Lacking sources
In the introduction, the claim is made that ESSEC is one of the two leading business schools in France. According to whom, the author of this article? I guess HEC is the the other one, but I've seen rankings where EM-Lyon and/or ESCP-EAP have been ranked above ESSEC. If the article is going to be categorical about ESSEC being one of the two leading business schools in France some very good sources will be needed. Just finding one ranking that claims it isn't really enough as long as other rankings disagree. Another problem is that a number of rankings, both domestic and international, are given in the article but with no source provided. For all major universities and business schools I've seen on Wikipedia, such rankings are sourced by inserting the link to the rank. That hasn't been done here, so the rankings must stand as unsourced for now. JdeJ 17:56, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Promotional content, overall quality
I think the whole page needs revision. The amount of promotional content is extremely heavy. Also, the history section is written in very bad English, obviously by a non-native speaker. It would be better to delete 90% of the chapter than keeping it this way. Warlock96 (talk) 13:21, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * I agree with Warlock96, this is a horrible article in barely readable English. I also think deleting 90% of it would be better than leaving it as it is.Jeppiz (talk) 09:58, 20 September 2019 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 10 December 2020
Deletion of the controversies paragraph. This is an inappropriate content, sources are gossip articles. Plus defamation of a student by giving her name which is against the rules of wikipedia. Oddly, Otterslort just made some bogus changes before adding this paragraph, clearly to defame. 93.31.62.78 (talk) 23:37, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes - The Controversies section should be removed on the following grounds: 1. it identifies  the student by name, which can lead to unsavory repercussions, 2. it seems a rather isolated incident that doesn't actually have much to do with the school, except for the fact that this person goes there, 3. it's not really that notable. The person who caused the incident is definetly not notable and Wikipedia is not a repository of every single stupid and racist thing anybody has ever done.

Rankings: Sources Added
Relevant sources have been added for the rankings section. The only thing that remains an issue with the page is the 'History' section. The information is quite useful, although it is poorly structured with incorrect grammar. I will be fixing it in a couple of days. If there are any other issues, do let me know and we could try to rectifying it too.

Alumni list
Hi, while I agree on the inconsistency, the guideline per WP:ALUMNI indicate the listing requires a reference for it. As some of the listing may have predated the guideline, the general sentiment is that whatever is on the listing, stays there and not removed. However if any editors were to remove them, they can remove them anytime, similar to unsourced statements. Any new insertion of alumni is subjected to WP:ALUMNI when added in. Feel free to remove the previous listing (for those without a reference) or insert a reference link from their pages to here. Thanks --Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 09:57, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
