The result was keep. postdlf (talk) 21:38, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Functionally, this is no different from a disambiguation page titled Paris/Berlin or Pizza/Hamburger, listing, respectively, Paris and Berlin or Pizza and Hamburger. bd2412T 18:56, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep If you click on the book and scholar search links above, you will see that this abbreviation gets a reasonable amount of usage in sources such as Strategies for the development of reliable QA/QC methods when working with mass spectrometry-based chemosensory systems. It should therefore remain as a blue link to assist navigation and, as there are two equally valid targets, the current approach seems fine. Note that it is our policy that Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy. Warden (talk) 21:09, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, in part based on Wikipedia:Ignore all rules. This article is only grouped as a disambiguation for lack of a better classification. It behaves like a disambiguation article, in that it points the user to Wikipedia articles. Searching "QA/QC" yields a few million search results, where this page is the top search item, so it would be a loss to remove this article. +mt 22:01, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, at first glance silly and a dictdef rather than dab page, but is a common term so useful and we have a wiktionary link too. TWODABs no primary topic. A simple 50:50 split. None of the examples above are similar, and neither is AM/PM. Agree with Bkonrad third may be useful. Widefox; talk 20:22, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Useful dab, nonsense nom with so many g-hits showing its common usage. --(AfadsBad (talk) 22:31, 3 October 2013 (UTC))[reply]
Keep: If it was an abbreviation for a topic covered in Wikipedia it would be a redirect, with no problem; it happens to be an abbreviation for a pair of topics (and heavily used, as ghits show), so this article is a sort of forked redirect, to point readers to the two articles on topics to which it refers. Useful. Nothing to gain in deleting it. WP:IAR if necessary. PamD 16:48, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
