The proposed WikiProject was not created. Closing proposal due to low editor interest. Ajpolino (talk) 22:46, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law is a reputable law school and it is very disappointing that its Wikipedia article contains wording that promotes the school in a subjective manner without imparting real information. The goal of this project is to correct any language in the articles that appears biased or self-serving, so that the impartial template can be removed. IvyLaw (talk) 18:03, 11 July 2016 (UTC)}[reply]
There are many articles on Wikipedia for law schools. Northwestern Law happens to be one of the most reputable law schools in the United States according to US News & World Reports. I am disappointed to see that for the past six or more years, that the law school's article contains wording that promotes the subject in a subjective manner without imparting real information. It would be a great service to Wikipedia and the law school to rectify this situation.
Status of this proposal
editI started this as a draft page, will add a link to this proposal to the Project Proposals page and also to the relevant projects once this is in good shape. The plan is to leave this open and see if we get at least three supporters to help make the article more neutral. IIf you support the idea please add your name to the #Support section. Thanks!

- Oppose We don't have WikiProjects for individual universities that I am aware of, so making one for Northwestern Law, not a general project, but one focusing on neutrality, would be overkill in my opinion.--Bellerophon5685 (talk) 02:01, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- My apologies, we do have wikiprojects for individual schools

The issues OP brings up would be better addressed in making a wikiproject for Northwestern University.--Bellerophon5685 (talk) 02:04, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
