Removal of the Reliable Sources Box

edit

There have been listed many sources and references I feel that meet the reliable sources request posted on the top of the page. This article touches on a generic base, preventing much "specific" references. The definition of the Student Government President varies at each institution. Rather than outlining EACH college/university, I feel the article neutrally defines the position well enough. I have tried to organize information, neutralize (so many people tried to claim themselves as famous presidents), and locate/list supportive sources. I added a "please see your college" note in the reference section to encourage interested parties to research a specific institution for THEIR definition of every detail. Are we game to delete the notice? I'll delete it myself after a while if no one objects or does it before me. Sirkevinalot (talk) 20:35, 1 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

FAKE Famous Student Government Presidents

edit

This article doesn't need protection, it hasn't been vandalized. However, some people keep adding names to the Famous Student Government Presidents section (either their own name or someone else's). I understand how a holder of this position might think that the world as a whole should know their name and reward them for everything (I used to be a SGP at a university), but simply "being" or having "been" a SGP does not warrant "Famous" status.

You must reference/source your name claim, and meet the Wikipedia notable rules. STOP ADDING A NAME AS IF EVERYONE WILL APPLAUD YOU. Thank you!  :-) Sirkevinalot (talk) 16:27, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
