Radboud University of Nijmegen[edit]

Which idiot has changed the name of the Radboud University Nijmegen to the Radboud University OF Nijmegen? The official name in English is the Radboud University Nijmegen, not OF Nijmegen. See: http://www.ru.nl/english/ please change this back...

While you are technically correct, consider voicing your correction in a more respectful manner. Also, Wikipedia trives on the fact that each visitor can directly change an error he or she notices. Why not help improving this article yourself and contribute to the greatest encyclopedia on the Internet? Caedus (talk) 01:50, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Error: history[edit]

The initial paragraph states that the Radboud foundation funded the university until WW1, but it was founded only in 1923 after the end of WW1. Should that read WW2? (I appreciate that there's a link but I don't read Dutch - else I would have corrected it myself.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.64.42.63 (talk) 03:42, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Famous alumni[edit]

I have added 'former' and 'current' a few times to make it more clear to people unfamiliar with dutch politicians. Kimelinor 08:16, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RUN vs. RU[edit]

The article states that the university uses the abbreviation RUN. I am sure the university itself uses RU, the website is www.ru.nl and on their site it has several mentionings of RU, see for instance [1], so I have changed RUN into RU. Kimelinor 08:27, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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

Image:Indeinominefeliciter.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 08:29, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale added[edit]

I have added a fair use rationale to Image:Indeinominefeliciter.jpg to justify the use of the image. Leokennis 14:28, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed the translation of 'In dei nomine feliciter' to 'Happily in the name of God'. Feliciter is the adverb of felix, not the comparative.

Radboud University of Nijmegen → Radboud University Nijmegen —

  • Radboud University of Nijmegen → Radboud University Nijmegen — The "of" is not part of the name (see e.g. ru.nl) — 195.169.216.17 (talk) 21:41, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • This was moved from the proposed title a month ago based on a request by User:Tdls ("Existing name is in incorrect English"). I think listing this as possibly controversial is a better solution than moving back and forth without discussion. Jafeluv (talk) 04:12, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Whether or not the name is correct English is not relevant: the article is about the university and thus should use the correct name of the university (which does not include "of", see e.g. their website). I don't think that correcting mistakes (is it really?) in the names of organizations is something to be left to Wikipedia. - 195.169.216.17 (talk) 00:40, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support as per 195.169.216.17. --Atemperman (talk) 18:19, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bachelor Programs[edit]

"All Bachelor's programs are in Dutch." This sentence is not correct anymore. There are also bachelor programs like business in english available. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.155.240.218 (talk) 19:34, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of programs[edit]

Hi all, I came to see how my alma mater's wiki page was doing and I saw the list of master's programs. It looked a bit clunky as a table so I changed to a two-column multi-level list. Still, I wonder whether the list should be here, considering other universities lack such a list. Maybe it could be split up into the diverse faculties instead.
