"Notable" alumni

Per WP:LISTS it's best not to overdo lists in general articles like this, and in Wikipedia, a working definition of "notability" for alumni is that they should have Wikipedia articles of their own - see WP:NOTABILITY for guidelines on that. So I've removed the following until such time that they have articles of their own.

Jessica Au, designer for River Island^[1]
Kevin Carrigan, creative director of Calvin Klein^[1]
Briant Grant, the creative director at design firm Anisometric^[1]
Emma Hill, fashion designer^[1] (wrong Emma Hill in link)
Ringan Ledwidge, commercial director^[1]
Deborah Lloyd, Co-President and Creative Director at Kate Spade^[1]
James New, menswear designer for Vivienne Westwood^[1]
Press and Bastyan, fashion designers^[2]
Russell Pinch, furniture designer^[1]
Madeleine Press, fashion designer^[1]
Louise Rea, documentary filmmaker^[1]
Ines Sanchez Calatrava, product designer^[1]
Camilla Staerk, fashion designer^[1]
Sarah Sturgeon, fashion designer^[2]

Removed material on broadcasting

In editing the History section with more use of their own statements, I found a passage attributed in the text to personal knowledge. I was unable to work any of it in since no dates are provided, so here it is for possible future use if third-party references can be found. Yngvadottir (talk) 23:31, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The School of Television had been set up at the behest of the Independent Television Companies, by John Lisney^[1] to create a common training facility equivalent to facilities offered by the BBC. An old Victorian School had been converted into a facility comprising two Broadcast standard studios with additional network control and sound studios and classrooms. It was a small unit which had originally been attached to the College of Art for administrative purposes only. Most of the equipment was donated, largely by the BBC, including the cameras that had previously been used to record shows such as "The Muppets" and "Auf Wiedersehen Pet". These became available when the BBC took over the Elstree Studios and were preparing them for a new series "East Enders". In addition to degrees the College delivered degree short courses. The pedigree of earlier equipment is not known except that it was donated by the broadcasters of the time.

Large quantities of 5" VTR tapes were provided to the college by the BBC and ITV companies on condition all trace of their original content was deleted using a degaussing machine.

The author of this part of the entry, relating to the School of Television, is the Engineer (PJW Holland) responsible for maintenance of the facility from 1983 to 1987 succeeding from Richard Doyle-Davidson and ably assisted by Gerry England^[2] whose genius was a major factor. This is a first hand account of events which is provided purely for completeness.

a bit shit

For an arts college that has had so much talent the article is not very good (British understatement). No timeline of course development, no info on the pedagogical development or leading educators, the alumni might be famous, but what did they study there? When?? A list of when buildings moved or courses nearly not funded are probably not what anyone is interested in in an encyclopedia article. Where are the aesthetics? How about the philosophy of the place? Where are he connections with industry? Local community? other parts of academia or the art world? 91.154.169.156 (talk) 08:29, 4 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
