Article listed on WP:VFD Aug 30 to Sep 22 2004, consensus was to merge and redirect. Discussion:
- Delete. Non-notable. RSpeer 04:32, Aug 30, 2004 (UTC)
- At least Merge into University of St Andrews. A publication at a very notable university. I can't tell be reading this whether the publication is notable enough to merit its own article: can someone from Scotland weigh in? -- 05:06, Aug 30, 2004 (UTC)
- I agree, this needs to be Merged with the Uni website. It's fairly interesting, but doesn't deserve a page on it's own. Besides, isn't a Mitre a kind of hat that Bishops wear? Saint will 11:52, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: It is a one year old paper, so it's not the student newspaper. It seems like this is the St. Andrews version of The Dartmouth Review: a counter paper. Further, a redirect of this term to University of St Andrews is going to be iffy, because it is an ecclesiastical item. Geogre 12:27, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- To clarify: I would merge without redirection. Yes, the analogy to The Dartmouth Review seems spot on. I see we don't have an article on that. We should. If this paper has even a fraction of the same impact, it deserves at least discussion in the article on the Uni it is attached to. -- Jmabel 16:27, Aug 30, 2004 (UTC)
- The general opinion I've seen is that merging without redirection violates the GFDL. RSpeer 17:34, Aug 30, 2004 (UTC)
- Actually, the ecclesiastical item would be at Mitre or Miter. RickK 19:07, Aug 30, 2004 (UTC)
- Righto. Just thinking of who-knows-what that could grab the title (the Freemason's newsletter? the BPO Elks meeting hall? dunno). Geogre 19:26, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

- Keep. The author has written quite a few lines on the subject. It would be too big just to shove it in the uni article. Trilobite (Talk) 02:25, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- I would recommend a merge, with a dab link to the uni from Mitre... if the vote ends up to keep this article, though, I recomment moving to The Mitre (periodical). We also need to do some disambig work for Mitre vs MITRE. -FZ 13:14, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- What FZ said. Incidentally The Mitre is also the name of a pub in Oxford. Highly unnotable bar the fact that it's a decent pub, just thought I'd mention it... -- Graham ☺ | Talk 15:34, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Hey, managing to find a decent pub in Oxford is notable. -FZ 16:24, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Keep. What Trilobite said. ··gracefool |☺ 04:18, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Keep, it's a worthy article! -- Crevaner 05:47, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
