Trustees as of 2016
editDue to the ever changing list of trustees it doesn't really make sense to have them listed out like it is currently. Not to mention that there is no citations to back it up. I'm thinking if this page is to really impart information it should follow the likes of Board of Trustees of Dartmouth College. I'm thinking only notable members of the board should be listed.

- It looks as though Wentworth Washington (talk · contribs) is a sock! I will continue with my edits then. SWRT (talk) 00:40, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
Improving article
editI don't really understand why this article keeps on being restored when it is in violation of WP: Notability, Wikipedia:Verifiability, Wikipedia:Verifiability, not truth, and most obviously of them all: Wikipedia:Relevance of content. I'm honestly not trying to vandalize this page at all, in fact I want it to be brought to a suitable level for wikipedia. This is an interesting building, sure, but more realistically its a pipe for "President of Bates College" and we don't need it to be so detailed with information that while informative is very irrelevant and most of it is unsourced. I am going to restore my edit once more because I think that editors are just seeing I'm removing a lot of "sourced content" and not actually looking at my edits. Remember folks, just because its sourced, doesn't mean it belongs here (see Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not). SWRT (talk) 02:40, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- Am restoring because the information is sourced and relevant to the administration which the article is also about. If you have a connection to Bates College you should not be editing this page at all as per WP:COI, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 15:01, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- I have absolutely no connection to the college. I am an alumnus of the Virginia Tech. The Campus of Virginia Tech originally redirected from "Lane Hall" because one of the oldest buildings on the campus is named Lane Hall. I'm here because I wanted to see the article for THAT page. But whatever. Its fine to have this college's administration link to this page, but at least make it good. I honestly don't know what you're doing, you just come back tor evert my edits on the page and don't actually have an interest in improving it. I'm not going to restore my edits but Christ, read Wikipedia:Relevance of content and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and look into it. Cheers. SWRT (talk) 01:54, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
- P.S. I can not stress the importance of what Wikipedia is not in reference to this article. I'll link it here, here, and here again. SWRT (talk) 01:54, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
