Questionable

Looking at fora where this school is discussed, I found a lot of very argumentative stuff. It seems the school has a questionable status. Hopefully, some-one will be willing to wade through all the shouting on both sides and come up with a decent article.!!!!

Further to this topic, why does the website for a Costa Rican university have a .pl (Poland) country code? WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 14:46, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actuallay the University runs many national programs outside Costa Rica So, you can find the University in the next sites

www.unem.cr UNEM www.unem.edu.pl UNEM www.unem.edu.uy UNEM www.unem.international UNEM www.unem.edu/internacional/ UNEM

Dubious fact

The article mentions that UNEM is listed in the IAU's Directory of Higher Education, but a search of the IAU's website does not list such a publication. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 15:35, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You are Wrong Wikian61 http://www.whed.net/detail_institution.php?id=17738 The school its properly listed — Preceding unsigned comment added by Porscheclub (talk • contribs) 17:36, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WHED Portal The Portal. The IAU WHED Portal (www.whed.net) is the International Association of Universities’ (IAU) latest reference tool on higher education systems, degrees and institutions around the world. Basic access allows all users to access the information contained in the portal...

IAU WHED UNESCO

The cited page does not have a title of Directory of Higher Education, and a search for such a title at the IAU site shows that no such title is found. A search for International Handbook of Universities leads to the WHED site, but we shouldn't list two titles when there is only on actual source.

Edit-warring

Two editors, PolandMEC and UNEMCR, are waging an edit war here over the correct address for this "university". I suggest that as a compromise, in the absence of editor consensus, no web address for the institution should be shown in this article. It's clear that there is more than one party attempting to exploit the name of the institution, but not at all clear whether either of those parties has any authority to do so; indeed, it remains far from clear that this institution exists at all. According to Whois, the domain www.unem.edu is registered to Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica, Apartado 12640-1000, San Jose, COSTA RICA, while the domain unem.edu.pl is hosted in Scottsdale, Arizona, which as far as I know is neither in Costa Rica nor in Poland. I don't really care which, if either, of the two editors is right. I do intend to take this to WP:EWN if there's any more edit-warring.

I agree that menatime there is no clear definition of the accurate website none should be mentioned.

I already offer prove I am the copyright holder for UNEM and Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica at the Copyright office in the library of the congress.

Greeting from San Jose I am a proud student at UNEM The University actually is listed in UNESCO under www.unem.edu.pl If editors do not like a polish domain, you should use national domain, www.unem.cr Actually the article injury my background with no logical reason. Please fix it according to PolandMEC request and last edition.170.51.65.55 (talk) 19:10, 17 December 2014 (UTC)Juan Cruz 170.51.65.55 (talk) 19:10, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not done The issue of which website actually represents the university is at the heart of the controversy which got this page protected in the first place. The requested edit facility is only to be used for non-controversial edits. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 13:24, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A question for proud student Juan Cruz, 170.51.65.55: why does your message "from San Jose" actually come from Uruguay? Does it seem odd to you that that is the same place that honest student Pablo Lopez Mena, 179.24.179.198, also comes from? Or that much of the recent edit-warring in the article has been by Uruguayan IPs? Or that the copyright claimant on the irrelevant certificate posted on this page by PolandMEC is also a citizen of Uruguay? Do you know what we mean by SOCKPUPPETRY?

Request Edition for Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica

I already sent the email to either permissions-commons@wikimedia.org and permissions-en@wikimedia.org I also mentioned should be communicated to you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Mike_V As mentioned Earlier I am the Copyright holder for UNEM and Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica To use the file in a wiki, copy this text into a page:

Furthermore, I own the COPYRIGHT for UNEM and Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica. Please provide an email where I can send you propper documents info@unem.edu.pl I hereby strongly request that the article must mention my website www.unem.edu.pl or if you want a local domain www.unem.cr Please remove bad publicity ASAPPolandMEC (talk) 00:19, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's not clear what a copyright certificate has to do with the issue of which website actually represents this university. So the US Copyright Office issued a copyright for a work titled Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica (presumably the work covered is the actual website). That doesn't make it the legitimate website of the university; it only makes it a copyrighted artifact. This information has no bearing on the controversy at hand.

What I am supposed to present if a Copyright certificate with 9 years old expedition, mentioning POLAND (Domain dot EDU DOT PL) meaning www.unem.edu.pl is NOT GOOD ENOUGHT for you???

I see no reason why been myself the only side (part) that is willing to provide documents, as the Copyright certificate, and mention the IAU WHED listing whed.net/detail_institution.php?id=17738 you are not willing to edit the page for Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica. Furthermore, the other part never provide a single argument. And I see no neutrallity but you protected the article keeping the edition made by UNEMCR. If you look the Article history, it always since the begining point to www.unem.edu.pl I must request that if you are not willing to edit, please earse the whole article, as it was before proposed to be deleted. What I am supposed to present if a Copyright certificate as the one I already presented https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Copyright_Universidad_Empresarial_de_Costa_Rica.jpg with 9 years old expedition, mentioning POLAND (Domain dot EDU DOT PL) meaning www.unem.edu.pl is NOT GOOD ENOUGHT for you???

May be a diploma mill

The Costa Rica Star says it's a diploma mill: "The demand for more university degrees among Costa Rica’s workforce has resulted in institutions such as the infamous Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica (UNEM), which has been embroiled in a series of diploma mill scandals involving students that paid money for a degree that they did not earn through studies or academic competence. This is a school that has granted PhD degrees to professionals from the United States and Germany as well." [1] That's already in the article. Then there's the PhD thesis mentioned in the blog linked from that article, which attempts to list and categorize every institution of higher learning in Costa Rica. It has the statement "The Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica (UNEM) was founded in 1997 as a special-focus institution in business, and reported no graduates in 2007. These institutions have not been included in the study as neither enrolled new students in 2010; thus, these institutions have been classified as inactive" The thesis also lists the address and phone number of each institution. For UNEM, the info is "UNEM - Phone number: Información no disponible. Address: Del Colegio de Abogados, 200 Oeste, 100 Norte y 50 Oeste. Residencial Montealegre, casa 2213. Zapote (Estuvo en este lugar pero actualmente se desconoce su ubicación)" Those are walking directions from a bus stop to a house overlooking a park.[2] John Nagle (talk) 04:04, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

The next data was the right and accurate information, in the Wiki Article, until somoene with NO documents to support his claim, start editing. Finalley editor protected the article with the wrong information. I already supply Copyright certificate, link to UNESCO WHED IAU list, and everything I underline, and provide was ignored and dennied, meanwhile the other party has present NONE document or valid argument. I urge editor to restore the article, as follows:

Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica, also known as UNEM or Business University of Costa Rica,^[1] is a private university in the city of San José, Costa Rica. It is authorized and accredited by the Consejo Nacional de Enseñanza Superior Universitaria Privada, the national council of higher education of Costa Rica,^[2] to award undergraduate degrees in accounting and business administration, and master's degrees in business administration.^[3]
