Talk:Graduate School of Management, Globis University

COI
I'm about to add a COI warning flag to the top of the article. Here's why.

In this edit, 210.198.89.253 added:


 * GLOBIS University offers exceptional students to our Corporate Mentor Partners, aiming to foster their development as future Global Leaders for the benefit of society and the wider international community. Also, through our corporate research projects, GLOBIS students will provide fresh insight and perspective on the corporate mentors’ management issues.

(my emphases). Since mid-2009, 210.198.89.253 has edited this article and closely related articles, but made almost no edits to subjects not directly relevant to this one. And the article remains full of vaguely uplifting talk that's unsourced, or sourced only to the school. -- Hoary (talk) 08:54, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

"Top", "professional", "distinguished", "exciting", "invaluable", "prominent", "inspired" -- but not a hint of independent sourcing.

I'm about to perform radical surgery on this section. If it can be augmented in an encyclopedic way, properly referenced, fine. If not, don't readd to it. -- Hoary (talk) 09:00, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Maybe it could be cut down to those speakers who have a WP article. Itsmejudith (talk) 13:30, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, one could cut it down in that way, and then remove "Dr./Mr./Ms.", and then add to the top. Though I think that even in its current state the article has more than enough unreferenced sections. Perhaps a radically (as you suggest) reduced version of this list should instead be referenced before its addition. -- Hoary (talk) 01:19, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * You're quite right. We shouldn't have unreferenced entries in alumni sections. And when I click on those in the list above that have a WP article, not one bio mentions Globis. Some mention MBA degrees obtained in other universities. Itsmejudith (talk) 18:22, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * (Cough) It's not an alumni section. &para; Though yes, lists of alumni too should be referenced. Spottily sourced and totally unsourced lists are endemic in articles on Japanese universities. (I guess in part because of the influence of Japanese-language Wikipedia, in which the average article is sourced spottily at best and is a mere congeries of lists.) -- Hoary (talk) 00:43, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Doh! Sorry. I did notice in my first statements, then seems I forgot. Can I start again? A list of past guest speakers isn't a top priority for any article on a higher education institution. Let's leave it here. Itsmejudith (talk) 01:04, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes. If they were guest lecturers for entire courses, perhaps a different matter. (And as for inspirational talks by guest celebs, see this.) -- Hoary (talk) 01:27, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
