El Bandito's
Probable hoax, ungooglable touch rugby team in ungoogleable league. Looks like a student joke -- Aim Here 01:19, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

In summation there is a fine line between what teams can be registered on wikipedia. Professional teams and amateur teams that exist are both approapriate for submission in my educated perspective. User:Mogsheen Jadwat
 * Keep . I am a Mass Communications and Marketing Lecturer at the Nelson Polytechnic . The internet was set as a democratic, area of free speech . These participants are engaging in the aforementioned activity , however I believe some of the material to be unapproapriate . With some deletion of material in a few places , I believe the article has to be kept on wikipedia.

 * Speedy delete as club with no assertion of notability. Playing social touch football is not an assertion of notability.
 * Delete per Capitalistroadster. -- JLaTondre 01:37, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

 * editor's 17th edit on WP. 11 of the previous 16 have been to El Bandito's. Grutness...wha? 


 * Delete, I can't find anything to verify its existence, and Wikipedia is not a repository of things made in school one day. Tito xd (?!? - help us) 03:38, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

There is a university of Oxford in England however
 * Delete. This appears to be a social touch club, and that isn't sufficient to warrant an encyclopedia article.-gadfium 04:25, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - Doesn't meet encyclopedic standards. Cyde Weys  04:35, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable, unverifyable, meatpuppet supported. --InShaneee 04:43, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Unencyclopædic vanity publishing; unverifiable through Google. There must be better places than WP within which this information can be placed - the club's own website, for example? This information can form the basis of such as website, if required.   (aeropagitica)   07:21, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete hoax or unverifiable, per Avalon. ergot 16:46, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Claim to fame is participation in non-notable sports league. No references. Almost certain vanity.  Cdcon   18:55, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. As a fan of El Banditos I am highly offended by any calls to delete. Caleby 13:42, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as unverifiable. In regards to a previous comment, I highly doubt that the University of Oxford has anything to do with this, and the town of Oxford, New Zealand has less than 2,000 citizens - doesn't seem like a place for a university. -- Mithent 01:32, 1 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. Not notable. zafiroblue05 | Talk 02:26, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete the article, delete the sockpuppets, and tell one of them that British universities like Oxford don't have scholarships for touch rugby (and there is no university at Oxford, NZ - a couple of milk bars and a pub and that's about it). Sheesh. Grutness...wha?  23:53, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep there is no reference to the University of Oxford on the website . The side is from Christchurch, New Zealand Vertigo
 * Delete, totally unencyclopaedic. I may have run into the team while refereeing tag rugby, though. Stifle 23:03, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Pure vanity. Eivind 02:28, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
