message: I'd like some feedback from more experienced editors on this issue. There's some significantly varying figures on Oregon's current endowment figures depending on who you ask. Which would be the ideal source to cite? The University of Oregon Foundation's self-reported numbers? Ckere (talk) 19:01, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: We generally rely on the annual report put out by NACUBO since they're experts in this area and many people - including reporters and many Wikipedia editors - are poorly informed or confused about endowments e.g., confusing capital campaigns and endowments.  I think it's fine to use other sources that are more up-to-date if the number has changed significantly and it's clear that the source is indeed reliable on this specific issue.  But it's not always clear if sources are reliable on this specific issue which is why we generally fall back to the NACUBO report. ElKevbo (talk) 19:38, 22 November 2014 (UTC)

text: Willamette Investment Pool numbers also include "other funds with long-term investment horizons," according to the note on p.7 of the University of Oregon Foundation's Audited Financial Statements (http://www.uofoundation.org/s/1540/images/editor_documents/annual_reports/2014_annual_report.pdf). See p.10 for just the University's Endowment balance. Contributor321 (talk) 23:15, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Endowment 

message: Looks like the people section has replaced notable alumni/faculty/staff. There's lots of good info there. However, isn't it kind of redundant as there is already separate articles for that section. Looks like this new section is just a more exclusive list.
I think it would make more sense/cleaner to have a paragraph that discusses a few of the very most notable alumni (Ann Curry, Knight, Wyden, maybe a few more), and then a subsequent paragraph discussing a new notable faculty/ staff. Links to the articles can precede each paragraph,
What do you think?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiseoleman17 (talk • contribs) 05:10, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like some decided to make this change, and IMO it's far too simple -- in fact, even more simple than it was before. As advised by ElKevbo we were in favor of making it more detailed and expansive. The issue with following the length of the UCR article is that UO has many, many more notable alumni and faculty in part due to being a much older and historically larger school. So for the time being, I am going to put it back to the former, expanded state. Ckere (talk) 02:51, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  People section 

message: I think the student life and culture section is becoming a little too long-winded and inconsistent in terms of depth. I moved the forensics subsection to the student activities section. If you think that it deserves its own subsection than I'd recommend creating a separate student life and culture article, where you can go into more detail.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiseoleman17 (talk • contribs) 07:45, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
