'Notability' template recently removed because this improv group is "multi-award winning" (no evidence of this at all) and they have "notable alumni" (these people became known well after they left Oxford University). I notice the article was originally written by someone purporting to be the founder of the Oxford Imps. I can find very little apart from the Oxford Mail article, and Oxford University student media, about the Oxford Imps. They clearly exist, but are not widely enough noticed or written about in journalistic sources to meet WP:GNG. Sionk (talk) 16:54, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

- Merge to Oxford University#Clubs and societies or keep.

- Merge to Oxford University#Clubs and societies. They do not have national coverage in WP:RSs. -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:28, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
- I am now in Australia too far away to be clear about this one, but I guess merge is the best solution. --Bduke (talk) 07:44, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
