changes made[edit]

In the US, special education students receive an IEP diploma when they cannot meet the requirements for the high school diploma. I changed it to stigma..i removed that last part b/c it isn't neutral to the US. In the US, students must receive enough credits in order to graduate. If you don't have enough, you can't be acknowledged in the graduation ceremony. In that case, you would have to stay in high school until you have enough credits. I'm not sure about Canada so I left it the same.(209.177.21.6 - talk)

I am very aware that one must pass all required testing in order to graduate. However if a student did not receive enough credits to graduate, they will not even get a certificate of attendance. They would either have to repeat the year or pass the GED. This is how it works in the American education system. --Typetrust (talk) 16:38, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Localism[edit]

A certificate of attendance can be given from many different institution, not just North American Univeristy. For example see this generic description. The article is localist, at least with current name. I inserted the wikidata language tag as the "generic concept" but I am happy to discuss. We can move this and create a more specific wikidata item.--Alexmar983 (talk) 12:49, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to create certificate of attendance here. The item d:Q5065100 where this item is linked does not have capital "a".--Alexmar983 (talk) 12:53, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I made a stub and now I fix the item on wikidata.--Alexmar983 (talk) 14:01, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Certificate of attendance[edit]

This article was moved to this title (Certificate of Attendance) because of "capitalisation reasons", but this title is incorrect, and the original title "Certificate of attendance" is. The articles should be merged together under the original title "Certificate of attendance". Tom29739 ^[talk] 10:28, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't care much whether it will be with 'a' or with 'A', but these two articles must be merged, and the sooner the better. Orielno (talk) 15:48, 3 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I support the merge. There appears to be no clear distinction between the topics. Dialectric (talk) 02:11, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed and
