Talk:List of universities in Yorkshire and the Humber

Further Improvement to this list
Hi there. I'm wondering what needs to be done with this list. I'm guessing the actual writing needs some improvement. What would you say is good/bad? What is not needed? What needs to be added

What are opinions on the headings in the table? Anything not needed? Anything necessary that is currently ommited?

What about references? I know the student figures need then. How about the proof that certain people are the Chancellors? Anything in the text needing references?

Thanks. Evil Eye (talk) 19:21, 7 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I would think that established and group need referencing as well. On the table the logo column does not need a sort on as cannot really sort by logo. Keith D (talk) 20:35, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Huddersfield University logo.gif
The image Image:Huddersfield University logo.gif is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
 * That this article is linked to from the image description page.

Table sorting
The table only sorts the student numbers by the initial numeral, not by number. Can this be fixed? --80.2.115.139 (talk) 12:13, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
