This Wikipedia entry on Keio University contains text which has been simply cut & pasted from the Keio University website. I removed it, but some Wikipedia nazi who is patrolling this site in search of "vandalism" entered the stolen text again... what's the point of copying content from the official Keio website here?

[edit] ad copy

The text appears to be taken straight from Keio University's advertizing/marketing literature. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.106.142.68 (talk) 23:25, 24 February 2007 (UTC).

The text says that Keio University is the oldest university in Japan and also in Asia. This is incorrect. The oldest university in Asia is Sungkyunkwan University that was founded in 1398 under the Joseon Dynasty's rule and is still in operation in Seoul. If in doubt, please visit Wikipedia's link on Sungkyunkwan University or http://eng.skku.edu —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chfhal (talk • contribs) 19:26, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
