Dean Gibbons

Note that his previous entry,James Gibbons, links to a cardinal of than name. If you want to remove the red-link you will have to create an article for him. Robsavoie (talk) 03:33, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge performed

I'm not very experienced with merging but went ahead. I'd want someone who's familiar with merging to take a look. X (talk) 17:59, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reversing the merge

I am taking the liberty of reversing the merge and restoring the School of Engineering to a freestanding article. The reason: I discovered by accident that the main Stanford University page contains the entire 16,000-byte contents of the School of Engineering and School of Electrical Engineering pages, in the middle of what is already a very large article (over 200,000 bytes). This is unspeakable bloat. No comparable university has anything like that and Stanford shouldn't either. I can't imagine what the discussants at the AfD were thinking, but they clearly did not look at either article before !voting "merge". See my comments at Talk:Stanford University.
