[edit] Added detail re Mardons of Mardon Hall
I was Social Sec at Mardon back in the mid 90's. Very pleased to see this much loved place on Wikipedia! The Mardons now live in France so far as I can remember.Iamlondon 18:50, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Holland Hall
The article Holland Hall has been listed as an article for deletion. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Holland Hall. The discussion is moving towards merging it into University of Exeter. There seems to be no consideration of the fact that there are pages for five other Halls at Exeter and that University of Exeter Halls of Residence exists. The page was badly written and obvious vanity from a Holland Hall resident. I have have had an attempt to make it better. If you want to keep this article, and perhaps all the others on Halls at Exeter (and indeed the many articles on Halls elsewhere) go to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Holland Hall and vote to keep it. Give reasons. Votes without reasons are often ignored. I have done what I can, but I have no real interest in Exeter University. I just have an interest in articles on Halls and Colleges and came across this deletion notice by chance. --Bduke 21:31, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ralph Miller and Joseph Inniss
Duryard currently houses Ralph Miller and Joseph Inniss, who present their popular Sunday night "Ralph and Joe Radio Show" on the student station XpressionFM 8-10pm.
What?
I beleive 'popular' is not an apt word to use here. At one point the listen online feature recorded at total of three listeners. This I believe contradicts Wikipedia's quality standards.
I believe 'at one point' is not an apt word. This claim is not backed up and a citation of this one point is required. This survey could only have been made on an occasion when the Ralph and Joe show wasn't on air and the automation system was on instead, as occured on 21/05/06 and 28/05/06. Also could the person making the question above please inform wikipedia where they found this online feature.
Nb. A shows listeners cannot be assessed on the noting of listeners at one instance in time. The station is also available on FM and this was not factored. This is an inaccurate representation of the listenership.
[edit] Superior Duryard Mews
Superior Duryard Mews. This is a question of subjectivity and also contradicts Wikipedia's quality assurance standards.
-Rooms in the Duryard Mews are bigger than rooms in the other houses, and the building has better equipped and larger kitchens, along with a better shower/toilet to person ratio, and better access to clothes washing facilities. I would consider it 'superior'.
[edit] Notability
not notable should be deleted Sherzo 16:01, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
- I disagree (as a former resident of one, who’s name I had to scan the article to recall). Nothing in this article makes any of these buildings notable. It seems like a copy-cat of one of those absurd articles about American campus micro-features. —Ian Spackman 13:18, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Clean up
I move that this article needs to be cleaned up. It is messy, disorganised, and it contains a lot of superfluous information, and a lot of content reads like a brochure for the university or an advertisement. SGGH speak! 10:04, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
