The references in this article aren't "clickable". The correction to the syntax isn't obvious to me. I am hoping someone more versed in wiki formatting can fix this.

How can factual, updated information be added to this article?
Hello, I'm the web editor at UC Irvine School of Law. This article has done a good job of documenting our school's origins, but now that the school is nearing the end of its first semester, the article seems a bit dated. We've had a lot of news coverage since then, documenting Dean Chemerinsky's vision for a different type of curriculum, the hiring of our founding faculty, the free tuition for the Inaugural Class and the grand opening of the school Aug. 24.

How can we get this chronological information about the school added to this article without being stopped by "Conflict of Interest" warnings? Can we send the information to the editor of this original article? Or may I add the information myself, since I have plenty of news articles to cite as sources?

I look forward to your reply. --Ucilaw web (talk) 22:33, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

Student at UCI Law Declaring Conflict
I have made some edits to this page recently. I should have disclosed my conflict sooner. I've explained in more detail on my user page my reasons why I believe I can avoid WP:COI violations as well as other violations of policy. I also explained how I believe I can do that. Although I retired I former account which had several thousand edits on it, I still feel I'm familiar with most policies. If I do violate a policy, please let me know.

This statement is MUCH more detailed on my user page. Again, I ask you to click here to read that statement before criticizing me. Thank you for reading.--Policy Reformer(c) 21:41, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

Edit Warring
Hi James,

You seem to be engaged in an edit war with me. I cannot comprehend why you are erasing all of the updates I put in to the UCI page. You seem to be trolling.

The information is OUTDATED. People use wikipedia to learn more about a certain school, how are they supposed to lean more if you have info from 2011?

How are the edits "unduly promotional"? I am simply updating the information. As for the formatting, please let me know why it is incorrect.
 * Accusing me of trolling is a violation of WP:AGF. If you wish to update the page, you must provide reliable secondary sources and take care to not remove critical information. Also, you must discuss changes before implementing them to gain a consensus. --Regards, James(talk/contribs) 21:09, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

James,

I have not removed any information. I have just added relevant, updated info. All the sources I have used are reliable and secondary. If you see one that is not, please let me know.

I am simply trying to improve the page with updated, relevant information. Isn't that the entire point of being able to edit wikipedia pages? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lawstudent2016 (talk • contribs) 21:41, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Edits
The edits are as follow:

UCI Law does not have 200-something students and 20-something faculty. This info is from 2011. The current number stands at 338 and 81, respectively.

Sisk's faculty rankings have been updated in September 2015. The page needs to reflect that.

The newest US News rankings have been released. UCI moved up 2 places, this needs to be stated in the page. It has also been ranked in other areas, again, this needs to be stated.

UCI's placement in federal clerkships has been updated too. The data was released last year.

Employment data is again, unsurprisingly, outdated. It reflects 2013 info, when the 2014 info has long been released.
