University of California, San Diego[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because sibling article UC Riverside is already a Featured Article (in fact, it's today's featured article as of this writing) whereas UCSD isn't even a Good Article. Therefore I wish to solicit suggestions to improve it.

  • The list of UC San Diego's 6 colleges should be made into a paragraph.
  • The "Recognition" section has an "outdated" tag.
  • The "Admissions" section has external links in the paragraph. Inline citations needed instead Done. --Cybercobra (talk) 03:30, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Citation needed" tag in "Student life" section Cited. --Cybercobra (talk) 04:24, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • The "Notable people" section could be incorporated into a "See also" section. Done. --Cybercobra (talk) 03:30, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • The University of California, San Diego is refered to as both UCSD and UC San Diego in the article. I think one or other should be used consistently.
  • In the "Academics" section 4 images are stacked up on each other. I think a 1 or 2 could be removed and the rest should alternate between being right-aligned and left-aligned. Done. --Cybercobra (talk) 04:02, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • The gallery in the "public art" section should be removed. (see WP:MOSIMAGE and WP:Image use policy#Image galleries) One image should remain in the section, while the rest could be put in the "Stuart Collection" article or on Commons. Done. --Cybercobra (talk) 03:47, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't be too difficult to UC San Diego to GA. As you mentioned UC Riverside is an FA, making it a good model for improving UC San Diego. --​​​​D.B.talkcontribs 16:23, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
