This institution is now defunct? edit

So says the Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/jan/18/simona-mangiante-trump-russia-joseph-mifsud-george-papadopoulos -Zekelayla (talk) 11:29, 18 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

If it ever existed! Unfortunately, the citation you suggest says "Soon after Papadopoulos’s indictment and guilty plea became public, Mifsud vanished. He hasn’t been seen at the Link Campus university in Italy, where he was an academic visitor. The London Academy of Diplomacy and the law centre have closed.", which gives us a problem because the name is not the same. So we can't really use it. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 09:22, 5 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Rewrite by 79.94.22.108 on 5 November 2020 edit

An IP editor attempted to rewrite the article at 08:48 on 5 November. I reverted this rewrite because no reliable sources were given to support the new text. Statements like "in 2003, it was the largest academic institution in Europe" are so obviously untrue that the entire submission had to be regarded as too dubious to remain in any form. Other statements, if true, would contradict the reliable citation currently in the article that says that no academic of note had ever even heard of it. If the contributor still believes that the edits have merit, they will need to provide substantive supporting evidence for each statement before it can go in the article. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 10:25, 5 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion edit

Delete I have tweaked it a bit but in the end I don't see that it amounts to anything. I think it was created due the the Trump/Mifsud connection. I'm particularly concerned by the very tenuous "guilt by association" list of institutions that happen to have used that phrase or something vaguely like it. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 17:43, 22 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
