Untitled

A list of Rectors exists from 1451 to 1600. It's in Dukan and Kirk's "The University of Glasgow 1451-1577" (Glasgow, 1977)

I don't know quite how to change it, but the John Orr listed at 1731-1733 is almost certainly not the John Orr which it links to 82.9.62.52 12:29, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Edward Snowden

The article currently states that he is in "self-imposed exile". Is that really an accurate description? Politics aside I'm not sure I would describe it that way. He did leave the US on fears of being arrested for whistle-blowing but is currently in Russia because the US State Department cancelled his passport while he was in transport to Ecuador. He can't return to the US without being arrested and he can't get to his initially intended final destination without a valid passport so he is stuck where he is. So should that be considered self-imposed? Jasenlee (talk) 16:44, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Get rid of the flags

The table violates MOS:FLAG. Many of the people would not have agreed with the flag assigned to them. jnestorius^(talk) 21:17, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
