COI declaration
Much of the information on this page needs to be edited as they are either out of date or not really relevant to the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy (the sections about the AHEC, for instance). I'm planning to do a major overhaul of the page in the coming days.
Regarding the note about the major contributor having close ties with the school: I do work at the school, which is why I knew that much of the old information in the article was incorrect, outdated, or not actually relevant to the school. However, if you examine the content I've contributed, I think it's pretty obvious all of the information provided are facts (research dollar amount, programs offered, name of buildings, etc.).

- I stubified this. it was sourced almost entirely from the school's website and there was lots of copyvio. needs to be rebuilt from independent sources. i removed the COI tag after stubifying. Jytdog (talk) 13:22, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

Jytdog deletions of viable and referenced content
Unsure how my edits were mirroring the schools website when they were referenced with non-unc websites and mirrored other school of pharmacy wiki pages. In the it history appears as though you have repeatedly truncated content on this page, in most cases without justification. I would prefer not to report you for disruptive editing. SithLordSparklePants (talk) 01:37, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
- I understand from your userpage that you are a UNC alum. That means that you have an external connection, and have a conflict of interest in Wikipedia. I'll leave a note at your talk page about management of conflicts of interest in Wikipedia, and add the "connected" tag above. btw please do read the note at the bottom of the mustard-colored box at the top of this page, along with WP:BOOSTER and WP:PROMO - this page cannot become a proxy for the school's website -- and making website-like content from a directory is just doing that, less directly.

- What does this edit note,
COI was added to talk page and links to Nature Index were removed since other editors viewed them as advertising rather than referencing
mean? How is that a reason restore promotional content? (real question) Jytdog (talk) 02:54, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

- The context needed for readers to follow along is missing in the sections Divisions, Centers, and Degrees, per #7 of WP:NOTADIRECTORY. This context might be clearer if the information was placed as prose.
- The list of deans would work, but it contains only 2 pieces of information — the date ranges and the names — meaning a simple list, rather than a table, would work better. (See UCSF School of Pharmacy.)
Also, section headers in the edit request proposal are not necessary, as they conflict with the talk page's own headers and needlessly complicate the table of contents.
When ready to proceed with these changes, either alter the template's parameter from ans=yes to ans=no or insert a new template under a level 2 heading. Thank you! spintendo 10:44, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
- @SithLordSparklePants: Please make your edits here on the talk page only. Editing of the main article is strongly discouraged. Please read my suggestions above carefully, there are changes to the request that should be done here on the talk page before anything can be implemented. I will place the Deans into a simple list for you. spintendo 11:10, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
- @Spintendo:Thanks User:Spintendo, sorry for the missunderstanding, I was unclear about your directions. I will try and work the bulleted lists into prose, but will not be able to do so immediately. Thanks for your time with this SithLordSparklePants (talk) 11:24, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
