Mountaineer in me would like to see the whole thing shredded, burned, shredded again, and buried in 10 feet of concrete. But that's just me. (In the interest of full disclosure, both of my parents graduated from Marshall... and both then went on to get graduate degrees from WVU) DarkAudit 15:07, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
