The article is unsourced and despite my best efforts, unsourceable. There are claims replicated from their homepage, such as first full members of RFU, that might provide for notability, but I am unable to verify this. All I can find is the occasional game blotter from the Sue Moloney Cup but nothing approaching sports or organizational notability. It's unclear whether the club still exists, so not a case of TOOSOON. Thoughts? Note: this is not Harlequins Women. This article is about an amateur team of the same name, color palette.

- Merge to Harlequins Women Lots of this is non-notable/irrelevant, can very easily be covered selectively in a section on the main Harlequins Women page. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 08:36, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting because since you've done the research, Star Mississippi, I'd like to know what you think of these proposals for merger.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 01:55, 10 September 2022 (UTC)- Thanks @Liz. I personally think Harlequins Women makes more sense than the broader club since what little I can find on the amateur club focused on it being for women. I'm not sure there's more than a sentence worth merging, but I don't see this as a scenario where it would be inappropriate. Any more than that is likely to be a DUE issue as well as uncited material. Star Mississippi 02:42, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
