thread_title:  Change from "Department of Environmental Studies" to "Departement of Environment" 

message: It seems that disproportionate space of the article concerns coverage of the student community by local newspapers, while little mention is made of research or teaching activity. A cynic would suspect that this is consistent with the priorities of the university, but as responsible wikipedians, we may want to consider whether all these citations contribute to the quality of the article. 87.203.157.208 09:33, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Citations 

message: This long list of references may have to go because: a) most of them are report trivial coverage, b) most are hosted in the servers of myAegean rather than their actual context and are therefore hard to verify, c) all of them are in Greek, and therefore not accessible to the majority of users, d d) they are just too cumbersome. I am also puzzled as to why why the myAegean community needs to have more coverage than most schools of the university where the teaching and research takes place... 79.129.236.244 (talk) 18:35, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  References / Citatations to My Aegean 

message: There are some strong complains related to the so-called "Gryspolakis Proposal". Indeed, it is a fact, but there is a majority of people that do not take this proposal as strong as it is seemed to be presented on this article... I'd just like to put a note here, as far as I am concerned. [It seems to me as a targeted negative propaganda, due to lack of people who would like to collect and contribute with various proposals and claims that are somehow against this specific proposal... Please do have this in mind, somehow.. Thanx in advance]
:Thank you for raising your concerns about this report. References to the report were included in the article because it constitutes the most readily available third-party information about the University of the Aegean. Such information is very important because of the Wikipedia policy of verifiability. However, if you have additional third party information that can help to put the Gryspolakis report into perspective, it would be very helpful to integrate it in the article. 85.75.187.217 (talk) 14:15, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why so much weight on "Gryspolakis Proposal" ??!! 

message: In the article it is claimed that The University of the Aegean is an international university with a distinct research orientation. (emphasis added). Such claims seem to somehow stretch the semantic resources of the English language, in my view. To the best of my knowledge, the University of the Aegean is entirely located within the national borders of Greecem and its faculty, staff and students are almost exclusively Greek. The fact that the university is engaged in some international partnerships does not render it international. Similarly, I am not sure what is meant by the word distinct: there seems to be nothing unique in the university mandate that differentiates its research mission from that of any other university. For the time being I have flagged these words, requesting verifiable data that will hopefully challenge my knowledge. Absent such information, I will have to remove these claims in due course. 85.75.187.217 (talk) 14:23, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The comment is an extract from the evaluation of the University of the Aegean. It factually correct, relevant and verifiable, and it is restored. I fail to see the relevance of the original language 85.75.157.125 (talk) 19:01, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Various unsubstantiated claims

message: The "Gryspolakis proposal" is not particularly examining the University of the Aegean yet generally asseses the higher education in Greece. This source is not in english but in greek language. The source referred is a forum/blog ,to that matter, it cannot be considered an objective source and violates Wikipedia's strictly informative content.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.222.184.132 (talk) 14:41, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Despite being wide ranging, the Gryspolakis proposal contains information about the University of the Aegean. If you are aware of a more trustworthy source from where it can be downloaded, you are welcome to update the link. Also, if you feel that the proposal extracts have been mistranslated, feel free to correct them. Please do not use all the above as pretexts to remove information that is not aligned to your personal Point of View. 85.75.157.125 (talk) 19:00, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

text: Please familiarise yourself with WP:NPOV and WP:Verifiability before removing information from these pages again. The Gryspolakis proposal contains verifiable information about the University (e.g. the lack of accreditation among tutors in some departments), and you seem keen on removing it. This is simply not how WP works. 85.75.137.146 (talk) 18:08, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
