Why are people removing Limn Thomas? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.168.241.151 (talk) 18:50, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Telling the truth is not vandalism. All claims that I have made are based on archival research and personal experience. I even provided photographic evidence. -Paul Simonton —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulsimonton (talk • contribs) 17:04, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

IT HAS NO PLACE ON WIKIPEDIA..IT IS ENTIRELY IRRELEVANT YOU FUCKING DOUCHE BAG

VANDALISM BY PAULSIMONTON.... Im trying to have him removed. He continues to vandalize this page —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.168.198.52 (talk) 15:38, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

The last 2 edits were in poor choice. Someone should change them.

We arent going to use the wikiuniversity guidelines, no reasonable person cares to read about the colleges organization and administration. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.168.199.37 (talk) 14:59, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

MO REASON TO ADD GRADUATE SCHOOLS TO THE INFORMATION>>>HAS NO SIGNIFICANCE —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.168.203.227 (talk) 19:04, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

The page is looking much better

Changed around the page so that history and campus were first. Makes more sense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.188.38.199 (talk) 19:51, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

THOMAS your edits have been exceptionally shitty. This page went from being well written and un biased to lame and uninformative...what is wrong with you? stick to your POS Clark page it needs a lot of work —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.98.104.116 (talk) 06:42, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

I think there should be an athletics section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.188.44.237 (talk) 15:37, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Look at this page from a year ago, all of the citations were there, when edits were made citations were removed so revert it back to then and your problems will be solved.

Admission

Talk about junking up the page...who ever has done these edits has made this look amatuerish.

Admission to Manhattanville is considered "difficult"?? Is this a joke? The only requirement for acceptance to Mville is a pulse. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the school... but does anyone really get rejected? I think the other %50 must have forgotten to sign their name on the application. Also, I would like to see more written about Berman. Cheers.

For you it may seem like everyone who applies to this school gets in, but this is simply not true. The college board states that 53% of applicants are accepted which is in the same general range as Boston University, and the University of Connecticut (Storrs) among others. And more difficult to get into than All the UMASSs, University of New Hampshire, University of Vermont, URI and many others. Manhattanville accepts students with an aim to diversify the student body, and the admissions counsel values the concept of "character development" that is why GPA, SATs and other conventional statistics aren't as valuable at M'ville.

Please keep Wikipedia "plug free". Let the facts speak for themselves. (eg. "Manhattanville has undergone a renaissance which has gained the college much acclaim," or "a wide-ranging interest in the most humane manifestations of the human spirit." ??!!)

The college has undergone a renaissance...check the facts..Look at the school 10 years ago as compared to today? Who are you? Some jealous Iona or Concordia or Pace piece of shit? You seem like you are the one who hasnt checked the facts nice try though. Im putting this stuff back up now.

Alumni

Dont link names that dont have links. thanks.

Most of the notable alumni are hardly notable. Also, where is the proof that Maria Shriver ever attended the school? Her Wikipedia article didn't state such.--Thomas.macmillan 13:40, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

OTHER SCHOOLS LIST ALUMNI THAT ATTENDED FOR 2 Years....just like schriver did..she is considered an alum that is why she will remain...also there is no reason to put links on names that dont have entries....you want to elimate as much red as possible not add more.

If this is true, then they are incorrect. There should be another list labeled "attendees" that distinctly separates itself from alumnus. Since the term translates from Latin to mean "graduate," this just does not make any sense.Rpgman456 01:07, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Show a link that with Maria Shriver and Manhattanville. Her Wikipedia entry does not even say she went to Manhattanville. As for the redlink names, I have not found a clearly rule against using links that are red as long as they are relevant. see What should be linked

WHY ARE YOU SO Intent on linking entries that dont have articles?????? That is illogical? are you illogical? if you have a good rationale for it than ill consider...but i really dont see why you would link it to nothing and leave red links up? Futhermore....... the linkpage you listed above clearly states "Subsidiary topics that result in REDLINKS (links that go nowhere), such as the titles of book chapters and the songs on albums, unless you're prepared to promptly turn those links into real ones yourself by writing the articles. It's usually better to resist linking these items until you get around to writing an article on each one."

I was referring to "Major connections with the subject of another article that will help readers to understand the current article more fully (see the example below). This can include people, events and topics that already have an article or that clearly deserve one, as long as the link is relevant to the article in question." Are the alumni of Manhattanville helpful to understanding the school? If they are truly relavent, then they should be red-linked and someone will eventually build articles out of them.

Once the Redlinks have definitions then we will link them...until then it doesnt make sense.

Either they are notable enough to be redlinked or shouldn't even be mentioned because of the page.

Thomas Im going to block you for your excessive reverts.

Either red-link them, create articles for them or delete them. It doesn't help anyone to have unlinked names. Either they are notable or not. If they are, they should either be red-linked or create articles. If they aren't notable, then they should be deleted--Thomas.macmillan 00:52, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

alright I think its much better to redlink them than to not list them...they are important people even if they dont have wiki. articles...so redlink them tom...you are a hyena btw there is no reason for you to be such a pain in the ass.

For a well written article, this piece is horribly under-cited. If someone actually took the time to write this, and not steal text from another website, I would have to believe they used a magnitude of sources. Why not cite them? Rpgman456 00:49, 1 April 2007 (UTC)- Much of this was done by a student at Mville who knew this info first hand so its difficult to site.

Piux X

Who took out Pius X? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.168.250.152 (talk) 19:51, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

I have no idea what you're talking about. Powers ^T 15:27, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

I added a reference and the correct name of the Liturgical Music School, and made corrections about the Lady Chapel and academic requiremnts for music (I'm on the music faculty). The page is looking better. 151.202.39.32 (talk) 01:37, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Historical connection to the Convent of the Sacred Heart in NYC?

See Talk:Convent of the Sacred Heart (New York City)#History of the Convent in NYC, especially the paragraph about the Manhattanville campus location as shown on maps from 1853 to 1953. Ninel (talk) 22:49, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

What is RSCJ, it needs to link to something. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 22:32, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

This page has gotten progressively worse since 2006. Why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:8D:503:B200:FC8F:5A04:59FB:2AA0 (talk) 18:07, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
