[edit] University ratings

(I'm posting this to all articles on UK universities as so far discussion hasn't really taken off on Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities.)

There needs to be a broader convention about which university rankings to include in articles. Currently it seems most pages are listing primarily those that show the institution at its best (or worst in a few cases). See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Universities#University ratings.

[edit] Article update - August 2007

The much needed article update was referenced from Barkers Digital (http://www.barkersdigital.co.uk/UOA/CBC/arts/about.asp). If this violates any notable guidelines, feel free to revert to the previous article. I will then promptly write an original article from said reference.

[edit] Article update - December 2007

I've made some minor changes to how sentences were worded to retain neutrality, and in one case removed the sentence concerning the proposed move to Kings Cross because I don't believe it's required on Wikipedia yet. It was also worded with a sense of uncertainty, which didn't help to support matters.

I've also added the necessary citation(s). Umbrageous (talk) 09:42, 16 December 2007 (GMT)

[edit] Controversial material

I removed an unsourced paragraph that was also added to Michael Bichard, saying that there were student complaints about the university management. The text added to the article on Bichard said that a QAA report had endorsed these. QAA is in principle an excellent source so if someone wanted to summarise the report, good points as well as criticisms, trying to reflect exactly the QAA's verdict, then that would be entirely appropriate.

[edit] London College of Fashion Location

As far as I am aware, London College of Fashion is situated around Oxford Street (John Prince's Street), as correctly stated and uses the University's offices off Bond Street (Davies Street). I don't believe they have any premises in Westminster but I may be wrong. Please feel free to re-ad the location if need be. I've removed it for the time being and replaced it with Bond Street.
