Advert and primary source concerns

I placed the {{Advert}} and {{Primary sources}} on the article because of concerns. The most straight forward is the primary sources. Of the forty-five references, I see only four secondary ones: Arizona Daily Star, Hispanic News, Tuscon Citizen and NewsBank Inc.. All the rest are from the University of Arizona itself. This is likely the reason it reads like an advert, or in this case, a proxy for the college's brochures, "How to Apply", lists of amenities and programs, and other guides not meant for an encyclopedia. Before removing the templates, those concerns should be addressed. _signed,Willondon (talk) 23:14, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Willondon, the new edits were even worse. I had to undo all of the new edits by the new user for being gross copyright violations. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:18, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Articles about schools are sometimes misunderstood as "the school's web site" on Wikipedia. _signed,Willondon (talk) 23:21, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
