Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Shira Geffen, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gaza. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

citations needed

edit

I think your approach to citations is a bit . . . aggressive. Not every sentence in an article needs a citation. Certainly there are things in the Vanderbilt University article that seem dubious, but most of the things you think need citations have them—they're just at the end of the paragraph. I'm adding them in sentence by sentence, but that makes the article look considerably more cluttered. Other things I'm not sure how one would cite, in that article or any other. How does one provide a citation for geography? A building either exists next to another one or it doesn't. I'm not sure there are reliable sources one can link to that say, "Building X is next to Building Y." Would a map suffice? Some things are so blatantly obvious that I'm not even going to bother hunting down a cite. Things like the chancellor's name or the fact that Vanderbilt is the only private school in the SEC—if you're the only person who disputes those things, you need your head examined (I mean that humorously).
