[edit] The paper creation process

It seems to me the entire paragraph starting with "The paper is first assembled..." is pretty much superfluous. It is not asimilar to what any other newspaper is set up like and does not strike me as encyclopedic knowledge. I've not removed it for the moment, but if no one opposes within a few weeks (or whenever I remember) I probably will. --Elepsis 22:46, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree with your comment. If the paragraph stays it should be edited to be more accurate to the actual process at the least. --Entertainingfate 1:14, 6 Novemeber 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Title and format

It looks as though the definite article was an historic part of the paper's title, but that this is not true of the current paper. If so, shouldn't the article instead be moved to Technique (newspaper) or something similar? Also, is it really printed in tabloid format? I realize this refers strictly to dimensions and not content, but while I've not held a copy in my hands, it looks like neither a tabloid nor broadsheet, maybe a Berliner or something. Just curious, anyone care to break out a ruler? -Tobogganoggin ^talk 06:27, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

I've been thinking about moving the page, yes. And I'm fairly certain that it's considered a tabloid-size newspaper. The image on the article was captured from a PDF, and doesn't necessarily represent the dimensions of the actual paper. —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 06:56, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA pass

I have reviewed this article and believe it meets criteria at WP:WIAGA. I think the article is a well referenced and well written piece about a college newspaper. I also think considering it is a school newspaper and not a national publication the article is broad enough for GA class. However to improve especially if considering nominating to FAC then a few parts could do with expanding. Firstly the history section? Perhaps a list of some of the more contentious articles/issues of the past? Or perhaps a list of some (if any) famous contributors from the past, who have now gone on to other things? I have placed a few wikilinks I thought were missing as well. Anyway good job to all those who contributed to improve! LordHarris 10:45, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
