Fair use rationale for Image:Helia logo.gif
Image:Helia logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:11, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Use of 'Helia' name
I notice that the 'Helia' name is still being used in this article. As far as I know, the correct form should be 'Haaga-Helia' as Helia, in effect, ceased to exist after Haaga and Helia merged. k33l0r (talk) 08:38, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Also, shouldn't the article itself be retitled "Haaga-Helia University Of Applied Sciences"? k33l0r (talk) 08:39, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Requested move

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was not moved. Objections have not been replied to. -- Aervanath (talk) 14:14, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

The University has permanently changed its name, so the Wiki page should reflect this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by K33l0r (talk • contribs)


 * Weak oppose. No justification for the move has been provided in terms of WP:NC, either here or above. Official names would also be worth a read before proceeding any futher with this particular rename request. (Just for clarity, the move request currently listed at WP:RM is for a move Helsinki Business Polytechnic (Helia) -> Haaga-Helia University Of Applied Sciences.)

The result of the move request was: Page moved to "Haaga–Helia University of Applied Sciences" per discussion below. Redirects were also created under the alternative titles proposed. -- Hadal (talk) 21:41, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

Helsinki Business Polytechnic (Helia) → HAAGA-HELIA University of Applied Sciences – HAAGA-HELIA UAS was born when Helsinki Business Polytechnic and Haaga institute Polytechnic merged. Helsinki Business Polytechnic does not exist any more. (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_polytechnics_in_Finland) At the moment when one looks for information about HAAGA-HELIA on wikipedia, the page is redirected to this Helsinki Business Polytechnic page that contains information about HAAGA-HELIA UAS. That is confusing. I hope that the name would be changed to HAAGA-HELIA University of Applied Sciences and the Helsinki Business Polytechnic and Haaga insitute polytechnic searches would redirect to this page. Thank you. Sjarvin (talk) 12:01, 24 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Move to Haaga-Helia University of Applied Sciences (or even Haaga–Helia University of Applied Sciences, per WP:ENDASH -- not sure which would be the proper choice here). The all caps in the name don't indicate an acronym, so the words should not be capitalized in the article. Jafeluv (talk) 11:26, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Support alternative move to Haaga–Helia University of Applied Sciences, Google  seems overwhelmingly in favour. This move reflects a subtle change in article topic which is entirely appropriate given the history of the subject. Perhaps this isn't 100% proceedurally, but it seems the best result so WP:IAR and move on. Andrewa (talk) 17:45, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
