Khallikote University
I reverted your edits because two unrelated institutions should have two articles, not one which combines both. If another Khallikote University was established, you can start a separate article about it. --Muhandes (talk) 20:11, 27 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Just noticed the ad https://sambadepaper.com/imageview_350_196188_4_71_17-08-2022_4_i_1_sf.html and the page https://kuu.ac.in/.
 * So a Khallikote Unitary university now exists and is functional. Moreover, it inherits the history of Khallikote autonomous college, which was the original wikpedia web page name. So creating another page for Khallikote Unitary university does not make sense.
 * I think what happened was: Khallikote cluster university was created involving 5 colleges an then was dissolved and merged with Berhampur university and Khallikote unitary university was created as an upgradation of one of those colleges, the Khallikote autonomous college. The exact order this maneuvering happened is not clear and the news reporting has been confusing.
 * But the fact that this page was originally the page for Khallikote autonomous college and now that Khallikote Unitary university inherits the history of Khallikote autonomous college, this page should be about the Khallikote Unitary university. More edits may be necessary to clear this. Cbaral (talk) 15:00, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I see where you are going but this is potentially controversial, so please follow WP:PCM. In the future, when you return to a discussion after nine months and you wish someone to see your answer, I suggest you ping them. --Muhandes (talk) 10:52, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Also, this is state government university. So no one is trying to hijack anything. Please try to understand the history and reflect it accurately. Cbaral (talk) 05:05, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Let me try one more time.
 * Look for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AKhallikote_Autonomous_College.
 * It get forwarded to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Khallikote_University
 * Why?
 * Because Khallikote_Autonomous_College became Khallikote_University
 * But now Khallikote Unitary University has inherited the history of Khallikote_Autonomous_College.
 * You can check that from the web page of Khallikote Unitary University https://kuu.ac.in/, in particular, https://kuu.ac.in/history/.
 * With that background, do you think, Khallikote Unitary University should have a new page or should it inherit the page of
 * hallikote_Autonomous_College which is now the page of Khallikote_University? Cbaral (talk) 04:54, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Also, please look at the page https://kuu.ac.in/, especially the second flashing image. You will see the name "Khallikote University" in the gate, while the overlay is saying "Khallikote Unitary University".
 * What does that imply?
 * My understanding is that it is the same physical entity, and the government did some confusing maneuvering, which can be summarized as follows:
 * Khallikote autonomous college (has a history going back to 1856) + 4 other colleges => converted to Khallikote University in 2015 => Made Defunct, the five colleges reverted to Berhampur University (in 2021)
 * Khallikote autonomous college (has a history going back to 1856) => Khallikote Unitary University (in 2021).
 * Key question: In such as situation, where should the wiki page of Khallikote autonomous college (has a history going back to 1856) redirected to? Currently it is redirected to the wiki page of Khallikote University.
 * That is wrong. It should be redirected to a wikipage on Khallikote Unitary University.
 * Since such a page does not exist; We could make a wikipage on Khallikote Unitary University and do the correct redirection. (Option 1)
 * Alternatively, we could redirect the wiki page for Khallikote University to Khallikote Unitary University and explain in that article the complete history mentioned above. (Option 2)
 * I was trying Option 2, but it is also fine, if we do Option 1. I.e., create a new wiki page on on Khallikote Unitary University and do the correct redirection of Khallikote autonomous college to that page. Cbaral (talk) 05:56, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but you misunderstand the procedure. I did not say that the move is inappropriate, I said it is potentially controversial. You should therefore follow procedure, which I quoted: Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves. Please follow that link to the instructions. And again, a ping is suggested (that blue line is a wikilink. Follow it to the pinging instructions). --Muhandes (talk) 06:45, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
