Hello, experts.
I took pity on this University because it was listed in the non-existent popular destinations and I knew Zeal would have lots of info: over 70 page profiles, as it turned out.
I hope one of you can make the different paragraphs look the same: that first one would be better in the same typeface as the second and with shorter lines.

Golly, that response was rick! I'll study the coding. Thanks.

This article should be distinguished from Colorado State University-Pueblo. Maybe a brief disambiguation message at the top of the article?

Call me naive, but shouldn't there be some sort of mention about the academics in an article about an university?

One could probably just follow the link provided to the official CSU page. --Danheretic 13:15, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I'd suggest perhaps something along the lines of what we did for University of Arizona? There are lots of links to things hosted in static locations on the university server (e.g. colleges and departments). Overall, this article is actually quite nice - just a little more filling-out info makes for a "complete" article. --ABQCat 03:41, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] advertising

This article has too many words that make it read like an advertisement. So I have placed an advertisement tag on it. If you have any questions, contact me. I may or may not start work on fixing the article in the next few days (some of it will be chopped because I know nothing about CSU but it cannot sit there reading like an advertisement) Guroadrunner 02:53, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

These are the problem edits. What upsets me even more is that they cut out the introductory paragraph. I am a student at CSU, but this degree of self-praise is in very bad taste. I left a message on their talk page.--R. M. 345 13:56, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

I've gone through and removed a lot of advertising - just straight cut it out. Unfortunately, that means many pieces of the article were thrown out, but the article now is more in line with the NPOV and no-advertising rules. -- Guroadrunner 13:35, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
