Talk:University of Sheffield Students' Union

start

I started this page using content from University of Sheffield, I cannot be sure the content is correct. I would be grateful if someone could check it through and make some improvements.

I'm sudying at shef' Uni' and it all seems ok. Is this page needed though as it just repeats (exactly) the content from University of Sheffield#Student Union, Sports and Traditions?--JK the unwise 16:41, 2 May 2005 (UTC)

I think the mention of the Politics Society is a bit pointless and not entirely accurate- it is not really part of the union. Why don't we have something said about every single committee, society or sports club mentioned on this page?

Largest union building: disputed

University of Bristol Union claims to have the UK's largest students union building, as does University of Sheffield Union of Students. Until anyone can find any evidence, I'm changing this to "one of the largest..."

This may well be true, as technically Sheffield University Students Union consists of three buildings, University House, Graves Building and the Main Union Building.

Fair use rationale for Image:Sheffieldunionlogo.jpg

Image:Sheffieldunionlogo.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 16:09, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

List of presidents

As I understand it, a list of non-notable people is not allowed, according to WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Claims that people have used the list, or that it dates back to 2005, don't seem to override the WP:NOT policy. Phlegm Rooster (talk) 20:50, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

LGBT+ history

I may be incorrect but I believe Sheffield Students Union was very progressing in promoting LGBT+ rights. I believe they were the first university union to run an LGBT+ club night when they started running 'Climax' in the 1990s. Certainly this was mentioned when I was a student there in the 90s. Would anyone be able to verify this and is it worthy of inclusion in the union's history? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.156.140.148 (talk) 20:22, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
