Australian Maritime College Page Changes

Latest comment: 7 days ago6 comments4 people in discussion

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

What I think should be changed (include citations):

Update the Campus Type and Location
Under Newnham Campus remove Aquaculture Centre
Remove Master Planning
Remove the vessel name Bluefin under Beauty Point Facilities

Why it should be changed:

there is no Sydney campus (https://amc.edu.au/contact)
Aquaculture is not taught at the Australian Maritime College (see www.amc.com.au)
The Australian Maritime College is not part of the move to Inveresk (https://www.utas.edu.au/about/campuses/launceston#content2-1381297)
Bluefin has been sold by the AMC (https://amc.edu.au/facilities/training-vessels) (https://www.utas.edu.au/about/news-and-stories/articles/2023/mv-bluefin-sets-compass-to-north)

Hi, the Sydney section in location appears to be referencing Australian National Maritime Museum which is in Sydney. Is this correct for the article? Encoded Talk 💬 08:17, 14 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

The Sydney location was announced by the school, but I can't find anything about the program ending. STEMinfo (talk) 01:34, 9 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello Pinging,

There is no mention of a Sydney campus on the AMC website https://amc.edu.au/ AMC120324 (talk) 22:36, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've removed the Sydney section, as the reference which was given for it, Defense Connect dated September 2017, was written using language which suggests that use of the Sydney facilities had not yet occurred as of the date the source article was written (e.g., "the Australian Maritime College (AMC) will expand its national reach through the delivery of two courses at an interstate study centre. The source provided by STEMinfo for the announcement was also dated September 2017 and (as STEMinfo stated) did not contain any info that appeared to be an update from this original date.^[a] The Master Planning section of the article was removed because it uses language which speaks of exercises and/or circumstances which were similarly incomplete or in stasis (e.g., "....campus is currently undergoing a master planning exercise as the University of Tasmania will be moving to the Inveresk precinct ..." etc. If the College is unable to update its own original announcements, then Wikipedia cannot be held remiss for failing to update and/or deciding to no longer report upon, what was essentially WP:CRYSTALBALL-type info to begin with.

Notes

^ The claim in the Australian National Maritime Museum article which states that a Sydney campus exists is referenced by that same Defense Connect article from 2017.
