Split

As of this revision 412428 bytes. The first split I'd like would be for a separate list of Harvard people in politics and law. FoxyGrampa75 (talk) 20:34, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

Please just leave it. The idea of splitting articles/lists based on source size is completely numbskulled. (That's not aimed at you -- I realize that some guideline somewhere recommends it.) This is perfectly manageable, and has a smaller bandwidth footprint than a 20K article with four of five images in it. EEng 20:40, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

The size of images only matters at that scale when they're opened though. Large lists are still an issue, but generally aren't necessary. I agree with splitting the politics/law sections. Onetwothreeip (talk) 09:23, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

Untrue. Event a small thumbnail is several tens of K. EEng 16:02, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

• The split most other universities seem to make is between alumni and faculty. See e.g. List of Dartmouth College alumni vs. List of Dartmouth College faculty. I'd support that. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 05:34, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
• I would also support a link between alumni and faculty. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:74C0:6218:B829:12E0 (talk) 04:45, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
• User:Miraclepine, what do you think about splitting this into List of Harvard University alumni and List of Harvard University faculty? It should be an easy split, if you'd like to implement it. Otherwise, we could remove the tag. This list is long but not impossible for a reader; by my count, it's about 12,000 words (I count an entry like "Jared Sparks (1789–1866) College 1819; professor (1838–1849) Historian" as five words; if you count years as being 'words', then it's probably 14K or 15K). WhatamIdoing (talk) 17:46, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

  @WhatamIdoing: I'm no longer interested in splitting as much as I was in the past, but I do support a split. Although the section currently has 91 entries, Category:Harvard University faculty has over twenty-five times that amount (not counting those in the subcategories), so given the section's current size starting with a draft would be reasonable. ミラP@Miraclepine 17:59, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

  I don't think it's worth bothering with a draft. I suggest just following the steps at WP:SPLIT to turn the redirect into a regular page. It can be expanded later. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:10, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Pete Seeger?

not on here anywhere, but his own wiki claims he went and dropped out.
