Scholarship information should stay. Summerdays1 (talk) 22:23, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A vague statement presented without context is unlikely to make sense much less convince anyone of anything. ElKevbo (talk) 00:03, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm disappointed there is no mention to this fact that has quite a high encyclopedical and storical relevance. 81.56.24.219 (talk) 10:08, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Reference 160 has outdated link, it is currently at avid.wiki/Chernin_Entertainment. The wiki moved to Wikiforge in the summer of 2023 as an explanation for the domain name change and reason to edit. Timpbskid23 (talk) 15:52, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A comma should follow “University of California, Berkeley” if it’s written out in running prose; see MOS:GEOCOMMA. I see this is missing in the lede sentence at least. 103.203.255.65 (talk) 19:56, 3 May 2024 (UTC)\[reply]
Already done: I couldn't find any instances in the body text but I did find two or three uses without the comma in the citations, which I fixed. 〜Askarion✉ 14:43, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
See: COM:R § Front doors of the Berkeley SCET on Commons. I'm thinking about adding info about the Sutardja Center to this article or Berkeley Engineering, and the requested image would be good illustration. If anyone is near the area, snapping a pic and uploading would be greatly appreciated! BhamBoi (talk) 18:44, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MadMedeiros Your additions to the lede of the article have given it an expansion, but much of the statements made have been done without first ensuring that they are appropriately verified, sourced, and adhere to the policies regarding due weight and article ledes. For example, many of your changes added information to the lede that were unverified in the body, giving WP:UNDUE weight to the information, even if it is sourced. You might also want to review WP:BOOSTER regarding similar issues and tone, along with the prevailing consensus on information regarding reputation, prestige, and rankings.

"On March 11, 2022, state legislators released a proposal to change CEQA to exempt the university from its restrictions.[83] On March 14, Gavin Newsom signed the bill into law.[84] On June 6, 2024, the Supreme Court of California upheld UC Berkeley's exemption from CEQA. Berkeley has continued to face a housing shortage.[85]" 2600:1700:488:C380:55C6:FDC0:10EB:A918 (talk) 23:19, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It means that after 50 years Berkeley will finally be rid of that eyesore People's Park (Berkeley). Not something that belongs in the main article for a 150-year-old institution. EEng 01:11, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
