Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Situational Incompetence

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 Peter principle. Clear consensus to not keep. Less clear whether to delete, redirect, or merge. WP:ATD and WP:CHEAP argue for one of the later, but still unclear what the correct target is. I'm going with Peter principle, but feel free to discuss alternates on the talk page and/or be WP:BOLD. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:07, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

An essay on a non-notable neologism. The term "situational incompetence" is only used in an IT context in a recent paper by Darryl Carlton. power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:25, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, strange that article does not mention the Peter principle. Coolabahapple (talk) 02:13, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per WP:CHEAP to the Peter principle. They are the exact same thing. Bearian (talk) 01:14, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into Incompetence, which is explicitly needing more material to develop as a broad concept article. The word situational doesn't add much to this because incompetence naturally depends on the situation. The Peter Principle just refers to a particular situation – promotion – and there are many more situations to cover. Andrew D. (talk) 22:26, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
