[edit] Fact Check Required

Few days back I saw that an anonymous IP added a lot of content directly lifted from the Indian Institutes of Technology article. However, very little modifications were made to use it for NITs. At many places, the person even forgot to replace IIT with NIT, which shows clear failure on his part to verify what he has written. Can anyone copyedit and run a fact check on his edits. I didn't revert the edit as many things are indeed common, but I think this article deserves to be uique (and not shadow of IIT article). -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 04:45, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

if one were to believe what was posted here, most faculty at the nits would be phd holders. the actual numbers are quite different. approximately 40% of nit faculty do not hold phd degree and some 5% have only a bachelors degree. as suggested in above paragraph, info cannot be just lifted from iit article without fact checking.

this article is pov.. instead of writing such a long winding article, a better idea would be to edit this article into a shorter, concise, npov one.--Keynes.john.maynard 21:07, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] An open request to NIT Junta

i really pity the guy whoever lifted the text from IIT article.I tried my best to change most of the content(most from my local IP).If u can not contribute something creative,genuine facts which are relevant to NIT, pl stay away.Kundojjala 17:34, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

yah absolutely true.This article should serve as information tool for those who do not know much about NITs and want to know more. i think the current version presents the true picture.Ankitjain.nitk 18:10, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
