John Jay Article

Hey, I don't know how to leave a signature so sorry about that but saw your edit. Those were college majors (have provided a link to the correct source), I don't know if it's against WP policy to list the majors the college offers (if it does, please feel free to let me know or undo it and I apologize) but wanted to give you the heads up. Anyway, it is dedicated to Criminal Justice, hence the college's name (John Jay College of Criminal Justice). Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.41.108.33 (talk • contribs) 22:16, November 4, 2021 (UTC)

please do not remove any content without a reasonable rationale

you just removed content from Prescott College entry that was requested to be left alone, was from a referenced source, had no issues, and you raised no issues...giving zero rationale for your removal. that is inappropriate. 2605:59C8:537D:7B10:6C62:E375:6B03:926B (talk) 23:01, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

Muhlenberg College

Your removed two of the three points in the "In popular culture" section with a cursory statement that they told the reader nothing about the college. A page's "In popular culture" section by definition doesn't necessarily tell the reader about the page's topic, instead it is an indication of the topic's influence in the wider culture. The reference to the Frank Zappa recording is in keeping with the types of things typically mentioned in such "In popular culture" sections. It is a claim to fame of a small academic institution and should not have been removed.

But even if it were necessary for content to tell the reader about the topic of the page, that criterion would have been met with the reference to the Zero Day series. Not just any college was selected for the reference as the common alma mater of two of the characters. Muhlenberg was selected because it is a small liberal arts college with a center-left bent like the characters. It has a history rooted in Christian faith, which is important because the characters believed they are acting in keeping with their moral compass. Per the series, Muhlenberg is the kind of sheltered academic setting where ideas are explored and the character, veteran Erik Hayes, could heal from the trauma endured from multiple tours of duty in war zones. That reference to Muhlenberg College actually told the reader a lot about the school. It should not have been removed. IndigoSalisbury (talk) 21:23, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

We're not here to document "claims to fame" for any subject. Our current guidance for the contents of college and university articles says this about "popular culture" sections: "If there are numerous reliable sources that discuss the institution's influence on popular culture then it may be appropriate to have a brief section describing that influence and offering well-known, pertinent examples. Such a section should not be an indiscriminate list of instances where the college or university is mentioned (in movies, books, television shows, etc.) nor should the section offer examples and discussion selected only by Wikipedia editors."

Do you have any reliable sources that describe the relationship between the Zero Day series and the college? ElKevbo (talk) 21:30, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
