Oriel College
Oriel College, located in Oriel Square, Oxford, is the fifth oldest of the constituent colleges of the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. Oriel has the distinction of being the oldest royal foundation in Oxford, and in recognition of this, the college has also been known as King's College and King's Hall. The original medieval foundation set up by Adam de Brome, under the patronage of Edward II, was called the House or Hall of the Blessed Mary at Oxford. The first design allowed for a Provost and ten Fellows, called 'scholars', and the College remained a small body of graduate Fellows until the 16th century, when it started to admit undergraduates. The College incorporates four medieval halls: Bedel Hall, St Mary Hall, St Martin Hall and Tackley's Inn, the last being the earliest property acquired by the college and the oldest standing medieval hall in Oxford.

Linking in warnings
Maybe linking the article name on a 'vandals' talk page is counter-productive. If they are a hit and run then it does leave a reminder of their favourite wheeze or bit of 'hilarity' behind the orange message bar. Likewise with returners, a first message of the day/week/month will reveal past endeavors.
