Destroy Keble Society

KJP1, I see you have removed the description of the St John's Destroy Keble Society. I think that it should be mentioned in the article, so I am starting a discussion to see if any other editors agree. It is referred to by Oxford Today [1] and a Keble College fundraising report [2] as well as Cherwell and the Oxford Student. I think "C'est magnifique mais ce n'est pas la gare" is less credible as it is also linked to the Law Courts (and I believe Balliol).TSventon (talk) 18:23, 27 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

TSventon - No problem at all with its inclusion, provided that:
  • the text makes clear it is a myth/joke, as it certainly is. Even the weak source that was there, an anonymous student blog, described it as "the mythical story of the Nick-A-Brick Society" (my bold);
  • it is properly sourced. Your sources mention the "Society", though the second makes no mention at all of what the "Destroy Keble Society" does. Both, I strongly suspect, are recycling the same urban myth. KJP1 (talk) 20:10, 27 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
KJP1, thanks for your suggestions. I have added a referenced sentence about Destroy Keble Society (DKS).
  • I haven't said DKS was mythical, as I haven't found a reliable source for that. The name of the Jack Nory column of the Oxford Student suggests that it is fiction and it doesn't use the name DKS, which both suggest that it is not a reliable source about DKS.
  • I think that Oxford Today is a reliable source for the existence of a DKS with the aim of removing the college brick by brick. Cherwell [3] and the above Keble report also mention the existence of DKS. Some of the unreferenced detail was probably mythical, but I have omitted it.TSventon (talk) 09:29, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
