I have marked this article for cleanup, because boy, howdy, does it ever need it. Microtonal 29 June 2005 04:58 (UTC)

  • Actually, before the cleaning begins, it looks like this page might be a great big copyright violation. I Googled a few random lines in it and found large portions or text copied directly from [1], [2], and [3]. There are probably more. In a couple days, I'll list this on Wikipedia:Copyright problems and give it the tag and all... but I thought I'd open the floor for anyone who wanted to rewrite the article before then or come up with some sort of defense. Anyone? NymphadoraTonks 29 June 2005 07:23 (UTC)
    • I've already added it. There's little point in discussing this as the copyright violations are blatantly staring you in the face --Vanguard 29 June 2005 19:42 (UTC)
      • Fair enough. Thanks for that. I've never listed a copyright violation before, so I didn't want to jump the gun. But I'm starting to see how it works. --NymphadoraTonks 29 June 2005 20:44 (UTC)
        • Good catch on the copyright stuff. I didn't even think to check for it. I might write a new article tonight, since I don't really have anything else important to do. Microtonal 29 June 2005 22:40 (UTC)
          • No problem NymphadoraTonks, good call on collecting the sites in the first place, I only found the one. --Vanguard 1 July 2005 22:19 (UTC)

[edit] Belmont Abbey College/Temp

OK, I've put up a temp article. I took most of the stub that was there before the anonymous user uploaded all the CR-questionable stuff, and added a taxobox and some info that I found here. I have an image of the school logo (taken from the just linked website), but I am unsure of its CR status, so I haven't uploaded it or image-linked it into the taxobox. Microtonal 30 June 2005 22:28 (UTC)

Hi! I work at the college, I saw the uploaded content and it was on my to do list of something to straighten up!(all jumble-ly and all) lol. We have recently changed logos and I will be happy to supply the site with the proper image. Also since I am aware of BAC being on this site I will be most happy to keep an eye on the page (although I doubt, at least hope, no one woulod put a disparaging remark up!)

For what it's worth, the Sigma Alpha on Campus is not the same as the Agricultural society - there should probably be a disambiguation page for it -- the Sigma Alpha here is a local fraternity with no national ties.

Also as a Belmont Abbey College student I will watch this page and its talk page to help fill in any information needed or requested (or even help to confirm the information). -- Simcop2387 04:11, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Been on my watch for qutie a while and I go here too :). Nice changes. Chris M. 05:36, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

I don't think it's fair to call the Basilica a home for the Roman Catholic Congregation that worships there. As a Monestary, there is no parish that calls the Basilica. Mass is offered, but even if no one showed up, there'd still be Mass. The parish down the street (Queen of the Apostles) is the parish for people in the area -- the ones that belong to a parish.

[edit] Belmont_Abbey_College#Faculty_health_care_coverage

I just added this section, with appropriate references, and I was looking for some peer review. Is there a better section for it to go under in the article? Feel free to fix grammar mistakes of course as well. Chris M. (talk) 09:30, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
