message: why does this human-edited list exist? is it not better to file individual pages into the correct categories and have them show under the auto lists? Artlondon 11:31, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I have reduced the list here as there were loads of people on the list who , yes, held senior business positions, but who could hardly be considered "notable".  Not only did none of them have their on Wikipedia page but in most cases neither did the company that they held a senior position in.
There is method to my deletions; only people for whom their company (the senior position in which was the rationale for their inclusion) had its own article on Wikipedia remained.  The rest are clearly not notable.  Otherwise we may as well add thousands of people to this article.--Zoso Jade (talk) 17:10, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Are really the only current staff of note in the "Mathematical, Physical and Space Sciences" and "Medical and Biological Sciences" departments? The limited or partisan nature of the page makes the university look quite poor. Maybe there aren't many staff of note, however. --Septemberfourth476 (talk) 00:13, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  current staff of note 

message: "UCL reports that whilst there is no student on their records with this precise name, they have found someone with a similar name and a university spokesperson has said 'It must be stressed that the university has no evidence that this is the same person currently being referred to in the media.'" In other words, they have a name close to it, but do not believe it is the same individual. It's media speculation that is unencylopedic and inappropriate here, atleast until it can be nailed down for certain. I am aware of Epeefleche's stance here and elsewhere on this issue, so I would appreciate third-party opinions. Grsz11 18:53, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I see the ref support for the other info, but is there a ref for the quoted language above?  It is a bit at odds with the ref'd language that the school found someone with that name.--Epeefleche (talk) 19:27, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a quote of your addition to the article. Grsz11 20:36, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Whilst?  Don't think so.--Epeefleche (talk) 02:46, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Anyway, I assume this is a non-issue for you at this point ... correct?--Epeefleche (talk) 03:04, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Um, yes, they're your words. Grsz11 04:20, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Not true.  You're wrong.  Keep scrolling back on that diff.  Secondly, as I said before, I assume this is a non-issue for you at this point--am I correct on that as well?--Epeefleche (talk) 04:39, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: With the new confirmations it's fine, and that's all we expect here. We don't report speculation, merely historical fact, now we have stronger sourcing for it. The header isn't ideal, but I've no clue what else to title it. Cheers, 04:42, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
