Hi! I will add my comments over the next few days. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 05:38, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

one of the best universities in Latin America This might challenge the NPOV unless the details in the 4th para (about rankings and all) follow closely after. I would recommend a merger.
"Portuguese" need not be in bold.
What does "48%" indicate? How new is the figure?
Convert template for 12 km.
There are several duplicate links in the article. You can fix them yourself by using this tool.

Foundation

took place in May 20 "on" not "in"
Convert 110 ha and 12 km

Growth and Crisis

Why caps for Crisis in the title?
Source for para 1?

1990 onwards

This is further aggravated by the harsh economic depression that Brazil faces in 2015 and 2016 The tense appears somewhat improper to me, how about "has been furher aggravated" and "has been facing"?

Campus

12 km from the center of Campinas Repetition of fact
center in a radial fashion "radial" is a dablink
Valley, library, restaurant, farmland, logo, surgery, birth seem too common to be wikilinked
Source for the last para of Design?
Convert 350 ha
Convert 50 km (in Limeria, and Piracicaba)
amongst the best state high school in the country "schools" (Cotuca and Cotil)
You don't provide the full names of COTUCA and COTIL here but later on. It should be stated here and perhaps the section should be renamed COTUCA and COTIL.

Organization and administration

In general terms, schools are usually focused...span several different institutes and schools. Source?
Zeferino Vaz, who drove the installation and establishment of the university We know that already.
which conduct research and outreach on topics ranging from dance (such as LUME) to computing and education (such as NIED). Place ref. 47 at the end of this part if it supports this as well.

Academics

Source for first para?
being its own main area Meaning?

Student life

Source for Although most are male or female only, mixed-gender houses are also common?
a price that hasn't been updated "has not"
Many common terms are linked.
Convert templates needed in the second subsection
Source for The university has a sports center...which houses also a convention center?

Varginha incident

where the government would run secret projects in an underground area Could this be clearer?

This should be it. Putting this nomination on hold for 7 days. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 03:32, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review @Sainsf:, I'll do the edit and let you know! Best, UCaetano (talk) 08:58, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Sainsf:, just finished making the changes. Removed or reworded the unsourced sections, and added a few extra sources. LMK what you think. Thanks! UCaetano (talk) 11:24, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@UCaetano: My apologies for responding to this after a week. Most issues have been resolved, except a few that I have now marked in bold. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 07:07, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Sainsf:, looks like I got all of it now. Thanks! UCaetano (talk) 14:22, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@UCaetano: You got most, just a step more. Please remove the links to too common terms in "Campus" (before the section "Synchrotron lab"). Sainsf (talk · contribs) 14:26, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Sainsf: Good enough now? I don't mind removing more, but left some that detail different levels of care, food engineering, chemical engineering and a few others which don't seem too common IMHO. Also made a few smaller edits (units, etc.). Thanks a lot for the help! UCaetano (talk) 15:11, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for fixing all the issues and your good edits.I am happy to promote this. Cheers, Sainsf (talk · contribs) 15:25, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
