# Talk:University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

@ElKevbo, I'm guessing you may have thoughts about how to move this toward a less boosterish state; offers an academic experience similar to that of an Ivy League university isn't something I think we can support. Overall, we need to either reform or delist GAs like this, since editors ought to be able to point to them as precedent-setting examples. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 05:39, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

If we must include this information in the lede - more on that in a moment - then I don't know why we need to expand on it at all as readers who would like to know more can easily visit the article all about it.
I don't think this has been centrally discussed in several years but I am still opposed to including this information in the lede of any article. Why in the world are we giving so much weight to one or two books published in either 1985 or 2001? The compromise that was struck in the previous discussion was to only include this in the lede for institutions named in the 1985 book, excluding the "runner-ups." I would be very amenable reopening this discussion to overturn that compromise in favor of relegating this to the "Rankings" or a similar section if it's included at all.

No Wiki entry on a large Southern institution would be  complete without a section on the history of race relations and integration at that institution. 2600:1700:2980:51A0:61C1:F9A:D203:641B (talk) 20:22, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

History of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill could certainly use some improvement and expansion.  S0091 (talk) 22:20, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

I work for the UNC University Libraries. I'd like to update the size of the libraries' collections in this article, but I know I can't do that in accordance with Wikipedia's Conflict of Interest policy. 
I would appreciate it if someone else finds it notable enough to update: We now hold more than 7.8 million print volumes, and an additional 2.2 million ebook volumes, for a total of just over 10 million volumes. as seen on https://library.unc.edu/about/grant-applications/ Mezzani (talk) 14:25, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks so much for asking for help! In my experience, most Wikipedia editors are okay with editors who have a conflict of interest, even those paid by the subject of an article, making uncontroversial updates to information that is already in an article but outdated. So feel free to update this information in the article (and update or add a source, as appropriate)! ElKevbo (talk) 00:52, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
