Things To Do
Work on articles that need cleanup. Create a page for every university and college and add {{infobox University}} for it. See the missing list for those institutions still awaiting articles. Place {{WikiProject Higher education}} on every related talk page. Combat boosterism wherever it appears Ensure all articles, including Featured articles, are consistent with the article guidelines.

Hello! On behalf of Adtalem Global Education, I have submitted a few COI edit requests to improve the article from a Wikipedia perspective. The article has had two warning banners for over a decade and my requests are related to acquisitions and divestitures, history, campuses and enrollment, and finances.

I'm seeking editor assistance to review and implement the requests appropriately, if any project members are interested in taking a look. Thanks for your consideration, Inkian Jason (talk) 19:55, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Francis Amasa Walker has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments to the reassessment page. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status may be removed from the article. Z1720 (talk) 03:57, 23 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There is disagreement about whether a large table should be included in or removed from Public Ivy. Suggestions and views from other editors are invited. ElKevbo (talk) 12:48, 26 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The article American College of Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced. Spam for spam. Not notable.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion based on established criteria.

If the proposed deletion has already been carried out, you may request undeletion of the article at any time. Bearian (talk) 00:56, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For WikiProjects that participate in rating articles, the banners for talk pages usually say something like:

• "This article has been rated as Low-importance on the importance scale."

There is a proposal to change the default wording on the banners to say "priority" instead of "importance". This could affect the template for your group. Please join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council#Proposal to update wording on WikiProject banners.

This has been discussed in the past. Should an alumni cat be added to someone with an honorary degree, such as done at Category:University of Arizona alumni? I recommend not including them. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 01:32, 10 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely not - they are not alumni. ElKevbo (talk) 02:21, 10 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No. As ElKevbo said, they're not alumni. Robminchin (talk) 05:11, 10 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of oldest universities in continuous operation, which is within the scope of this WikiProject, has an RfC for possible consensus. A discussion is taking place.

There are several overpopulated alumni and faculty cats for universities. I am working on Category:Indiana University alumni and Category:University of Colorado alumni. If someone wants to jump in on diffusing Category:University of Illinois alumni, that would be appreciated. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 12:43, 31 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I work at UNT Health Fort Worth. Over the past couple months, I have been placing edit requests on the UNT Health Talk page in an effort to improve the article's accuracy and comprehensiveness. My latest request concerns updates to UNT Health's History section, which has some good qualities but is also a little bit light on quality sourcing and could stand to cover a few more important developments in the university's history.

My request includes a full section draft, which you can review by following this link. It's a pretty long draft, so I appreciate that it will take some time for independent editors to read through it and check the sources and all that. If I can make that process easier in any way, please do let me know. Thanks! LM at UNT Health (talk) 21:31, 7 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I have nominated Douglas MacArthur for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets the featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" in regards to the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Z1720 (talk) 17:07, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I've been working on the this article for a bit but there's still much copyediting and promotion removal to be done. I'd really appreciate a second set of eyes on it. Thanks, BrotherGunk (talk) 00:38, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Generally not acceptable on Wikipedia, but is this considered acceptable for university articles? Graywalls (talk) 01:59, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean primary sources or self-published sources? I wouldn't say there's a particularly high level of ordinary sources. There is, however, often quite a bit of information from self-published sources in higher ed studies, because this is normally the best source for things like a university's structure and constitution. As long as these are used per WP:ABOUTSELF this isn't normally a problem. Robminchin (talk) 04:40, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

One issue is sources being used to establish notability. Larger/older schools are very likely to have sufficient coverage in independent sources to establish notability. It may be harder to find independent sources giving significant coverage to smaller, less well-known schools. Content about the outward-facing aspects of a school (reputation, impact, etc.) definitely needs to be verifiable from independent sources. Donald Albury 15:42, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

If the school is accredited by a legitimate accreditation organization (one in Wikipedia), it probably should have an article. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 23:38, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
