POV
Mais uma vez a tua lata atinge niveis inqualificaveis. Como ousar dizer que os outros são parciais quando tu é que o és?

A Universidade de Coimbra a mais prestigiada em Portugal? o ISCTE e A UBI também são bast prestigiadas? Tás a brincar ou a falar sério? Aquele artigo de educação merece um grande POV. Preconceito contra o politécnico e ensino privado. O Não-ensino universitário o que é meu amigo? Em que lei aparece isso? Nas estatisticas web ou no JN? Formar técnicos? Os politécnicos tem o objectivo de formar especialistas profissionais e não técnicos (talvez fosse assim há uns tempos, mas não o é hj em dia). Porque raio fui eu estudar, é que antes de entrar já era técnico. Tu tás é a brincar com isto. Só não pus lá uma tag de POV porque reconheço o trabalho que tiveste. Já agora, a tua universidade é tão requisitada, que no meu curso no ano em que entrei, a UC ficou a meio da tabela, e o meu em 2º ex-quo com o IST. A UC é mm requisitadissima entre os estudantes, que hoje é vista como uma univ. de indole regional. Em que áreas a UC é prestigiada? Em engenharias não é. Em arquitectura não é. Em direito já não é. Gostava de saber... O que estou a dizer é que a UC não seja prestigiada, é bastante, mas não é a mais. -Pedro 13:00, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

Onde está escrito que a Univ. Coimbra é a mais prestigiada? Se está, a Mais prestigiada diz-me onde que eu próprio retiro. Ao dizeres que essa universidade é regional só revelas o teu total desconhecimento da realidade e a tua mais profunda parcialidade, o que é bem patente no teu estilo de escrita propagandístico. Quanto ao facciosismo que apregoas, ele não existe. Tudo o que afirmo sabes que é realidade, apesar de não ser politicamente correcto afirmá-lo. Contudo, as estatísticas de médias, numerus clausus, empregabilidade, qualidade do corpo docente, investigação e pesquisa, publicações, avaliações feitas ao ensino superior (que depois não são publicitadas nem geram qq medida) etc. estão ai para prová-lo. A opinião geral das pessoas também reconhece a clara distinção que existe entre os vários subsistemas, a menos que tenham que enveredar por um que não seja o seu favorito. Não podes chamar preconceito à percepção que uma sociedade tem das coisas, porque ela é fruto da observação quotidiana da realidade. Tentares passar a ideia de que o ensino politécnico é exactamente igual ao universitário, e que só difere no nome, é muito errado. E esqueceres o passado recente desse subsistema de ensino, que somente ultimamente tem sofrido diversas alterações com vista a diminuir algumas das suas diferenças formais, também não é imparcial. Se quiseres discutir médias de acesso, avaliações à qualidade de ensino e de investigação das instituições, e inclusivamente exemplos de casos concretos de estudantes de diferentes subsistemas de ensino ainda que da mesma área de estudo, poderemos fazê-lo de modo a que possamos tirar as devidas elações.

P.S. - Quem começou a destruir trabalho (artigos) feito previamente não fui eu. E digo-te, isso é o que mais me irrita porque é impossível alguém olhar para um artigo e não concordar com a totalidade desse artigo, mesmo que tenha pontos de vista completamente diferentes. Inclusivamente tenho-me abstido de reverter ou reformular imensas coisas que tens escrito em vários artigos, porque a minha política não é destruir, mas também não concordo que se crie uma imagem distorcida das coisas.

List of Portuguese companies
Pá, tu importas-te de não apagar empresas da lista só porque nunca ouviste falar delas? Apagares algumas subsidiárias ainda vá (a não ser que sejam a Vista Alegre - eu vou fundir esse artigo com outro), agora apagares o Grupo SGA inteiro é que eu não percebo. Tens algum diferendo com o Pereira Coutinho ou quê? --Pc13 12:43, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:LocalCoimbra.png
Thanks for uploading Image:LocalCoimbra.png. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

 * I found the Image:LocalCoimbra.png on Coimbra's article in Portuguese Wikipedia. Link: http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coimbra


 * Now they have another image (Imagem:LocalCoimbra.svg - in Portuguese Wikipedia), but it is very similar. If you remove the old one (Image:LocalCoimbra.png), place the new Imagem:LocalCoimbra.svg in substitution for Coimbra's article current image in English. Thank you.

 * Thanks for the tip! The one on the Portuguese site is from the commons, and is freely licensed, so I replaced ours with that one like you said, the old one (which was smaller and greyscale) will get deleted, but we have the better one now! :D - cohesion &#9733; talk 19:43, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Untagged image
An image you uploaded, Image:CBR.png, was tagged with the coatofarms copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as seal. If you have any questions, ask them at Media copyright questions. -- 16:59, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:CFUCoimbra.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:CFUCoimbra.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.
