Yes, it's that guy known for all those dozens of popular music lists, back yet again with an FLC on.......higher education??? I decided to step outside my comfort zone for once and, inspired by IntGrah's excellent work on List of masters of Trinity College, Cambridge, work on this one. My connection with this particular institution is that my son currently studies there, but I am reasonably certain that that doesn't count as a WP:COI :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:00, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For me it was because I saw Jesus College Oxford was a featured topic—and so the rivalry continues... Nice work! IntGrah (talk) 07:54, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • "a limit on the numbers of students which the women's colleges could recruit": "admit" would work better than "recruit".
  • The cells of the header row are missing their scopes.
  • A cropped version of Fiona Caldicott's image can be used.
  • "(2008–2010) then Leader of the Opposition in the House of Lords". A comma before the "then" would work better, imo.
  • I'm unsure if the peerage title needs to be mentioned for the current principal, in the table.
  • That's all I got. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:24, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pseud 14[edit]

Sgubaldo[edit]

  • Add the doi to Refs 7, 9, 10, 12, 14 and 19,
  • For Ref. 20, add '– Somerville College' after 'Emily Penrose' to keep it consistent with its usage in the other sources.

I can't see any other issues. Support promotion as comments are minor. Sgubaldo (talk) 10:56, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Sgubaldo: - apologies for being dumb, but what is a "doi" and where do I find it for each source? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:01, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I should've explained that better. A digital object identifier (doi) is a string of numbers and letters that uniquely identifies a document, usually a journal article. For the references in this article, you can find them just below the author.
For example, for Ref. 9, below 'Enid Huws Jones', you can see https://doi.org/10.1093/ref:odnb/34836. The doi here is 10.1093/ref:odnb/34836 and you can add it a WP citation as |doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/34836, producing:
  • Huws-Jones, Enid (23 September 2004). "Maitland, Agnes Catherine (1849–1906)". Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. doi:10.1093/ref:odnb/34836. Archived from the original on 9 May 2024. Retrieved 8 May 2024.
Adding it to the citation produces a link to the article so, to be fair, I can see why it may be redundant with the url already there.

@Sgubaldo: - thanks for clarifying, that is done now -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:28, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh[edit]

Source review: Passed

  • Reliable enough for the information being cited
  • Consistent date formatting
  • Consistent and proper reference formatting
  • Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
  • Spot checks on 12 sources match what they are being cited for

I assumed good faith on the sources I did not have access to. Scoured for something to criticize, but I got nothing. Great work Chris! Support. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:59, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
