message: Not sure if my recent addition re: Riley Gaines will remain on the article, but if it does, the last four events listed in History would be more accurately categorized as controversies. SmolBrane (talk) 15:47, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I prefer to remove Gaines from the article entirely.  But, definately take it out of the "history" section.  It looks absurd how four items in history are full paragraphs of contemporary news, and we have just brief notes on all the real history before.  For example, starting BA's or getting University status seems historically significant for a University.  It's an unavoidable bias, that we always think what we heard about yesterday is somehow extra special, compared to all the stuff in the past, most of which is forgotten, despite being a big deal at the time.  Also, I dislike contentious material about a contemproary person being spread around in a way, that makes it a lot easier for somebody to sneak in bad edits, that would be missed in the central BLP.  I'm not complaining about the current content, as it seems to match Riley Gaines article, but there is that danger.  Are we going to write a news summary of every campus protest?  Anytime a "history" section refers to an "ongoing" investigation, you know this is probably not history, but just news.  --Rob (talk) 01:23, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The Riley Gaines incident is pretty unique with the barricading and PEN America commenting on it.  Also the sourcing is robust.  I agree content could be better organized. SmolBrane (talk) 14:44, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Controversy section should be revisited 

message: A search on Google Books for "project rebound" "San Francisco" gets coverage from several independent book sources, so those would be good to use for that section instead of primary sources, I'll try to add some. Left guide (talk) 07:44, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: No problem, I also think the John Keith Irwin article might have some good references to use for the Project Rebound section of this article, so that’s another idea. Left guide (talk) 07:51, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

message: I don't think there needs to be a list of every single building. Maybe there could be a separate article titled Main Campus of San Francisco State University where the list could go and the main campus buildings section could be replaced with a section called Main campus and have a description of the campus. Thoughts? Mariwlqs (talk) 07:53, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
