Talk:University of Berlin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hmm? There isn't just one "University of Berlin". There's the HU, FU, TU, or is this a historical entry? please clarify. --snoyes 00:14, 1 March 2003

That's right, there is not only one University of Berlin. That's why it should link to the List of Universities in Berlin - like in the German Wikipedia. --Wikistar 13:00, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

For 200 years, Humboldt was the University in Berlin, which is reflected in hundreds of links in hundreds of articles - in case somebody wants to contest this, let him or her go and change all those links. I have added a template at the top of "Humboldt's" page, which hopefully gets rid of this little problem. This looks to me like a matter of POV, local pride, and original research.

“POV, local pride, and original research.” Strange contribution. User:Dahn simply ignores the discussion sides, but we should not subordinate him bad will. In the discussion of the article Humboldt University of Berlin User:Wikistar gives us the reasons, why it should better redirect to the List of Universities in Berlin. The German Wikipedia proceeds in such a way and we better should follow.

Virtually all pages that have links to Berlin University or University of Berlin have the Humboldt in mind. For 140 years, "University of Berlin" meant the university today called Humboldt; it has never meant anything else. —Angr 11:17, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
