[edit] Oxford Law Society

Another entry on a departmental social society . As the article admits, they are known for organizing departmental balls. Not noteworthy outside the confines of the department. Dr Zak 12:50, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Is noteworthy imo. Cvene64 13:42, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I've never attended Oxford (in fact I'm an Australian) but even I've heard of them. The article itself could do with some more history though.--Brother William 14:44, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I'd support an article on the Monash Law Society but this seems even more notable than that! THE KING 14:51, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - as per above. Another reason why notability is subjective, POV, and should not be used as a criteria for inclusion in or deletion from Wikipedia. DanielZimmerman 20:46, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep but Rewrite Oxbridge law societies are historically important parts of the English legal profession. This article should really focus more on history and influence than on student activities though Bwithh 22:56, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep A poor article, but the number of distinguished former members must be quite enormous. His isn't a standard student society at all, but a network at the heart of the British establishment. Piccadilly 23:37, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep, per above. More than just an average student society, and more than just a champagne tasting club too- recent speakers according to website include e.g. Ian Blair and John Bolton. Badgerpatrol 01:16, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
