What is the justification for this page? I think this example should stay on the SQL page. Besides, the phrase "a select" strikes me as sloppy and uncommon. I would use "a select-from-where" or "a select expression" but never "a select". Moreover, the article on SQL should contain examples of SQL statements, so I don't see why these were moved and not just copied. -- Jan Hidders 16:02, 19 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

The article begins "A SELECT statement ...". This refers to a particular kind of "statement", that kind which involves the keyword "SELECT". I don't understand your question, unless you think no SQL keyword should have a separate article? --Phil | Talk 16:16, May 19, 2004 (UTC)
