Anglia Ruskin University
Hi, I noticed that you've been improving the Anglia Ruskin University article, which is good. However I've been reverting the change you've been trying to make to the reference for the Vice-Chancellor, David Tidmarsh, in the infobox near the top of the page. This is simply because moving the 'Prof.' title inside the wikilink syntax would create a red link to a page that wouldn't conform to Wikipedia's naming conventions. It might be that you are trying to achieve something else, in which case I would be glad to help. If you just don't want the 'Prof.' title to be visible, then all that is needed is to delete that bit of the text. -- Solipsist 12:59, 28 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for your message and for everything you've done on the Anglia Ruskin page - it looks good. As I'm the new Corporate Communications Manager as the University I've been adding generic info to the page.  As I'm learning about Wikipedia as I go along (!) I'd apprecaite your comments / suggestions.  On another note, I really like the image of the Cambridge Campus, is this yours?  (Andrea1000 09:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC))
 * Nice to see you've got an account. And I'm happy to help with advice about editing Wikipedia, although in truth I don't know much about Anglia Ruskin University. The main thing to bear in mind is to avoid sailing too close on the marketing promotion side. Such things tend to be frowned upon on Wikipedia. The overall intention is just to write a comprehensive and accurate encyclopedia entry.
 * Oh and yes, the picture is one of my photos. I'm glad you like it, but you really have User:Youngamerican to thank. He is the one with a close interest in the article - I think he may be an alumnus. It was his request for a photo that I was responding to. -- Solipsist 21:00, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I am not technically an alumnus, but I read/studied history there for a semester (Spring 2000) through a study abroad program at my university in the USA. I really enjoyed my classes and the academic environment at the school, even the class where the lecturer thought that I was a slaveholding racist due to my possession of what she thought was a Southern US accent (its actually central Appalachian) and the fact that I wasn't a Marxist.  young  american  (ahoy-hoy) 01:52, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
