[edit] Omicron Sigma Omicron
Procedurally saved from speedy A7 as a contested PROD. Appears to be a fraternity based at single university. Ignoring the WP:COI-style nonsense in the article, no WP:RS indicating notability per WP:ORG. Delete. --Kinu t/c 21:03, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. In general, a fraternity operating at a single university is not notable unless it is Skull and Bones at Yale or if it has been associated with a crime or tragedy of some kind. There is no evidence that this fraternity is notable. --Eastmain 21:30, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

- Preserve This fraternity, with nearly 80 years of tradition has been an intregral part of Augustana College's tradition (a school which is a link on wikipedia). Furthermore, this fraternity is famous for starting the very first "panty-raid" in the country (FYI: The first reported panty raid occurred at Augustana College on February 24, 1949 when 200 to 300 men raided the Women's Building.). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.217.160.142 (talk) 02:05, 16 May 2007 (UTC).
- And what reliable sources can you provide to verify these claims? --Kinu t/c 04:37, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

- Preserve Omicron Sigma Omicron has a rich tradition of serving the community of Rock Island, Illinois and its surrounding vicinity. Even though it lives under modern standards and keeps in touch with reality the group always remebers its roots and will never give up its obligation to the city. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GMonty (talk • contribs) 08:15, 16 May 2007 (UTC).
- Comment: Again, where are the reliable sources indicating this fraternity meets WP:ORG? --Kinu t/c 17:38, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - Possibly mention in the college's page, in a "list of fraternities", but doesn't deserve its own page. Incidentally, both the "preserve" links smell alike to me: and like ads. Maybe that's how they talk in that fraternity? DewiMorgan 20:06, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
