Talk:On Dit

Editors

Is it possible to create a list of editors and the years that they were active? This article has become a bit messy since it was first created in 2005. Ozdaren (talk) 15:13, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

I've started to tidy it up and wikify it with headings. Ozdaren (talk) 16:07, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

tidying of References

the original author has written comments for each reference. I've removed these from the article, though listed them here in case they need to be reverted. I changed the formatting as per Wikipedia:Citing_sources (hopefully - they may need checking!)Kathodonnell (talk) 06:28, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

theme

this sentence sounds like it was written in present tense (in 2010?). could it be changed to past/dated tense? "Currently, every issue of On Dit conforms to a certain theme, which is reflected in graphical style, and occasionally in the articles within it (although this may change in 2010)." eg: Since (XXXX_year), On Dit's graphical style and articles have conformed to a chosen theme.

To be honest, the whole thing should be removed as unreferenced original research, but the whole article is a bit like that. The work you've been doing has been good, you should feel free to be bold (and brutal, if need be) if you think it'll improve the article.  -- Lear's Fool 04:45, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

thanks. I'm new here so thought I'd start with fixing some of the references formatting as this was one thing listed on the article rating request entry (where I first came across it). I haven't had a chance to check for new references yet.. will try that next. (I've been clarifying some questions on how I should reference & which sources are suitable). I have heard of this publication, so I thought it would be good to try improve the article (& hopefully make it sound less PR-like). Kathodonnell (talk) 05:31, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Could we have a list of former columnists that later were accused of sexual crimes, fraud or antisemitism?

I don't know if this occurrence is disproportionate in any way for a student newspaper but it "feels" disproportionate. Or unlucky.

What's the hiring process at On Dit? 120.17.236.112 (talk) 14:08, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
