Talk:Solent University

message: Regarding this entry, it should be noted that a critical remark on the ranking of Southampton Solent University in the Guardian newspaper from '05 (this former polytechnical college was only very recently awarded the title of a university) was removed from the article on 22nd May 06. The current ranking is still rather low, around 100th place. One may argue that this is probably a result of the UK government's push to award many colleges the status of a 'university', giving this title a rather inflationary problem, and putting the former colleges under a lot of competition in the rankings. JPThomas, Thu Jun  8 16:36:45 BST 2006
Regarding the reinsertion of the above comment, the current Guardian rankings place this university substantially higher than last in the rankings.  [Guardian_ranks].  As the statement is no longer true, it was again removed. MRM 02:08, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  You don't know the first thing about statistics...  Are you perchance an "academic" with this "university"?
I would not describe that as substantial, if it had broken through the top 100 barrier, you may have more of a case, but its still way down there and hardly a great leap. You attempt to over complicate this basic fact with statisical analysis. This language is a far more appropriate assesment and was written by another member and I agree with it.

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.

message: I've removed most of the redlinked alumni, and will add back those that I can verify easily.  A lot of the alumni listed looked like fake/joke/non-notable entries.  ThomasL (talk) 17:48, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Information to be added or removed: Correct Solent University logo file to be added to the page and motto to be updated. (Logo file can be provided by )
Explanation of issue: The logo currently showing on the page is an old logo. Solent University changed their logo in 2017. In 2020 Solent University have also created a new coat of arms with an updated motto. The motto is now 'Ready for the Future'.
References supporting change: To check, visit www.solent.ac.uk where current logo is displayed throughout the site.

replies: text: Thank you for posting an edit request, I have updated the motto in the article. You could upload the logo yourself following Wikipedia:Uploading images or post a request at Wikipedia:Files_for_upload, otherwise the waiting time for requested edits can be several months. If you have any difficulty you could post a query at the Wikipedia:Help desk, or the Wikipedia:Teahouse for new editors (I have not done an upload myself). If that works, reply here and I will be happy to update the article. TSventon (talk) 23:36, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

message: I reverted the edit made by , The Coat of arms should always be the top wiki logo, this is the same across all UK universities that has been appointed/given a Coat of arms. This is in keeping with the UK universities WIKI policy. Mrmattu (talk) 16:10, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
