Talk:Middlebury Institute

My conflict of interest

Per WP:COI let me admit I'm the current web master of the institute's web page for which I've been paid a whopping $400 odd bucks over the last two years. But I've been careful about my edits and always willing to yap ad nauseum about specific policy issues :-) I'm also web master of my own site http://secession.net for which I don't get paid anything. :-) Carol Moore 20:34, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Should this article exist?

I question whether a center, independent of the more well known Middlebury College, which has a unit called the Middlebury Institute, can be considered as meeting WP:SUSTAINED when the center is based off of a declaration that is no longer viewable and the only other basis of the article is 2 conferences in consecutive years that attracted only a double digit number of attendees. Some citations, such as the Zogby poll are not directly relevant to the post on the Middlebury Institute. Additionally, per WP:NAMINGCRITERIA, specifically WP:PRECISE, now that MIIS is more commonly known as the Middlebury Institute and not the Monterey Institute, wouldn't MIIS take priority for having the page Middlebury Institute or at least a disambiguation be created (however I do not think that this latter solution would be optional)? 2601:642:C301:119A:BC5F:598:C067:17C2 (talk) 07:48, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

RfC WP:ATD-R per WP:SUSTAINED to Middlebury Institute of International Studies

Based on a lack of sustained activity by this Middlebury Institute as well as the issue that the name is not precise, should an WP:ATD-R to Middlebury Institute of International Studies be completed?2601:642:C301:119A:BC5F:598:C067:17C2 (talk) 07:57, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment it is already redirecting to other article. Lorstaking (talk) 12:56, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, so I have closed this RFC. If there had not been such a redirection already, WP:RFC would still have been inappropriate, since this would have been a WP:MERGE matter. Even if that had not been the case, the RfC was malformed in that the {{rfc}} template was after, not before, the RfC opening statement. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:41, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
