This page needs to be edited so it does not sound like a Gutenberg College brochure. Flixthecat85 17:46, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I just deleted most of it. The article needs to be rewritten from scratch. Using someone's own words and not material copied from the college website, please. Katr67 02:16, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am a former student of Gutenberg and I rewrote the article in my own words. Sarahcculver (talk) 17:05, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Number of students

Currently, at the top of the Gutenberg College wikipedia article, it says "Founded in 1994, the school has 75 students" and at the side template it says Students 48 Which is correct? What is the reliable source for either? Thanks. 63.247.160.139 (talk) 08:01, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it's only 22, according to here. I fixed that in the article. Jsayre64 (talk) 17:18, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This looks to be a perennial problem. I will adjust, and try to remember to recheck in future. ragity (talk) 05:32, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As Jsayre64 did, I used the number from the college faq, considered a primary source. I'm not sure we have an alternative. WP prefers, as an encyclopedia, to use secondary, or even tertiary, sources, in other words, info which has been published in an unaffiliated, established, reliable source. If someone can suss out one, please do. I.think it is pertinant that the school is so tiny, or else I would be tempted to eliminate the number entirely. In the body of the article, a different, less recent source gave "about 50" for the student body, so I just changed that statement to "less than 50," and left it at that." ragity (talk) 14:07, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request for updates

An impartial editor has reviewed the proposed edit(s) and asked the editor with a conflict of interest to go ahead and make the suggested changes.

In infobox, change title of "Dr. Eliot Grasso" from "Provost" to "Vice President," number of full-time "Academic Staff" to 5 and number of part-time to 3, and URL of website from "www.gutenberg.edu/home" to "www.gutenberg.edu". These are updates to facts about college.^[1]

Change "Curriculum" heading to "Academics", which is more typical for a college like Gutenberg. (See e.g. pages for New Saint Andrews College and Christendom College.)

Under "External Links", remove link to McKenzie Study Center, which is now defunct; redundant second link to "Biblical Foundation Statement"; and broken link to "State of Oregon Office of Degree Authorization". Rename "Gutenberg College" link to "Gutenberg College official website" or simply "Official site" a la pages for New Saint Andrews and Christendom and move it to top of list. Finally, either remove link to "Gutenberg College Biblical Foundation Statement"—preferred; probably not salient enough to highlight—or include correct link (https://gutenberg.edu/about/biblical-foundation-statement/).
