Speedy deletion of Oxford Medical Students' Society
A tag has been placed on Oxford Medical Students' Society requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. UKWikiGuy (talk) 16:22, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * If you know of other articles in Wikipedia about student clubs like this, place a deletion notice on them; student organizations, by and large, blatantly fail to meet our standards of notability. WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS is not a valid argument for the retention of an article, but rather a sad reflection of the number of articles that have never gotten the scrutiny they should have (I estimate that at least 25% of the articles in Wikipedia don't meet our standards). -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  17:28, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
