- Why it should be changed:

Originally I edited the page with promotional content how ever this time I updated it with neutral, less content. The content before was a mix of albanian and english language so I correct it all in english. The request update that I am submiting is how the page should look. All is referenced. If you find something wrong with the content please let me know so I wont lose my update and find a way to fix it. If there appears to have any copyright issues please let me know se we can come up with a solution.

- @Xhenis.behluli Hello, I am working on restructuring the content of your edit request in keeping with good articles such as Brigham Young University. I notice much of the content is taken verbatim from the sources provided, which does not adhere to Wikipedia's policy. So, I am working on revising the proposed content, removing promotional content and adding additional primary and secondary sourcing to support what remains. Please refer to my [draft in progress]. I appreciate your feedback. Thanks, Heartmusic678 (talk) 13:13, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Heartmusic678,
- Please review my edit again as the content is not promotional but informative. You can look at other univerity pages. Univerum is a young university so the cantent can't historical.
- I added the reference to the campuses. The erasmus projects are taken from a pdf file that I can happily submit if I can. Please refer where you find the content promotional so I can write it even more neutral since you left the page basicly without content. Also can you keep the original side box with the logo. Xhenis.behluli (talk) 08:19, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Xhenis.behluli Thanks for your message.
- Please understand that what I shared with you was an incomplete working draft that I recently updated as I reviewed each part of your edit request.
- Please let me know what you think of the current draft. We are not allowed to copy and paste content that matches the source content word-for-word, so I have been working on this draft to rewrite the content in other words.
- It’s not customary for schools to have a long list of every single program they have to offer. Short lists are okay to add as well as notable programs. If the school has multiple divisions/departments, those are okay to add.
- I noticed the content about the business school is repeated in your proposed lead paragraph and in your proposed Rankings section, so I only included it in the rankings section with a brief overview in the lead.
- I previously shared the BYU page with you as a reference to a good university article. You are more than welcome to share any college pages you used as a reference as well.
- If you could please address what is highlighted in the updated draft, I can include that information. Looking forward to that and your feedback. Thanks. Heartmusic678 (talk) 13:52, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Xhenis.behluli:. The suggested draft is here for your review when you have time. Thanks, Heartmusic678 (talk) 12:12, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

- (78 agreements and 9 projects are the numbers currently on the website.) - The web site was partially updated, the new list of universities was updated but not the numbers. You can look at it again.
- It would be great if you could provide a secondary source for this detail. www.isc.hbs.edu/resources/courses/moc-affiliate-network/Pages/participating-institutions.aspx does not list Universum College as an MOC affiliate. It there are any other accolades you would like to add, this can be done here in the lead.) Will look at it and get back to you soon.
- (Please provide sourcing that supports the No.16 ranked masters degree program and the name of the specific program.) - I can't find it what year that ranking was done, so I removed it for now. Xhenis.behluli (talk) 09:33, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Declined. The additions (as proposed in the collapsed section above) are almost exclusively sourced to the school's websites, except for the rankings, which are sourced to a rather sketchy-looking "best of" website. The new version is generally rather "puffy" (Wikipedia does not care about mission statements) and the content is more appropriate to the school's "about us" page than an encyclopedia article. GeneralNotability (talk) 00:03, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
- Actually, I will incorporate some of the proposed changes to the lead section. GeneralNotability (talk) 00:04, 28 September 2022 (UTC)
