[edit] Engineering Higlights

Saw your note. It's common in Wikipedia that when an article starts getting long to split off sections to separate articles and link to them. I don't have a problem with the link to it.GCW50 14:13, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lehigh FA canidacy

Sorry I had to vote against, but there were several glaring problems I saw. Still, I think with some more work, this could definitely reach FA status. Some suggestions:

  • As I said at the canidacy page, waaaaaaaay too many red links. All those buildings probably aren't notable enough to get their own articles, but how about List of Lehigh University buildings or something similar, with paragraph-long capsules on each that you can link to from the main page?
  • A lot of sections are just too short. Some examples:

Baseball and softball. If they're important enough to merit their own subsection, there should be more information than the fact that they won the last league title. If not, they should be part of an "other teams" section at the end of the sports section.

Coeducation. It sticks out. Put in in the main academics section.

Faculty. Dry section. Does Lehigh have any celebrity scholars? McArthur Grant winners, Guggenheim fellows, etc? There's no real need to have a bulleted list; you can make it into a paragraph.

  • Trivia section. A lot of Wikipedia editors are real douchebags about trivia sections (there are discussions about it here and here. I don't think they're bad in and out of themselves, but you're not going to get your article to FA status with a trvia section that long. A lot of things there can be put in the main body of the article (Many buildings on the Packer campus... can go to "campus"; Shame of the 97... can go to "spirit and traditions").

Anyway, hope this helps and doesn't come across as too condescending. Again, you've got a good article, but it can be a lot better. I'll be glad to try and help you some more if you want. Stilgar135 16:30, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Wyoming Seminary.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Wyoming Seminary.gif. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Chowbok ☠ 02:17, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for the Barn Star. I'm not sure what it means, but obviously Lehigh is love of both of ours.

Chuck B, the author of "Lehigh Football Nation" suggested using the term the "The Rivalry" last year when we found that "Harvard-Yale" had a lock on "The Game". It's paid off; within a week of the new article on Wikipedia, a Lafayette grad used our account as the basis of a local newspaper story in Georgia. Thus we now have use of "The Rivalry" in a print source to further lock it in.

My only regret was having to listen to my brother (Lafayette '76) brag at Thanksgiving again this year. ;-)

[edit] Sorry

I'm new at this, didn't realize.
