San Sebastian College Recoletos de Manila (popularly known as Baste) is one of the most reputable Catholic institutions in the Philippines.

On the Use of the abbreviation CSS-R

I'm a graduate of this College, yet I've never seen anyone use the abbreviation CSS-R to refer to the school. Actually, I didn't even remember that the Tagalog name, although given correctly, was used officially anytime. Thus, I suggest that this should not be mentioned.

Since nobody is defending the proposal of deletion of the abbreviation CSS-R, i shall be removing this in 10 days from now (10 Aug 09). Thank you. Nasugbu batangas (talk) 15:32, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:San Sebastian College–Recoletos de Manila/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Moray An Par (talk) 05:41, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
Consider rewriting the lead. One-sentence paragraphs are not preferred.

The lead should be a summary of the article. Limit bolding to the first mention of the name and alternative names (including abbrevs). MOS:BOLD
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
All references are SSC published. They are also not properly formatted.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Academics section fail. Include enrolment, admission and graduation data. Discuss/tabulate foundation of major units. See WP:UNIGUIDE.

I don't think the "system" section belongs to the article. If the system is notable, consider creating a separate article and discuss here its relation to the system. It seems the system is a different unit from the college, and therefore must not be elaborated in the article. Same case for the Agustinian Recollects section.

Info on research, student life, athletics, campus and student governance are missing.

Do not list degree programs offered per WP:UNIGUIDE
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
There is no policy/guideline regarding this but I would prefer if there would be no gallery, and the images are to be integrated into the article.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

This article has so many concerns that clearly cannot be addressed swiftly. I suggest the nominator to read WP:UNIGUIDE and featured university articles. This nomination is obviously premature, and therefore must be speedily failed. Moray An Par (talk) 05:54, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Article coverage

Explaining so much info on the Augustinian Recollects and the basilica is irrelevant. Please stick to the topic which is the university. Those two have their own articles. Please read WP:UNIGUIDE. Moray An Par (talk) 13:22, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Scout Gandia Statue

The article asserts that the statue was erected on the 50th anniversary of the college. This is erroneous. Although I do not have the exact date of the statue's construction and dedication, I do recall this statue being there during the mid-to-late 1960s and the early 1970s. Too, I do recall that the crash that killed on their way to Greece for the 11th World Scout Jamboree happened on Sunday 28-Jul-1963. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ajsdecepida (talk • contribs) 09:04, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The aforementioned was entered before I looked at the article's photograph of the Gandia Statue. Having done so, I see that the statue is a different one from the old one I knew from my student days. I don't think it is just a paint job either. So I withdraw the assertion about any error. Although I would still contend that the article's assertion makes it sound as if there was no memorial there prior to 1991. andyJSD 09:13, 19 January 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ajsdecepida (talk • contribs)
