Your edit on List of oldest universities in continuous operation‎
I accept your second reason. But need more info before I accept the first one. Third reason does not apply, as I cited that link only to validate the fact that Old Nanalda University was established during 5th century, 427 AD to be precise, as per few sources and not to confuse that those two universities are totally separate entity. Nonetheless, the information that Nalanda University was established long before anything in Europe or elsewhere, but subsequently destroyed by foreign invaders. - Jay Jay62728 (talk) 17:59, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

Hello. I have reverted your edit for multiple reasons: A) the ancient institution of learning in Nalanda wasn't a university by the mainstream definition of it, the definition we use on Wikipedia (see University), and thus doesn't qualify for that reason, B) the list is for universities that have been in continuous operation since founded, just as the name of the article says, and the old school at Nalanda ceased operations well over 800 years ago, and C) the new Nalanda University, that you linked to, was established in 2014 and has nothing but the name and the approximate location in common with the old school at Nalanda, in spite of attempts to imply a connection between the two.
