As I recall adding the notability and a reliable third party reference tags a year ago, which then got removed as an editor compared its notability to the other clubs including the Oxford University Boat Club, which is in no doubt famous. He also insinuated that because this club is part of the University of Oxford, it should be notable and added references that is not good enough to save this article.

I am nominating this as I cannot find any forms of notability in this article as well any reliable third party coverages anywhere enough to save this article. Donnie Park (talk) 13:45, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Go-cart club. Sources provided in the article evidence existence, not notability. Web searches don't show substantial coverage from independent WP:RS sources. If such can be found, happy to look again. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 14:23, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete agree with others that this club is non-notable and that the references merely prove its existence. If it could be shown that a particularly notable motorsports personality learned their craft in OUMDC that would be different, but otherwise it's just a run-of-the-mill university club which merits mention in the university's article, but not a standalone article. --Bob Re-born (talk) 22:55, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
