Article Cleanup

I originally came to this article for a possible copyright violation regarding portions of this article seemingly copied directly from an external site. However on further review, I believe the bigger problem is that most of this article reads like an an advertisement.

Specifically, the wording in the Campus section is very promotional and does not adhere to a neutral point of view, "[...] hosts a massive area with an area of more than 250 acres. The AICTE certified Clean & Green Campus, has State-of-the-art infrastructure instilled into every corner and maintains a cover of greenery and nattiness with 350+ varieties of Flowers, 150+ varieties of Trees & Plants around the campus [...]".

I took a step to attempt to fix the issues mentioned in the maintenance tags on the article, however, it was subsequently reverted without an edit summary. I'd like to discuss an edit that keeps a neutral point of view. I'm going to tag this article with {{Advert}} for the time being until this is resolved. Thanks.

@Tek022: Private universities in India seem to engage directly or indirectly in academic boosterism for example see: this section and this section of a different university; going by these one can come to an uninformed concluding picture. However, in reality, these universities, do no seem to fare well in National or state level athletics competitions. Therefore it is suspected that these universities provide monetary benefits to Olympic contingent, in return for such boosterism and advertising. It is therefore, my suggesion that all such boosterism should be removed. I usually follow University of Oxford as a guiding example. Looking forward.

Appreciate your response and extra context. I agree that both examples given do not add any encyclopedic value and should be removed from both articles.

I'm also on the fence about the Institutes and Recognition sections, these also don't add value and seem to be promotional in nature. In Good-rated articles, like MIT and your example of Oxford, they don't have a list just to have a list. I also cleaned up some issues I thought would be uncontroversial. Thanks again.

Disruptive Editors

@Navyison: You are engaged in disruptive editing of this article, despite my repeated warning and requests on your talk page. I am putting this here for the kind notice of other editors. Thank you,User4edits (talk) 08:09, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User4edits (talk) Thanks for your concern. I did not do any disruptive editing. Kindly open the university page https://www.cuchd.in/about/governance.php shows that Dr. N. T. Rao is the Current Vice Chancellor of Chandigarh University. Dr. H.B. Raghavendra was the Vice-chancellor earlier than him. It is an up-to-date information.

@Navyison: Thank you for accepting that LinkedIn is not a reliable source. The website has just been updated with Dr. N.T. Rao, few hours ago it was Dr. H.B. Raghavendra, and it is NT Rao now, therefore, you can make your edit to NT Rao citing reliable sources. Please read this. However, since you were earlier citing LinkedIn relentlessly, I called your disruptive editing. Please do not put the same message on different talk pages. Thanks, User4edits (talk) 10:24, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@User4edits: In that case, I mentioned You engaging in disruptive editing of this article, despite my repeated confirmation about correct information on your talk page, you are adding again false information. I am putting this here for the kind notice of other editors. Thank you,Navyison (talk) 08:20, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Navyison: It is a cute but meaningless effort in my opinion. I had cited reliable sources, you undid my edits citing LinkedIn WP:RSP and ignoring my warnings on your talk page, that's why I called your disruptive editing. Please also read WP:COI. Please do not put the same message on different talk pages. Thanks, User4edits (talk) 10:24, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
