Talk:University of Marburg

Naming
I am confused about the naming. In English it's commonly known as the University of Marburg. The proper German is Philipps-Universität Marburg. So, why isn't it one of them? I suppose the English translation of the German isn't a bad idea... but, is this the proper naming convention?

You're right! The head should read: University of Marburg (Philipps-Universität Marburg). 1 March, 2006.

Nazi period, GDR

Include Adolf Fick?
Adolf Fick (of Fick's laws of diffusion) probably ought to be included in the list of famous scientists, as his doctorate was from Marburg. See 129.105.69.165 (talk) 17:52, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Rankings?
The rankings heading isn't working. ANy ideas anyone?
