**'''Comment''' I like the idea of Symbols -- you're right, the Indian mascot at least deserves as much treatment as the seal. I'm trying to think of what other things could be included there... anything jump to mind? [[User:Kane5187|Dylan]] 01:25, 16 December 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Keep'''. This much detail in the [[Dartmouth College]] article would be clutter there. Include only a brief summary, and the reader who wants more can follow the wikilink to this article.

Revision as of 16:56, 20 December 2006
An article on the seal -- i.e., the insignia -- of Dartmouth College -- not notable beyond maybe a passing mention in the College's main article. Is the seal important beyond Dartmouth? Has it been recognized as historical, ground-breaking, notable, etc. beyond Dartmouth? Has it made an impact on the world beyond Dartmouth? I would characterize this as an indiscriminate collection of information. Dylan 21:16, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- This could very easily be shortened by half and then merged to Dartmouth College.--Dmz5 21:40, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Merge to Dartmouth College. -- Whpq 22:08, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Merge and cleanup, per Dmz5. schi talk 23:48, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep or merge - We have articles about flags and other seals. If it has an interesting history, theres no reason not to keep it. savidan(talk) (e@) 00:03, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep or merge Same as above (Liveforever22 02:53, 15 December 2006 (UTC))
- Delete I don't think the history of the seal of a college is notable. FirefoxMan 16:56, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep of merge It has good, interesting information - why not keep it? An alternate suggestion: perhaps an article on Symbols of Dartmouth College - since in addition to the seal having an interesting history, the Indian mascot has attracted national attention and is barely mentioned elsewhere on Wikipedia. --└ Smith120bh/TALK ┐ 00:01, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
