Template talk:Ohio State University

Tasks:
 * 1) Better logo with the correct colors!
 * 2) Decide upon correct pages.
 * 3) Create necessary pages.
 * 4) Fix text colors (white probably).

The colors are not "scarlet" and "gray" per se, though the university does provide color specifications. Rkevins82 22:48, 13 June 2006 (UTC) Edited Rkevins82 23:10, 13 June 2006 (UTC)


 * It looks very good. One thing is that the blue links and text wash out against the red background, making it very hard to see. Maybe a lighter, brighter shade of red would solve the problem.


 * You have the John Glenn school listed twice. I'd add the Mershon Center. It's one of the universities more prestigious departments or centers, and it does have its own wikipedia article. The Hilander Research Library also has a wikipedia article. If we're going to have the Big Ear, we should also include the Mount Graham telescope, which is actually more relevent these days.--Sam Harmon 17:59, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Template too big
This template is way too big. I'm on a 1024x768 monitor (used by a majority of web surfers), and this template just about takes up my entire browser screen. I have been redesigning several university's templates to one standard and I make convert this one soon. Hopefully there will not be any complaints. To see the style I'm going to use, check out University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, University of Texas at Austin and University of Michigan.↔NMajdan •talk 18:02, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Standards for inclusion to this template? (Under "Research"): Add Ohio Super Computer Center?
Hi everyone,

Should Ohio Supercomputer Center be added to the template under Research? It's true that it is organizationally and fundamentally not "a part" of OSU, but it'd say it's about as related to OSU as American Folklore Society, which is on here (and under Student Life for that matter).

To be clear, I'm not trying to play the whatabout or gotcha game -- I'm more curious as to whether there are any standards here for inclusion on the template, and if so how we can reconcile that apparent discrepancy (eg remove one, add the other, change the standards). Thoughts?

Anime Punch!
Does it still make sense to include Anime Punch! in this template? There doesn't seem to be much of a connection in the article to OSU besides that OSU hosted the first conference. ChillyBlanket (talk) 20:57, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

THE Ohio State University
Please note that the title of this page is incorrect as it is "The Ohio State University" not "Ohio State University" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bwurgler (talk • contribs) 16:25, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Unsurprisingly, it looks like this question comes up fairly often and occasionally there have been strong pushes to move the page to the "The Ohio State University" title. Some of these discussions can be viewed at Talk:Ohio State University.
 * I would recommend reading a couple of those and then you can decide for yourself if you would like to nominate the page for a move. Or you can just keep an eye on the page and join in on the debate the next go-around:) Cheers! DB 1729 talk 05:56, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
