Possible copyright violation? Even if it isn't, it reads like advertising copy, not encyclopedia information.--Viajero 21:30, 20 Aug 2003 (UTC)
Same leugue as U.C. Berkeley, Stanford, Caltech, MIT, Carnegie-Mellon, Imperial College, Munchen,, etc.— Precedingunsigned comment added by96.246.24.194 (talk)22:35, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There's not much information in the article, I'll try to expand it in the future.Gemertp15:13, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Does this university have a history of any sort? What was it?Stevenmitchell11:47, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
An anon removed it in December 2007[1], and another anoncopied theuni website in January 2008, so we have had a copyright violation in the article for nearly two years. I am reverting that section back to December 2007.John Vandenberg(chat)12:13, 21 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Globalwikireader (talk) 08:06, 23 June 2019 (UTC)==Tone problems==This article should be written from neutral point of view and should not read as a PR-piece. I watered down some ravings about the institute that were not well substantiated and focused others. The following section should NOT be in the intro, but I could not find a good other place for the text. Feel free to use its parts in the relevant chapters of the article, if and when these have not been included elsewhere.gidonb (talk)20:35, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Deargidonb - It is not true that I have reverted all information back, please compare the last version of the article with the one I created couple of days ago. I have responded to all your comments writing down the summary. You disagreed on adding info about EU - I have given my explanation; You wanted to have a link to "numerous research institutes" - it is there; I have removed excessive information about TU Delft graduates, since you are right that it looked too much as a PR-piece, but I left information about Nobel laureates as such information is available on MIT or UCLA articles for example; finally information on the ranking position of TU Delft was there before I even started to edit the article and the only thing I did is to add more links supporting that statement. The ranking information is available on many university articles I know, look for example at MIT, UCLA, RWTH, EPFL, University College London, etc. In conclusion - I really do not understand your decisions. All the statements in the article on TU Delft are supported by links or other wikis, so I am not creating my own reality.—Precedingunsigned comment added byPrzemyslaw Pawelczak (talk •contribs)14:40, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that this page contains too much information that may rely on external sources, but presents it in a non-objective way. Rankings is a key example. It uses words such as prestigious, consistently in the top 3 without specifying how long. I toned down the language on rankings in the introduction and further down in the article, and tried to keep it factual.Globalwikireader (talk)08:06, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
