edits

Are these newest edits really appropriate? While they definitely add a lot of relevant content to the page, the way they're phrased comes off as a recruitment pitch. Don't get me wrong, I love Ivey (I just finished HBA1)... but I'm fairly certain that Wikipedia policy states articles have to conform to a neutral, non-commercial tone.

Also, the user making most of these edits ("Iveyinfo") seems to be on Ivey's payroll (which would make their edits suspect in light of wikipedia policy).

If these edits aren't reversed in a couple days, I intend to change them to conform to a tone that isn't so obviously self-promotion. Read the pages for the other major business schools and you'll see that they're not glowing reviews like this page is at the moment, but rather straight-forward facts. Its only fair that we adhere to this accepted standard.

Example:

Sentences like "The Ivey HBA provides students with endless opportunities upon graduation" should be rephrased to something more neutral such as:

"The Ivey HBA is widely recognized as a top-tier program by employers; several large firms recruit from the school."

Article need clean up

There are literally over 20 claims that need citation or to be deleted in this article. Its seems like someone from Ivey was vandalzining this article, it is simply seems like an advertisement, filled with claims about how great ivey is with no sources to back up the claims.

All of the facts mentioned in this article are true. Someone just has to go through it and properly cite them, that is all. It really does not seem like someone from Ivey was "vandalzining" this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.112.50.216 (talk) 03:37, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Uh huh

Yeah... except Ivey really IS one of the best business schools in Canada.

Even if it is, there's no external references that confirms it. Also, phrases like "located right on the university's beautiful campus" reads like a recruitment pitch. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 155.91.28.231 (talk) 15:54, August 21, 2007 (UTC)

New Building

Ivey now has a new building on Western Road in London. The 2013-2014 class was the first class to use the new building. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JavaPeppers (talk • contribs) 18:28, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

How do we have this page re-evaluated?

I've just read through with the goal of finding any marketing language and removing it - but couldn't really find any? It all reads like a plain description of the school, its programs and campuses? (The UWO campus really is stunning - how do we cite that? Post a picture?)

I believe that most of the advertising/non-neutral content has been removed by users over the last year - but the warning message persists. Is there a step that helps submit the changed page for re-evaluation?

Disclaimer: I work at Ivey - you can reach me via the web feedback button on the Ivey homepage.

Thanks! I know this page isn't ours to maintain, but if we can help repair it, we would definitely like to.

New Ivey Visual Identity

Hello Wikipedia Editors,

On April 2, 2013, the Ivey School of Business launched its new visual identity. The changes include a refreshed logo and name, "Ivey Business School". The update was done to align the school with Western Universities rebranding that occurred in January 2012. Many of the questions can be found in the FAQ section on the Ivey Brand website.

The new logo's can be found on the download page (Full Signature).

As indicated on my Talk page, I work at Ivey. Please contact me with any questions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rondirection (talk • contribs) 14:43, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
