Needs Work

I'm gonna add a needs work thing to this page. The page hasn't changed in a year, but maybe I can work on it a bit. I'll do a bit of translating from the Portuguese side, and see if I can't fix the amount of zeros in that 300 spot. Please someone who knows anything about this place, help!

Upon inspection on the portuguese one, I discovered that it too had very little info, less than this one actually, but it did have a list of all the schools and stuff, so I'll add those eventually. Added some pics.

Name

According to the opening words of the article, the institution is actually Mackenzie Presbyterian University. The name of the article should be changed. J S Ayer 03:54, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed.--SarekOfVulcan 04:13, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! J S Ayer 04:57, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Other Needs

The statement that in 130 years the university has accumulated 300 alumni seems to be in need of some zeroes.

I don't read Portuguese, but the "brief history" section of the university's website seems to be a placeholder. Can someone perhaps find out when the school became a university? J S Ayer 05:01, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sentences seem to be plagiarized from the school's press releases, e.g., The university is regarded nationally and internationally as a center of excellence having graduated numerous important names in Brazilian history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.81.2.180 (talk) 15:41, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
