Talk:National University of Computer and Emerging Sciences

Untitled
FAST and NUCES are independent of each other. FAST is a parent organization of NUCES (whihc used to be FAST Institutes of Computer Science). Some people have the misconception that FAST and FAST Institutes of Computer Science (FAST-ICS) meant the same thing. FAST still exists, but FAST-ICS is now National University of Computer & Emerging Sciences (NUCES). —Preceding unsigned comment added by User: (talk • contribs)

If you're refering to my tagging of the two articles to be merged (National_University_of_Computer_and_Emerging_Sciences and Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Technology), then you should go back to the page Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Technology and see what it says in the intro as of now. (I'm changing it to an intro of FAST rather than NUCES). Waqas.usman 08:43, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Major reorganizationz
I have reorganized (or would it be better to say organized) the article with a better intro and the rest under the headings of History and Software competitions etc. The article still needs improvement (the text under competitions needs refinement). Feel free to refine or reorganize it, but please don't write under some appropriate heading rather than dumping text (as was done before). Waqas.usman 09:41, 11 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I changed the order of the campuses to reflect an alphabetic one. Another scheme can be to order them historically. But it's not an important issue. Secondly, as stated in the user guides of Wikipedia, users are encouraged to contribute even if it means throwing data as in a dump. We are here to organize it and should drop by time-to-time to check it. User:yasirniazkhan 17:18, 02 August 2006 (UTC)

PEC?
NUCES-FAST has not been granted PEC accreditation for its engineering programs. I have removed the entry.

Please see this document:

http://www.pec.org.pk/Downloadables/Meetings/Acc.doc

Items 9, 12, 16 and 17 refer to the Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi and Peshawar campuses of NUCES-FAST. All of them have the following entry:

"The university is advised to address weak areas as mentioned in the visit report and inform PEC. A revisit will be carried out subject to submission of new AC-1 form."

So, clearly, NUCES-FAST cannot have its wikipedia page mentioning that it has been accredited by Pakistan Engineering Council. It would be misleading.

There is another "NASCON"
Which stands for National Association of Senior Concerns. It could be considered as conservative version of AARP. This is a newer organization than AARP, and not as widely known, but it is growing. We may have to consider writing an article about it as well as creating a disambiguation page. People are bound to be looking for the "other" NASCON Brian Pearson 01:19, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:OSAF logo.svg
Image:OSAF logo.svg 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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Image copyright problem with Image:Crulp logo.gif
The image Image:Crulp 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.

The following images also have this problem:
