Right now, we just have a list of dorms with no assertion of notability. But some of them might well be notable, like the houses at Oxford, or of architectural importance. Are they listed buildings? --John Nagle (talk) 00:05, 12 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
Southside Hall, built in the 50s, was listed but has since been demolished and replaced, the same (I think) with Linstead.
Beit is almost certainly listed. Many of the others are "just" converted posh houses, typical of the most expensive bits of South Kensington.
A category would be probably be more suitable than an attempt at an article on all the halls. ƕ (talk) 22:27, 20 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
FWIW, I'd say a "List of..." approach like this article is probably the least bad approach. If you try to cram them all into the main Imperial article it starts to unbalance that article, and while the likes of Beit will certainly justify an article there's not really enough to justify an article on each individual hall. The comparison with Oxbridge colleges doesn't work, but most "posh houses in South Ken" are Grade II listed. Le Deluge (talk) 02:14, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
