Contrast[edit]

Does there need to be a contrast between these schools and the four "state-related" schools (Lincoln, Penn State, Pitt, and Temple) that are state-funded, but to a lesser degree, and not under the PSSHE? Rlquall 02:57, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would make good sense to do so briefly, but I don't feel knowledgeable enough to make the appropriate edits.--Lhakthong (talk) 18:09, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Indiana Ranking[edit]

I recently edited the Indiana University of Pennsylvania ranking to reflect the most recent U.S. News ranking, which clearly says it is a Tier 4 National University, and which should not be confused with the ranking for Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. All other institutions in that list are ranked according to the most recent US News rankings. Indiana should be no exception. Can whoever reverted my edit please explain why they did so? Thanks.--Lhakthong (talk) 22:05, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Futhermore, as far as I can tell, there is no "Universities-Doctoral (North)" category in the US News rankings.--Lhakthong (talk) 22:19, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Considering there has been no response, I have made the edits to accurately reflect US News rankings as reported by the agency itself.--Lhakthong (talk) 17:56, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Anonymous edits are being made by the same user here and on the Indiana University of Pennsylvania page that repeatedly delete edits cited with verifiable sources and add specific information otherwise not available -- "Tier 4 in the National Universities Categories by US News", which is the exact ranking given by US News and can be found on the web publicly. The editor thus maintains vague information, "one of the nation’s top national universities" and has a non-third party source (the university itself) as its citation. On ~~the other~~ this page, ~~Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education,~~ repeated edits by this anonymous user are nonsense and entirely inconsistent with US News Rankings. I will request the pages are locked to anonymous editors if such edits continue. I admit I might have used the rollback function hastily, but these repeated anonymous reverts are done without explanation, delete verifiable information, and replace it with nonsense.--Lhakthong (talk) 04:00, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Considering the anonymous IP address is located in Indiana, Pennsylvania, the edits could be a violation of the conflict of interest guidelines.--Lhakthong (talk) 04:14, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Sshelogo.jpg[edit]

Image:Sshelogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Bloomsburg.GIF[edit]

The image Image:Bloomsburg.GIF is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
That this article is linked to from the image description page.

The following images also have this problem:
