Talk:Warren National University/Archive 3

message: Below is an actual initial baseline for use at the WNU site to proceed with the start of baselining this WNU article for WP:UNI format, and in order to accomplish completion of most of the WNU Wikipedia article.
Intent is to take steps, achieve consensus along the way; document that consensus to a specific baseline at the time of that consensus step, and move on similarily until the main article is completed.
Of course, as more information is obtained, it is expected to be entered into the article under established Wikipedia policy.
Below is rkowalke's initial attempt at a WP:UNI format.
Please feel free to comment and modify the initial baseline.
Thank you.
