The result was merge‎ to Keble College, Oxford. Please be sure that the Merge/Redirect targets you suggest are not themselves Redirects. There is a useful script that shows all Redirects in a green font that is very handy. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 21:11, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is a theatre space within a realtively new building of Keble College, Oxford University. Since clean-up tags were added 11 years ago, there has been no improvement to the article. At best, the article should be redirected to the college article. Sionk (talk) 18:00, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge if any sources can be found. Might just be OR, in which case, delete. I see refs that state that shows were performed there, but they don't say much about the theatre. -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:22, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge. I agree with the above. Bduke (talk) 07:30, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep- I am working on expanding the article with reliable sources. 😎😎PaulGamerBoy360😎😎 (talk) 18:36, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, you have not added any WP:Reliable sources. Only more student newspaper articles. -- Ssilvers (talk) 01:45, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cherwell is a reliable source: the real problem is that these articles only make passing mention of the theatre as the location where the performance (which is the real subject of the articles) is occurring, rather than discussing the theatre itself.

• Merge to Keble College as there's no independent notability of the theatre. I thought there would be something about the construction in the UK papers but I couldn't find anything on Newspapers Extended. Cheers! BBQboffin^{grill me} 00:07, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge the opening lead paragraphs to Keble College#Buildings where the theatre is mentioned under the Modern heading. No need to merge the Performances as non notable. Sources tell us only a little about the theatre or are about the plays performed there. Insufficient, independent coverage to pass the GNG. Rupples (talk) 22:35, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep – enough references for WP:GNG now with updates. —Jonathan Bowen (talk) 16:54, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note – this is an award-winning project – information with references now included. —Jonathan Bowen (talk) 17:26, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    The article suggests the awards are for the building as a whole, not the theatre specifically. Rupples (talk) 17:46, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
