Action Plan: Making this artice a good arcticle

[edit]

All good and featured articles on universities seam to have kind of the same layout:

  1. History
  2. Campus
    1. campusses as sub catagories
  3. Academics
    1. Research
  4. Student Life
  5. Athletics
  6. Alumni

and Rest

Since athletics dont seam to be as important for a university here as in american univesities, sport activities should be in the Student Life section

Future Layout Plan:

  1. History
    1. Founding
    2. something in between
    3. Recent History (Renaming, TUD Law)
  2. Campus
    1. inner City Campus
    2. Campus Lichtwiese
    3. Botanical Garden
    4. Griesheim
    5. Other
  3. Academics
    1. Organisation
    2. Study
    3. Research
  4. Student Life
    1. Housing Situation and culture in Darmstadt
    2. Organisations at the University and Sport
    3. University Politics?
  5. People
    1. Professors and Scientists
    2. Alumni

history part

[edit]

is it ok to just copy large parts and translate them? propably not! The Layout should include: Founding first and recent history last

to do list

[edit]
  • get new pictures
  • apply new layout
  • logo: allowed to use it? it doesnt look sharp!


Move of the page

[edit]

Technische Universität Darmstadt cares a lot about not being translated as Technische Universität Darmstadt is a brand name. As a faculty member of Technische Universität Darmstadt, I have taken the liberty of moving the page to its proper name. If there should be any trouble, please contact User_talk:Janrpeters.

Official name vs. english translation

[edit]

The article states that the official name of the university is "Technische Universität Darmstadt". So I'm wondering... why doesn't the article name match the official name? --70.64.15.226 (talk) 06:48, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Athene logo sw.jpg

[edit]

Image:Athene logo sw.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Requested move

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was not moved. --BDD (talk) 20:47, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Technische Universität DarmstadtDarmstadt University of Technology – It's not like I'd perfer one or the other option, just felt there should be a discussion, because the English variant is the one usually applied in similar article's names (like the ones linked by the Template:TU9). There also is the problem of the related category having kept its name. The move had been performed by User:StG1990 on the basis of the following rationale: "Technische Universität Darmstadt is also the offical english name". As stated above by himself, User:Janrpeters had performed a move just before that, which, however, had been done in cut & paste fashion. So the questions are if a) "Technische Universität Darmstadt" can really be considered a unique brand name comparable to, say, RWTH Aachen, or if "Technische Universität" should be considered a mere generic name instead, and b) if this should be considered the essential point in naming the related article.

The TU Darmstadt does not use an translation. This ist clearly marked in der Corparate-Design-Guide. Sadly the text which is explaining this is only accessible to members of the university. But I can give an citiation: Die Technische Universität Darmstadt tritt in ihrer Außendarstellung prinzipiell mit ihrem vollen Eigennamen auf und verzichtet auf eine englische Übersetzung. Diesen für alle Mitglieder der Universität verbindlichen Beschluss hat das Präsidium der TU Darmstadt im März 2008 gefasst. (Google-Translation) By this the official name in is here also Technische Universität Darmstadt. Also allowed is TU Darmstadt but this is only an abbreviation. --StG1990 (talk) 19:56, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction

[edit]

The introduction is absurdly long and was most likely written by an editor in a conflict-of-interest-position to create a prestige image.

The extent of the introduction is unprecendented for German universities even of higher caliber and reputation. Herr Endgegner (talk) 21:48, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Only two women listed in notable alumnis

[edit]

Read through the alumni list on a mission to solve an orphaned article and noticed there are only two women listed in the notable alumni section — if someone is familiar with this topic please take the time to update this. Marleeashton (talk) 07:11, 18 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
