Talk:List of fictional Oxford colleges

Untitled
What is a fictional college? Please define for ignoramuses like me.

WHAT?! --Monsieur Mero 02:43, Mar 16, 2004 (UTC)

One could add "Baillie College" from the Britcom Yes, Minister/Yes, Prime Minister Should Cardinal College be on this list? "Cardinal College" is Christchurch College - it's what Christchurch used to be called.
 * Merge with Colleges of Oxford University. --Imran 02:46, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge. There are at least two other similar lists: List of fictional schools and List of fictional seats of learning. I think all of those should be merged into one. Andris 02:53, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge with List of fictional seats of learning, but not Colleges of Oxford University. &mdash; Timwi 03:01, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * I suggested merging with CoOU as that article already has a partial list of fictional colleges. --Imran 12:36, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Of course keep. Probably as it is, as I'd guess there must be thousands of fictional seats of learning. If not, keep as a redirect to List of fictional seats of learning. -- Oliver P. 04:26, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Why do we want to delete this?  RickK | Talk 04:40, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Hmm, this information is actually useful (I'm a fan of His Dark Materials, and I never knew that the colleges were fictional), but I'm not sure this is the best way to present the material. Maybe merge with Colleges at Oxford University or merge with the articles on the particular works of fiction that they come from?  - DropDeadGorgias (talk) 16:57, Mar 16, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep the content, at least... merging with the other fictional educational institutions sounds good. - Seth Ilys 18:07, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is one of the things I like about wikipedia, the little obscure lists that you find by browsing other pages. I wouldn't have been inclined to read these articles if they were part of an enourmous list of fictional institutions. It doesn't make much sense to merge them with the real parent institutions either, since they exist in separate universes. Lupin 10:38, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Absolutely keep. Perhaps link from Colleges of Oxford University. --Anjouli 15:22, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Fascinating, encyclopedic. Andrewa 17:37, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep as it is. Interesting and informative list. -- ChrisO 23:14, 20 Mar 2004 (UTC)
 * Why is St. Peter's listed as fictional?
 * As someone who went to St. Peter's: LOL Angengea (talk) 01:41, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep it as is. I'd argue for deleting the information on fictional colleges on the Colleges of Oxford University page. Angengea (talk) 01:41, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Surely "Baillie College" is just an abbreviation of "Balliol College", and thus should not be listed as fictional?

Lewis
Someone should expand the list by adding named in the 'Lewis' tv series. I just saw 'Southey College' where the place of filming was actually Worcester College. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jcummings (talk • contribs) 15:53, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
