WP:ROTM university event. The event is a real tradition, and has its own website: [1], but I can't find any independent coverage in RS, at least not in English. Article seems to have been unsourced since creation. If sources could be found in Swedish I would reconsider. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 21:15, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. I can't access the newspaper archive I typically use to go though Swedish sources right now, but I think a couple of the ones I've added are substantial enough (a couple of the others help add sources for individual poins, but are less important for notability). This is a major event in Uppsala, tens of thousands of spectators, with proper media coverage. /Julle (talk) 01:54, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep I'm similarly disadvantaged rn, but essentially in agreement with Julle's analysis. Open print media archives show sustained interest throughout the 80s, 90s and 2010s, most of it is likely brief mentions, but I'm convinced from what I've personally read and seen over the years that there is independent and in-depth coverage in substantial excess to what Julle has already provided.

- Keep per Julle and Draken Bowser, even just the sources Julle added in the article as it stands shows significant coverage from two independent sources. AlexandraAVX (talk) 19:30, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
