What year was it founded? Casimir III who? What policies of the Polish government? (i.e., is this a copyright violation? the author is making statements that must come from somewhere.) In the medieval and early modern period (i.e., through 1650) 13-16 years was quite a normal age at which to be sent to university, so if the source the author is lifting from doesn't understand that, it needs to be explained. I cut it. MichaelTinkler

[edit] This page should be moved

Why is this page here? ATM (4 Dec 2004) Jagiellonian University redirects to University of Kraków which redirects here, ie to Jagiellonian University in Kraków. IMO the article should be moved back to Jagiellonian University, since:

  1. There are no other Jagiellonian Univerisites, AFAIK, so there would be no ambiguity;
  2. There are other universities in Kraków, so University of Kraków is ambiguous;
  3. Jagiellonian University is the name most commonly and officially used.

I can't move it myself, I'm afraid only an administrator can move it to an already existing page. [[User:Kpalion|– Kpalion (talk)]] 22:48, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Answering User talk:Rfl#Jagiellonian University: “Could you please move Jagiellonian University in Kraków to Jagiellonian University? See Talk:Jagiellonian University in Kraków for reasons. [[User:Kpalion|– Kpalion (talk)]] 22:49, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)” — Good point. I’ll move the page and update the redirects. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

I see that it has already been moved, but without the talk page, so I didn’t notice. I couldn’t be helpful this time, but please contact me in the future if there is any administrative job to be done here. Thanks. Rafał Pocztarski 11:15, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
No, actually, it has not been moved in the “Move this page”-sense but deleted and pasted into the new article. Please don’t move articles that way because the entire edit history is lost. There was over 50 edits in the last 3 years, a lot of people has done a lot of work, and now it looks like the article was written by only four people. I will fix this but next time please read: Wikipedia:How to rename (move) a page. Rafał Pocztarski 11:44, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
The article has been moved from Jagiellonian University in Kraków to Jagiellonian University and the edit history has been restored. Rafał Pocztarski 13:22, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
