[edit] Grammar
- Corrected grammar -- changed "The University calls itself as a city within a city" to "The University calls itself a city within a city".

[edit] Needs work
This page needs LOADS of work. I don't have tons of time to work on it, but I'll start. People need to realize that this very page may be the first introduction that prosective students have to the U. As it stands, I sure as hell wouldn't have picked UM if I had seen the lack of pride students have in something as important in today's landscape as the school's Wiki page. I'm just going to use other major schools' Wikis as a template and update from there. 192.77.161.22 17:15, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
- What kind of work? What specifically about the page needs to be improved? How so?
- Lastly, if you chose your college based on its Wikipedia article you made a very poorly informed choice indeed. Hyacinth (talk) 02:38, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Redirect
Why is this page called University of Montana - Missoula? Everyone simply calls it The University of Montana. The redirect should be to University of Montana from University of Montana - Missoula, rather than the other way around.--Theblackgecko 00:49, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- In general, you are correct, articles are title after the most common name for a subject.
- For the conventions regarding school names, however, see Wikipedia:Naming conventions#School names. Hyacinth (talk) 02:40, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:UMLogo.gif
Image:UMLogo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
