Oxford Cycle Workshop

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Prodded by with explanation "I'm not finding any indication of notability outside the Oxford area. The sources cited in the article are either not independent (the OCW's website or blog), or are entirely Oxford-based. On a search, I only found Oxford sources, which per WP:AUD is insufficient. The one national-level source I found mentioning OCW is this Telegraph article, which is about another organization entirely. There's just not enough here to substantiate a whole standalone article." Removed without explanation. Reywas92Talk 06:55, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep There's now a successor organisation, Broken Spoke, which has attracted national coverage. The worst case would be merger under a broader title such as Bicycle cooperative or Cycling in Oxford per our policies WP:ATD and WP:PRESERVE. Andrew D. (talk) 09:02, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Non-notable even if it does still exist, it's nothing but a local store that sells and educates about bikes like the thousands of such around the world; Bicycle cooperative mentions 300+ in one group in the US. One of a series of lifestyle pieces about a traffic education project, a pig-growing collective, and a clothing exchange does not confer notability, and our policies do not grant indefinite inclusion of WP:EVERYTHING that anyone (like the WP:SPA that wrote this) wants to promote about their organization. Nothing more than a sentence would belong in either of those articles but that's welcome. Reywas92Talk 17:31, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete per my original PROD rationale, but in the interest of fairness I should point out that there actually was a comment by on the article's talk page. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 14:56, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
