I doubt if there's any more to be said on this subject. Deb 18:06, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Neutral, leaning toward keep. This would be an interesting concept if it weren't confined to a single university (apparently). Could be merged with grade (education), a nonexistent article on academic misconduct, or plagiarism. --MarkSweep 22:21, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- I think it´s funny that the students who got Fs the regular way wish to distance themselves from those who got Fs for cheating. You know, because you´re so much better if you WORKED for that failing grade. XF for unimportance. delete --Handel 22:25, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- If you cheated, that's a strike against your personal character that could come back to haunt you--not the sort of thing you'd want known. If you just got a regular F, it just means you had some problems that semester, or that's what you can tell people--it's much easier to justify. Anyway, delete but mention on the university page; until there's proof that this concept is more widespread, doesn't deserve its own article or mention in the "grade" article.

- Delete, or merge without redirect to one of the destinations suggested by MarkSweep. Cdc 00:23, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- I may be going against the flow here, but I say keep. The interesting nature of the concept seems to outweigh the fact that it's only present at one university. The information is verfiable (the proposal is on the University's site, and it should be mentioned in the next printing of their catalog too), and the article, while a stub, is fairly well written. - RedWordSmith 23:46, Nov 30, 2004 (UTC)
- Trivia. Merge with Wichita State University. --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway Talk ]] 00:06, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Keep because it's an interesting phenomenon. It might be or become more widespread, so this information shouldn't be lost Kappa 00:08, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- The article is inaccurate, though. According to http://www.uwrf.edu/esis/NonAttendanceGradeReporting.htm, XF is given as the failing grade for non-attendance, to differentiate for the purposes of Title IV funding (whatever that is.) --jpgordon{gab} 00:36, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
