Randy Walker[edit]
There is no reason to specify him as the football coach seeing as it's listed under the football section. --Majorpayne27 15:21, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
Welsh-Ryan Rowdies[edit]
Hi. I've been putting together pages for each of the Big Ten's basketball student sections and was wondering if someone would be interested in expanding and maintaining that of the Welsh-Ryan Rowdies. Thanks! --BroadSt Bully 14:11, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Merge[edit]
I'm completely against the merging of these two articles. There is enough football history at NW to create an entire article, and the athletics can fill out it's own article as well. One can use the {{main}} to direct from the brief info of football in the athletics article to the football one. This is becoming standardized with the {{WikiProject College football}} to have pages like this for all schools. MECU≈talk 04:24, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Northwestern si 1995.jpg[edit]
Image:Northwestern si 1995.jpg 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.

Women's Lacrosse[edit]
Women's Lacrosse should have its own page, as it is one of the best and most dominant programs in all of the NCAA. The Northwestern Lacrosse program is a dynasty in College Sports. They have won the last 4 NCAA championships. Any disagreement?

NCAA unofficial team titles[edit]
Consider the following, and tell me why Northwestern's 4 "unofficial" NCAA swimming team titles are not included in the university's NCAA team totals, when for other sports, all such tabulations of a school's totals do include the unofficial team titles.

- The same issue was raised at Talk:Michigan Wolverines. I suggest that discussion be consolidated there. JohnInDC (talk) 12:27, 30 May 2015 (UTC)
COI/COPYVIO[edit]
The current (May 2022) version of this article was substantively expanded by an apparently COI editor (during early 2021) using content verbatim copy-pasted from the subject's own websites (as indicated by copyvio detector). Unless this promotional and COPYVIO content can be tempered or re-phrased (to address the COI, COPYVIO, PROMO, ATTRIBUTEPOV issues that result), then it just needs to be removed. Wholescale.
