KSU
Please see my comments at Talk:Kent State University. The statement of "second-largest" has an actual source that says "second-largest", but the "third-largest" statement appears to be drawn by simply looking at Cincinnati's enrollment numbers (which are still showing Fall 2010) and comparing them with KSU's Spring numbers. Spring numbers are typically lower than Fall, so if comparisons are made, they need to be from the same time period. Unless an article has been written that makes a statement about the size rankings, it's safer to keep the current source in since there is nothing yet that contradicts it. While I don't fault your attention to detail, in cases like this I don't think it's a bad idea to limit how often enrollment is updated (like once a year), rather than at every semester change. --JonRidinger (talk) 20:50, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * While the reference in the Kent State article says the numbers were based off UC's "preliminary count", the UC website (used as a source in the University of Cincinnati article) lists the same number (41,357) as their "2010-2011 enrollment", meaning it was confirmed. --JonRidinger (talk) 22:31, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
