Olivet Nazarene University

Greetings! Sorry the messages were a bit impersonal; it helps sometimes to use the templates instead of risking some heated debate "right off the bat". I understand where you're coming from, I really do, but repeated removal of the information, which definitely meets WP:RS if not WP:NPOV, constitutes WP:Vandalism. That being said, you're more than welcome to make sure that it is NPOV, as long you don't go around deleting well-sourced information willy-nilly, and make sure it still reflects the sources (not your own POV). Regardless of whether you and the ONU administration consider the issue "resolved" (a noteworthy take on it, considering the cited report) or impertinent in some way, it got major media coverage and is far more noteworthy than, say, a fire at NNU's gymnasium. If my assumption that you're fairly new to Wikipedia is correct, then take a look at WP:VERIFY, too, just to make sure you understand all the guidelines on this matter. And let me know if you need more direction. Cheers! --Aepoutre (talk) 21:53, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
