Re:ANU template

Hi there, thanks for letting me know. I'm writing a proposal on Talk:Australian National University at the moment that suggests merging several pages and/or creating new ones, hopefully that could result in restoring the template to the previous version? P.S. I'm not sure whether I'm meant to respond on my talk page or on yours, please feel free to move this if I'm not replying in the right place. Thanks! Doonagatha (talk) 11:12, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

That's ok, replying on either talkpage is ok. Some editors prefer using one to keep the discussion in one place. FYI using a colon indents your text. If you have reliable references then I can see some of the pages being created. An institution with the history of ANU probably has some notable history.

Great work on those university rankings

I'm pleased to see someone systematically checking these ranking claims. Many appear to be cited from the institution's own websites and don't seem to match what I saw when I did some lookups on the actual ranking sites. But I have a conflict of interest with a number of universities (or at least might be perceived to) so didn't think it was appropriate for me to update the Wikipedia articles. Kerry (talk) 22:46, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Completely agree, there's a lot of out of date and uncited statements regarding the universities. I'll admit I haven't been very thorough with checking these on every article because I was concentrating on the ranking boxes. I'll go back and have a look if I have the time.

UK University Endowment Opinion

Hi Aloneinthewild, I noticed that you have previously edited the List of UK universities by endowment page. I personally find that the page is too cluttered and contains non-notable information, and consequently would like to remove some of the data. I would really appreciate any thoughts you have on the matter, please reply to me on the Talk page of the UK University Endowment page.EmyRussell (talk) 23:41, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

on the talk page of RSPAS

With an earlier user name I wrote: This article is not about the successor school which is a much reduced in status and funding school - but about RSPAS - the title is incorrect some years ago - and really not much has changed - the Coral... version is a mere blip in comparison - I would have thought as much as there are changes - the earlier version is more correct as it was the one which was given a very bad body blow by the admin.

Please refer to the edit history on this. I changed the page citing a talk page consensus I found (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:University_of_York/Archive_1#Main_image) - the other editor has reverted my edits twice, with the comments 'nice try' and 'being WP:BOLD. I'm really struggling to understand why my changes are being reverted, and feel it's simply as I'm editing under an IP. I'd appreciate it if next time more thought was put into the situation, simply than just a warning template sent.

Hi Aloneinthewild. Some of the material you merged from IMRC to the above article appears to have been copied long ago by somebody else from the school's website.

Hi Aloneinthewild,

Would be grateful if you could assist in the inclusion of relevant ranking information which has recently been released (TEF rankings, please refer to LSBU Edit history). My edits are continually reverted by another editor on this page. I have disclosed a COI however I feel the information added is relevant. I am not 'cherry-picking' as claimed, only including the most recent information. Any help much appreciated LSBUStephMasters (talk) 08:13, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Centre for the Mind

Hello Aloneinthewild. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Centre for the Mind, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Having been founded by a notable person indicates importance/significance (WP:CCSI#CORP, WP:CCSI#ORG). Thank you. SoWhy 11:58, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for your interest in the University of Groningen. I undid some changes you have made becuase you provided no clear reference/reason. omermar 12:43, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi, the reason for that is all those people are unreferenced and nothing shows there notability. See WP:NLIST. Also, for one the reference is an academic paper, that appears promotional. I hope that is enough reason and you will revert back. Aloneinthewild (talk) 17:05, 29 July 2017 (UTC)
Hi, sorry for only now noticing your reply. Some of the people you deleted were actualy properly referenced and justified. omermar 13:39, 23 August 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Omermar (talkcontribs)

Hello. I just reviewed (per NPP) your recently re-created page and based on the information in a number of references I think this article should be considered sufficiently notable. Hopefully, there is no copy and pasting from the references. If there is please rewrite those passages in your own words. I don't have time to look for copyright violations at this time. Hopefully, I can come back to it. If the notability of this topic is challenged please let me know by pinging me here or on my talk page and then it can be discussed. It does not conventionally qualify under GNG, so some common sense needs to be applied (with some good reasoning). Ciao ---Steve Quinn (talk) 02:40, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

Mistake: "political", not "social" in the title of the LSE page

Sir,

You recently removed a comment I made about this London School of Economics page: [[1]]

This comment was probably not made according to the rules, sorry about that.

However, there is a real problem concerning this page, because its title is WRONG, and this has an impact on all Facebook pages referring to the London School of Economics (LSE).

The title of this page is: "London School of Economics and SOCIAL Science". This is wrong, because the correct name for the LSE is: "London School of Economics and POLITICAL Science".

The point is that Facebook uses this very page for all alumni, therefore displaying a wrong university name on our résumés! Please see here: https://www.google.fr/search?q=%22London+School+of+Economics+and+Social+Science%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b&gfe_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=sP7VWd2dF6SCwgLdi4rADQ

I actually tried to correct the title of this LSE page myself, however I could not do so because it is an automatic "redirect" page.

So could you please correct this "Social Science" page? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Champeaux (talkcontribs) 11:03, 18 October 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, but this is nothing to do with wikipedia. Go ask facebook to change their algorithms. Aloneinthewild (talk) 11:26, 21 October 2017 (UTC)


---> Sorry, but you did not read me: this WIKIPEDIA page contains a mistake: LSE is not "Social"!

— Preceding unsigned comment added by Champeaux (talkcontribs) 14:34, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Yes, I did read. I can't help you with this. Please try asking a question at the WP:Teahouse instead, someone there might help you. Aloneinthewild (talk) 11:30, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

Ways to improve List of Free University of Berlin people

Hi, I'm Boleyn. Aloneinthewild, thanks for creating List of Free University of Berlin people!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please add your sources. See WP:SOURCELIST: Lists, whether they are stand-alone lists (also called list articles) or embedded lists, are encyclopedic content just as paragraph-only articles or sections are. Therefore, all individual items on the list must follow Wikipedia's content policies: the core content policies of Verifiability (through good sources in the item's one or more references), No original research, and Neutral point of view, plus the other content policies as well. Although the format of a list might require less detail per topic, Wikipedia policies and procedures apply equally to both a list of similar things as well as to any related article to which an individual thing on the list might be linked.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Academic ranking of FAU Erlangen Nürnberg

Dear Sir or Madame,

Why have you deleted the ranking tables? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.225.21.55 (talk) 19:56, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

Quenn Mary

Hi.

Firstly I would like to thank you for keeping some of my revisions given they were marked as spam for some reason by another user. I understand your point about some affiliations are not relevant however the SEPnet affiliation recieves a lot of funding in grants and is a collaborative research group, with other universities in Physics. Given Queen Mary is a founding member, I feel this would be important to highlight given this affiliation isn't just subject specific but also provides an outreach and a summer placement programme to engage more people. This affiliation has also been put on the lists of other university pages e.g. Sussex. It would be also be important to display different subject affiliations as there are medicine specific ones already on the list.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Mary_University_of_London https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepnet

Kind Regards. Icevalley17 (talk) 02:53, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi, it's a bit of an unclear area really, my view is the affiliations should be university wide links rather than ones by individual departments or subjects. That way we prevent the list becoming too long (say if we listed every affiliation). That doesn't stop it being listed in the page somewhere. It might be worth starting a discussion on the article talk page to see what people think. My reasoning for keeping GMEC is its a large and well known association whereas Sepnet seemed department specific. Aloneinthewild (talk) 22:35, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

hi I don't know what is going on. I edited the sentence accordingly to Robminchins suggestion. I agree with what he says. Why the hell are you causing disruption and changing it to a non-factual sentence again??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.82.9.126 (talk) 13:53, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi, have you seen the discussion ongoing on the talk page, I suggest you get involved in that instead of editing the page. There we are forming a consensus, which at the moment is against including any statement. Please assume good faith, no need to insult me Aloneinthewild (talk) 12:55, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi apologies for the rudeness. It was just that I changed it to how it should be in accordance to robminchins suggestion and totally understood his point of view which was that it should be factual based not opinion and it was changed again. Please send the link to the talk page. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.82.9.126 (talk) 19:07, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

Radio Brunel

Hi there, will get to this ASAP, thank you. There's a whole Wikipedia section for Student Radio and many other university stations in the UK with their own page. As a station that's broadcast with minimal interruption since the 1970s I'll hopefully be able to find something, I'm sure there was a previous version of the page with a lot of references somewhere in the archive (from memory). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacquimunroe (talkcontribs) 20:30, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

I uploaded the official logo to Commons, so this one is no longer needed. --Stefan Weil (talk) 13:43, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
I'm not sure it should be on commons if its a copyrighted logo. Aloneinthewild (talk) 13:53, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
I'm sure it should, because it is public domain according to German law. In addition, I asked the responsible person at University of Mannheim. --Stefan Weil (talk) 13:59, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

vrije universiteit amsterdam

Hi, I saw there was some confusion among foreign students i know because of the german name "freie universitat berlin" and the dutch name "vrije universiteit amsterdam". Lots of students are from abroad, and choose to study in these two global cities, therefore in my opinion it would improve the page because a student could see the difference between the two institutions and make his choice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vustrijder (talkcontribs) 14:44, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: David Cowan (journalist)

Hello Aloneinthewild. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of David Cowan (journalist), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: working for a notable TV show is claim of significance (plus merge/redirect target per WP:ATD exists). Thank you. SOWHY 08:40, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Grant Russell

Hello Aloneinthewild. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Grant Russell, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: reporter on a notable news network is a claim of significance. Thank you. SOWHY 09:09, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from UTS-UC Hawks Handball Club, which you proposed for deletion. Played international and national at the highest level of handball. Instead, I have started a deletion discussion at Talk:UTS-UC Hawks Handball Club#Proposed deletion, which you may comment on. I have explained my reasons for doing so there. Thanks!--Malo95 (talk) 08:53, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
