List of State University of New York units[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I would like to work it up to a WP:FL and need feedback on ways it can be improved.

Comments from Dabomb87 (talk · contribs) Nice list overall. I'm an FLC reviewer, so doubtless you'll see me again soon. Because of this, I'll give general comments only:

  • Check for unnecessary wordiness and redundancy:
    • "administration is located in Albany, New York," done
    • "Further, SUNY should not be confused" done
  • At FLC, they like to see a summary of the list in addition to the background info (e.g., first / most recently built institution, which has the highest enrollment, etc.)
  • Put em dashes (—) in the empty cells. done
  • It's generally more appealing to center columns that contain figures. done
  • The easter egg links in the "[Year] Founded" column are alright, but you should provide a note explaining where these links go; see List of New Jersey Nets head coaches as an example. done
  • Per WP:LAYOUT, See also comes before References. done
  • Per MOS, only the first word in section headers should be capitalized. done
  • IMO, it's too much detail to put the websites in this list. Those should go in the main articles of the respective institutions. redid references
  • Some of the "Founded" columns don't have references. redid references
  • "New York State Education Department" Link? done
