[edit] Largest union building: disputed

University of Bristol Union claims to have the UK's largest students union building, as does University of Sheffield Union of Students. Until anyone can find any evidence, I'm changing this to "one of the largest..."

Bristol is able to provide a self-reference (http://www.bris.ac.uk/internationalcentre/europe/erasmusin/arrival.html#union) I couldn't find one for Sheffield, can any one else?

I've said that they claim to be the largest instead. 172.206.219.225 20:45, 21 July 2007 (UTC)


[edit] BURST should have its own wiki page : Dispute

This section moved to separate page for Burst Radio Willm2008 (talk) 00:37, 4 February 2008 (UTC)


It is unfair that BURST does not have an independent wikipedia page. I strongly oppose the amalgamation of it with the UBU. Kg4107 22:36, 16 July 2007 (UTC)


I agree. But there are just too many deletionist wikipedians which vote en masse to delete/redirect/merge articles. When you consider every other student radio station doesnt get merged its a little unfair but thats wikipedia for ya 172.206.219.225 20:47, 21 July 2007 (UTC)


BURST should have its own page on Wikipedia like all the other student radio stations out there. I also strong oppose the amalgamation with UBU, it doesn't fit well on to this page anyway.


BURST is part of UBU. However, apart from funding issues, it operates completely independently of the union, so I think it should have a separate article, with a short section on the UBU article. Also, compare the situation in Wikipedia with that of the Epigram --Peeky44 12:00, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Yep it was merged cos of people called 'deletionists' - they can be a bit of a pain at times. Oh I havent heard of x therefore x is not notable. 137.222.229.74 17:03, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
