Questionable University of the People numbers edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago8 comments2 people in discussion

@Weatherextremes: as I explained I think we need an independent source for this, their own numbers seem questionable. I would also note that WP:ONUS applies, its on you to get consensus for your inclusion. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 14:53, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yes, but I don't follow the argument. The article discusses student number enrollment and the vast majority of the numbers here are self-published. Keeping it with the tag should be fine. Weatherextremes (talk) 14:58, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Unlike UoP those are all established universities and university networks or ones operated by a relevant government. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:05, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

For what its worth I would also like to see independent numbers for UoP competitor Laureate Education. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:08, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Actually, it is UoPeople and I believe it is a well established University, though it is a rather new institution (2009). The US Department of Education lists also its accreditation, so I don't understand why there is a particular problem with the self published data coming from UoPeople given that the tag is also there. Weatherextremes (talk) 15:12, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

I just don’t feel comfortable with it, unless we can find a better source I can’t support UoP’s inclusion on the list. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:58, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

I am comfortable with it given that we already have the explanatory tag. It is more than enough given that the majority of numbers here are self published. Weatherextremes (talk) 16:13, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

We will have to see what others make of the situation then. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 16:39, 2 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Questionable SUNY numbers edit

Latest comment: 9 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I think that the SUNY enrollment numbers were doubled (adding the total to the entries that added up to the total). I'm basing this on the recent numbers on the cited source—I don't think that SUNY has dropped its enrollment in half in the past couple of years. Kevin k (talk) 16:26, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
