Conflict of Interest[edit]

It is viewed by wikipedia as a conflict of interest for the International Affairs Office to contribute to this article directly. Parts of the article read like a press release; this is one common problem with conflict of interest editing. It is not entirely clear whether the many recent edits are related to POSTECH but it sure seems like it. Gabriel.c.drummond.cole (talk) 01:13, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]


More information[edit]

This page is currently under construction by the International Affairs Office at POSTECH. If you have any questions or suggestions, please email Peter Lee (peterlee@postech.ac.kr).

Thank you for your continued support.

Thing(s) that we need to consider for later revisions[edit]

  • Any distinguished alumni or faculty?
  • Special mention about the Pohang Light Source?
  • How do we view the school's founder Hogil Kim?
  • POSTECH has a leading edge in life science. How do we go about explaining this?
  • How's physics doing at POSTECH?
  • Most of the introduction section is devoted to rankings. All the rankings except one or two most notable ones would better be listed in a separate section.

Revision History[edit]

December 12, 2004 (KST) Finally added the school enblem image.


December 11, 2004 (KST) Created a new article under Pohang University of Science and Technology

  • The entry Postech now redirects to Pohang University of Science and Technology. This is kind of nice, because the URL line shows Postech and the article is under the title Pohang University of Science and Technology.
  • A kind Australian (or New Zealand?) janitor added a category South Korean universities to the article.


December 10, 2004 (KST) Entry Postech created.

  • The proper acronym POSTECH was not used because people somehow hate a long acronym in all capitals.
  • Some kind person added the Postech article was a stub.
  • Changed entries on list of Universities in South Korea and Universities starting with P for Pohang University of Science and Technology and added links accordingly.
  • Some kind person changed the list of universities so that Pohang University of Science and Technology points to Postech.


How this thing started[edit]

There was a short discussion on POSB pointing to Wikipedia entries of South Korean Universties. Then some guy just said hey, MIT's got a great entry, why's that we don't have any? So I thought.. hmm.. why not? Anyway that's how this thing has started.

The handle Moosattack was created just for creating this entry (so that I could hide my IP info). I don't even know how the markup command goes in Wikipedia. So creating an entry will be a slow and tedious process.

Fair use rationale for Image:POSTECH emblem.png[edit]

Image:POSTECH emblem.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
