[edit] Confusion - Some people

There are people today who believe the General Certificate of Education was abolished, not thinking that it was only the lower half of the GCE that was abolished, thats because we don't refer to A levels as GCE A levels, but people at one time did call their O' Levels "GCEs". Some people would be my way of saying people in general, maybe a bad way to say it, but this is wikipedia and if there is a better way to mention this then be my guest, it's an open encyclopedia afterall. Though your correct, this is actually original research made by myself, which actually will not have any references at the moment, but I am hoping to find something.Amlder20 13:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

If it's original research by yourself, then by definition it shouldn't be on Wikipedia at all per WP:OR. I understand what you're trying to say here, but you can't cite either yourself (unless you've been published) or "some people" as a source iridescent (talk to me!) 14:01, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
It's been removed because could not back it up. Amlder20 16:33, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

The information on this page is contradicted by the page on General Certificate of Education, with respect to the fail grade and others. 199.71.183.2 20:57, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

The things is that with the Advanced Level, an A is a pass and an E, the truth is that in the GCE article, no one really knows what the D and E really stood for and seems rather vague if anyone knows whether that is true or not. Anyway, I have included that in the article to prevent any future edit-wars. Amlder20 13:30, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
