The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to University of Florida#Career placement. Content was WP:BOLDly merged to the target; given the !vote, low participation, and attribution requirements, closing this as redirect seems the logical result at this point. (It's worth noting that redirects take up less server space than deletion.) The Bushranger One ping only 09:51, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

That this was ranked as good by Princeton Review doesn't mean the resource center gets to have its own article. I've never seen an article on a notable career resource center, and this is not one that deserves it. Drmies (talk) 05:19, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Redirect. Subject is clearly notable based on the results of a simple Google News search and the WP:GNG criteria, but I question whether there is enough general interest encyclopedic content to justify a stand-alone article. Any encyclopedic content not already duplicated by the J. Wayne Reitz Student Union or main University of Florida articles should be merged to the main University of Florida article, with a section-specific redirect to the same. Career placement is a key function of the university worthy of mention in the main article. As for the subject not being "worth a redirect," I gently remind Andrew that redirects are cheap (see essay "Misplaced Pages:Redirects are cheap"). Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 09:23, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Redirect. Should be redirected to an appropriate article. Information provided is informative and notable according to Princeton Review. Jccort (talk) 13:43, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Either delete or redirect to J. Wayne Reitz Union, per nom and Jccort. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:19, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
