Purdue University article
Hi Moon motif,

I'm an incoming freshman at Purdue University and I was looking at the edit history for Purdue University.

I don't necessarily agree with these edits from other editors (not you), want to take a look?

Purdue University: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia

The entire body of the "Organization and administration" section was deleted.

I also don't agree with whoever deleted "It has been ranked as among the best public universities in the United States by major institutional rankings, and is renowned for its engineering program." from the leading paragraph.

Thoughts?

 * Hi there! Thanks for saying hi and congrats on getting accepted to Purdue :>
 * I also thought the "Organization and administration" section being deleted was a bit weird. However, I'm not sure if the information deleted could ever be properly sourced. I did some very quick cursory searching for any sources online about how Purdue's administration works and I couldn't find anything but I very well could have missed something. I noticed that the information deleted was from an edit back in 2004. The main article that the section references, Purdue University system, doesn't support the information in the section and also has its own problems with citation, with most edits in 2006. It seems that paragraph was written back when Wikipedia's source verification was laxer and, although it would be better if the information could be verified, I don't think there are any sources that would back the prose.
 * The sentence deleted from the lede is a bit interesting. Since there's a section on Purdue's rankings, it could make some sense to have a sentence that mentions its rankings, but I personally feel its wording is dubious. I looked at articles on Ivy League universities and I found that 3/8 (Columbia, Harvard, Dartmouth) explicitly mention its prestige in its lede. The only featured article on a university in WikiProject Higher education is Pomona College which also does make explicit reference to its prestige. However, if we look at other public colleges that are similarly ranked to Purdue (UIUC, UW Madison, UWash, Rutgers, Ohio State), they don't make mention of being highly ranked in their ledes. Personally, I don't think it makes sense for the article's lede to include the sentence about it being highly ranked. Also, the citation the line references only looks at Purdue's engineering school; its overall US News ranking is much lower.
