Wrongly Categorised?[edit]

Why has this article been added to Category:University of Strathclyde and Category:University of Aberdeen? It is stated that these institutions authenticated UHI degrees, but is this enough to warrant this categorisation? CSJJ104 (talk) 14:47, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of further comment I have now removed these categories CSJJ104 (talk) 15:36, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unreliable external links[edit]

The article appears to depend heavily on unreliable or dead external links, and whether those links were ever really relevant is far from clear

Prune article?[edit]

It appears to me that the article would benefit from some severe pruning
Much of it is, to my mind, either:

incomprehensible verbage

or

verbage designed to lure readers into use of external links which either:

do no not now work

or

now lead to nowhere very relevant

If the article was designed as promotion of the UHI Millennium Institute (which it should not be) then it is self-defeating

Two names?[edit]

It appears the institute may have two names, UHI Higher Education Institute and UHI Millennium Institute

UHI's offical name is UHI Millennium Institute and most often called UHI. It is not entitled to be called University of the Highlands and Islands yet until it is granted university status by the QAA and Privy Council. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Debbie Farquharson (talk • contribs) 16:47, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The organisation is no longer called UHI Millennium Institute. It was renamed 'University of the Highlands and Islands' following its achievement of university status in February 2011. It is referred to as 'UHI' when the name is shortened. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eo01an (talk • contribs) 10:38, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
