Quality scale for articles

Please see the Wikipedia article quality scale; it is a good reference point.

The article Washington University Student Union is up for deletion. Unless it can be significantly improved, I have voted that it be merged with the "Campus Life" article. The discussion and voting is taking place here. --Lmbstl (talk) 03:44, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
