- Alan Barnes Travelling Scholarship ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View log | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Non-notable award. Of 500 GBP (about 600 USD). Fails WP:GNG. A Google search returns just 125 results - which is impressively low in itself. A news search returns nothing at all. Not even trivial passing mentions. (As a Northern Ireland-based topic, I searched in the Belfast Telegraph, the Newsletter, the BBC and others, and couldn't find even a single passing mention). While, in a 2016 de-prod note it was suggested that the article could be merged, there is nothing cited to merge. Nor can I find any refs to support even a minimal amount of merged text. The organisation that issues these scholarships/awards doesn't seem to maintain a list of recipients, so how would we support any of the merged content?). Seems a clear case of why we have WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:NOTDIRECTORY guidelines... Guliolopez ( talk) 21:12, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
