[edit] Love Oxford
event was one of many thousands of annual gatherings of lots of Christians around the world. Current sources are the website of the event itself, and a tiny mention in the local press. Note that there was no national press coverage, and the local coverage was minmal. If anything, this deserves a small mention in the Oxford Martyrs or Martyrs' Memorial article. Certainly not werll enough sourced or notable enough for its own article. Batmanand | Talk 10:02, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

- Weak Delete, I agree in just about all points per nomination, but if it could be proven to me that "Love Oxford was a history-making Christian event" is correct, I'd change to a weak keep. May I however suggest asking WikiProject Christianity for their view? --NigelJ talk 10:25, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

- It was certainly historical for Oxford, involving reuse of a very old, discarded law, and bringing out more people onto the streets than in any other public gathering in the city for the last several centuries. I realise Wikipepdia is not a catalogue of reality and all its minor happenstances, but of significant, noteworthy points of fact and history, ones likely to be searched for by users. I think this qualifies for that. Easily. 86.130.247.16 02:45, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
