The result was Merge to Durham Students' Union. I'd lean more towards keep if there was anything of value in the article. I have redirected - I leave it to interested editors to perform the merge. ELIMINATORJR 18:18, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Durham Student Theatre

Durham Student Theatre (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article reads like a great-big advert for this organisation. Article asserts no notability whatsoever, particularly through a lack of external, reliable sources. TheIslander 15:10, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I suggest you don't read most the university pages on here as the majority of them are adverts for that particular university. AlexD 08:58, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge to Durham Students' Union. DWaterson 01:42, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge per DWaterson. Would fit fine under services in the Durham Students' Union article. --Bfigura (talk) 21:28, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Making DST part of the 'DSU services' article would be foolish - DST is not a service of DSU, it is an independent society. Status as an advert is accepted, apologies, will reduce it. It's entirely notable, however. An organisation which puts on some 50 shows a year and includes 700 members is certainly of interest to anyone doing research on Student Theatre in the UK, Durham's theatre scene or theatre in the North East. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soulhc (talk • contribs) 13:14, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
