John Jay Article

[edit]

Hey, I don't know how to leave a signature so sorry about that but saw your edit. Those were college majors (have provided a link to the correct source), I don't know if it's against WP policy to list the majors the college offers (if it does, please feel free to let me know or undo it and I apologize) but wanted to give you the heads up. Anyway, it is dedicated to Criminal Justice, hence the college's name (John Jay College of Criminal Justice). Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.41.108.33 (talk • contribs) 22:16, November 4, 2021 (UTC)

Waldorf University

[edit]

I notice you have been reverting IPs who are trying to change the nonprofit status of Waldorf University. The recent occurrences might be because the university announced that the Dept. of Ed. approved their change in status. Maybe this isn't on IPEDS yet b/c of the new administration and their cuts @ the department? wizzito | say hello! 23:17, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's very possible. I don't know how often IPEDS or College Navigator's view of IPEDS data is updated when the Department of Education is fully staffed much less how often it's being updated now or if it's being maintained at all. ElKevbo (talk) 22:15, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

University of Kansas notable alumni section

[edit]

I created the original image gallery of notable alumni on this page, and I maintain it is appropriate to have (Harvard's page has one, I figure it's good enough for KU). However, when I created it, it was tastefully and specifically limited to two rows of the most nationally- and internationally-notable/famous alumni and faculty of the university with intentionally brief captions.

I did not realize someone else had come along and added way more entries while revising my captions and adding others that are far too wordy. I agree there should not be a massive gallery, but there should be one. I assume we agree here. I unintentionally reverted to a bad version of the gallery and accidentally published before I could type in my edit explanation - apologies! I hope this clears up my position.

I don't inherently object to a small gallery of carefully selected images that broadly represent the range of alumni associated with the university. My objections are to (a) excessively large galleries and (b) galleries with no apparent selection criteria. 01:30, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Dr. Angela C. Meyers(Modern Polymathy studies)

[edit]

Hello ElKevbo,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Dr. Angela C. Meyers(Modern Polymathy studies) for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.

If you don't want Dr. Angela C. Meyers(Modern Polymathy studies) to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Georgia Tech Pop Culture Section

[edit]

I agree with your suggestion to delete the list of movie appearances added to the Georgia Tech article by an unregistered editor. Are you working on rewriting that section, or know any sources that might help in rewriting it to be less promotional? If not, it seems appropriate to simply delete the section. Is a wider consensus required for that? ElToAn123 (talk) 23:01, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am not planning to rewrite that section and do not personally know of any helpful sources. You are welcome to edit the article as you believe is appropriate and helpful. ElKevbo (talk) 23:12, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lawrence Technological University

[edit]

My edit regarding the antisemitic incident on campus and the school's response was removed. I agree with the general feedback that "a dispute between college roommates doesn't typically rise to the level of inclusion in an encyclopedia article..." However, this was not a routine dispute, and the focus of the edit was on the school's failed response.

If this had been a typical incident, the school likely would not have issued a formal press release, let alone distributed it widely through a wire service. The fact that the school chose to publicly acknowledge the incident and release an official statement via a third-party distribution platform strongly suggests that even the school considered the matter significant and unusual.

Additionally, I disagree with characterizing an antisemitic incident that led to a criminal trial and conviction as merely a "dispute between students," even if those students were roommates. Omitting the school’s failed response to such an incident (especially one it addressed publicly) risks undermining the neutrality and completeness of the article.
