MIT "ranking and reputation"You're correct in what you say. But academic boosterism is a perpetual problem with Wikipedia. The peacock feathers grow, and grow, and grow, and there is a continual need to prune them. In the past it was a problem with Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, too, by the way. One reason for having a section on "Ranking and Reputation" is that if there is such a section, the boosters are usually willing to at least keep all the rankingcruft in that section. If there isn't, I think you will find that rankingcruft tends to make its way into the lead paragraph. Or, even worse, statements like "[XYZ university] is generally regarded as among the most prestigious in the world." I hope your edit remains stable. However, if I see rankings in the lead section I intend to re-create a "ranking and reputation section" again. I try to put sections like that around third or fourth down, but people keep moving them up...

That page is a subpage for History of unmanned aerial vehicles which is undergoing a massive rewrite and reorganization to do just what you suggested. The page you left your note on will eventually be eliminated, with all the model-specific info being moved to model-specific pages, and the general history content moved back over to the main page. If you still want to help, you are invited to join the fun...more info, to-do and done lists are on the talk page for History of unmanned aerial vehicles Akradecki 16:39, 3 August 2006 (UTC) License tagging for Image:Stratton Student Center.JPGThanks for uploading Image:Stratton Student Center.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images. For more information on using images, see the following pages: This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 16:10, 12 December 2006 (UTC) User name?Could you share the explanation of your username?

HeyDear Madcoverboy, After seeing the excellent work that you've been doing on the MIT page, I just wanted to say hello. I nominated the Ohio Wesleyan University page in the FAC process a few days ago and it you think that my experience with the page might be helpful in any way, do let me know. I'd love to help out if I can. LaSaltarella 23:15, 7 March 2007 (UTC) Rail TransportJust a note to let you know that when you reverted some vandalism to Rail Transport, you didn't revert it completely: a lot of stuff that the vandal had omitted was left out after you removed the inappropriate text. I've put it back now, and also added a standard warning to the user's page who vandalised the article. Best wishes. DDStretch (talk) 20:36, 11 March 2007 (UTC) Thank You!
Belarus FACI added about three paragraphs about indepdence all by itself, I hope that is not too much. I tried to see what POV issues in the culture article are, but I think I caught them all. The bit about the festivals and parades were mentioned by the Belarusian Embassy, so I wanted to make some mention. I also revamped the sections on the food, drink, music and dress. I hope you like it. :) User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 06:43, 22 March 2007 (UTC) WikiProject History of Science newsletter : Issue I - March 2007The inaugural March 2007 issue of the WikiProject History of Science newsletter has been published.

Yours in discourse--ragesoss 06:33, 5 May 2007 (UTC) 6000 annually?In this edit you changed a statement that MIT has about 6000 graduate students to one that MIT enrolls about 6000 graduate students ANNUALLY. If you consider that average time spent getting a PhD must be at least three years, that would imply there are more than 18000 graduate students. That seems WAY too high (especially since the three-year average seems like an underestimate, so the figure would probably be even higher). Do you have any source for that figure? Previously it said MIT has about 6000 graduate students, which seems plausible, and someone has recently changed it back to that. Michael Hardy 03:07, 7 May 2007 (UTC) Peer review questionIn your peer review of Georgia Institute of Technology, you said that "Citations are a little bit lacking in many areas (but good use of existing citation templates)" ... would you mind going through the article and using {{fact}} in areas that need it? I've just written an alumni section, and I've got the material to reference it out the wazoo, I'm just not sure how deeply I need to cite the article. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 06:32, 21 May 2007 (UTC) Highly selectiveI saw that you removed the phrase "highly selective" from the Middlebury College article. I tend to agree now that it does not have a place in the lead, at least in the first sentence, but I think we should then be consistent and remove it from other colleges' articles, like Amherst College and Williams College.

Review of Confederate government of KentuckyThank you for your comments on my FA nomination of Confederate government of Kentucky. I have responded to the comments as best I can. I have also asked editors from related WikiProjects to see if they can address your concerns. I hope you will eventually consider supporting this nomination. I would also like more information on how you think the lead needs to be reworked. Admittedly, I wrote most of the prose and may be too close to it to see the errors, so specifics are necessary. Thanks. Acdixon 18:06, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
Constitution of Belarus FACI think I found everything that you are looking for; I still do not know who were the major players in making the document happen, other than the guy who signed it into law. I don't know what were the exact issues that had to be debated for 3 years, but the dissolving of the Supreme Soviet and the blocking of reforms by them was an issue. I added more into the influences that I could find, but most government sources stated that they wanted to introduce dying out Belarusian traditions and base the document from others that withstood time, like the US Constitution. The Belarus Constitution didn't influence others yet. I have not seen much academic or judicial work mentioning about the amendments themselves, since most of the talk about the document were the changes made in 1996 and 2004.

You are making a mistake to start with MIT. the individual departments of the most famous universities probably have enough famous faculty and graduate,s and references to the departments, to be individually notable. I think such articles should be severely restricted, but removing the articles on the very best departments in one of the worlds best university universities in their subject is not a reasonable way to go about restricting them. Perhaps it might be good to centralize this discussion at one place, and since you are proposing the merges, this seems a practical one. DGG (talk) 05:15, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your continued support of WikiProject Universities! -- Noetic Sage 19:39, 8 October 2007 (UTC) FL Main page proposalYou either nominated a WP:FLC or closed such a nomination this year. As such, you are the type of editor whose opinion I am soliciting. We now have over 400 featured lists and seem to be promoting in excess of 30 per month of late (41 in August and 42 in September). When Today's featured article (TFA) started (2004-02-22), they only had about 200 featured articles and were barely promoting 20 new ones per month. I think the quality of featured lists is at least as good as the quality of featured articles was when they started appearing on the main page. Thus, I am ready to open debate on a proposal to institute a List of the Day on the main page with nominations starting November 1 2007, voting starting December 1 2007 and main page appearances starting January 1 2008. For brevity, the proposal page does not discuss the details of eventual main page content, but since the work has already been done, you should consider this proposal assuming the eventual main page will resemble either an excerpted list format or an abbreviated text format. The proposal page does not debate whether starting with weekly list main page entries would be better than daily entries. However, I suspect persons in favor of weekly lists are really voicing opinions against lists on the main page since neither TFA nor Picture of the day started as weekly endeavors, to the best of my knowledge. Right now debate seems to be among support for the current selective democratic/consensus based proposal, a selective dictatorial approach like that used at WP:TFA or a non-selective first in line/calendar approach like that used at WP:POTD. See the List of the Day proposal and comment at WP:LOTDP and its talk page.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 18:47, 15 October 2007 (UTC) The WikiProject Universities Newsletter: Issue II (October 2007)The October 2007 issue of the WikiProject Universities newsletter has been published.

Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages.

My likely responses:
University rankingsI am standardizing rankings descriptions on (American) university pages. I prefer that university pages not include rankings as all as rankings are POV. Too often some rankings in which a university is well-represented are chosen over others where the university is not in the Top-n. In other cases, universities allude to previously high standing rankings even if they are no longer in high standing. Othertimes, rankings are recontextualized to portray the school better (50th in the nation, but 3rd among Colleges west of the Mississippi, founded in 1859, and with 7 syllables in the title). If an article does have a separate section for rankings, I am listing the university's standings in the all major rankings (USNews, Shanghai Jiao Tong, Times Higher Education, Newsweek Global 100, Washington Monthly, and Center for Measuring University Performance) and deleting uncited boostercruft ("...is regarded/considered/recognized as the best...") to make it as NPOV, verifiable, and least COI as possible. This is my template:
MIT NobelI'm a student at MIT; I actually went to the MIT news office, human resource office, and alumni association last week, asking them to update the website to include (at least) the visiting scholars/professors at MIT. However, MIT refused to do so. Other colleges (like Harvard, Columbia, and Cambridge) all include visiting scholars/professors and also those part-time students in their total Nobel count. I think MIT deserves the same attention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MITBeaverRocks (talk • contribs) 07:33, 30 November 2007 (UTC) The WikiProject Universities Newsletter: Issue III (November 2007)The November 2007 issue of the WikiProject Universities newsletter has been published.

It is a mixed bag in terms of how responsive they are. After my experience this quarter I have some ideas about how to get better compliance with formats. The difficulty is that most of them have no mark-up language experience whatsoever, and the topic is new to them, so for some, proper formatting is their last priority. My plan is to offer extra credit to those who can learn the proper formatting of particular aspects, and then encourage them to clean up as many of the articles in our project as possible.

Yes, it's that time again. New articles have been added. I finished this process early because I'll be running around packing and sorting out Friday's weather patterns so I can get back to Florida in time. Just in case things don't go well, at least I don't sabotage the COTF program. Anyways, the three new articles will start on Friday and you may edit the three technically still in COTF (although I've placed the collaboration-past tags already) or you may start editing early. Here's something I want to try, start treating it as a peer review. Start by skimming through the article, making sure the article fits our article guidelines. Then review for content: any copyvio, notability issues, reference listings, following the Manual of Style. And here's something even more radical. See if you can attract authors currently maintaining the different COTF articles to join our WikiProject and better yet, our COTF project. I found when I started this program, jumping ships and editing other universities' articles was a big leap, but it's been very fun so far. I'd like to see more people actively participating. Let's start off the new year the right way. I want to see those articles in GAR and FAN soon. I was sad we didn't have enough people working on the Harvard article to push it to FA or GA.

Sorry about the late notice. My 21st birthday was on Wednesday and I was pretty much sick all day Thursday, so I wasn't able to get a chance to do this. Anyways, three new articles. Note: I didn't place the Portal on the ENT because I felt that the portal was more like a collection of articles rather than an actual article focused on the university. This semi-goes against our original goals of the COTF in which university articles would get attention first before handling the subarticles. (Portal is more like a collection of articles). Anyways, if you believe it should be back on the ENT, I'll make sure it'll be Round 6's ENT, so if you do feel it should, talk on the COTF talk page. Oh yeah, I hope the coding works. I'm using WP:AWB to do signpost delivery by "Append Text"...hoping that it'll work. If this comes out horribly, please let me know if I haven't already fixed the error(s).
