Fair use rationale for Image:Unsalogo.gif
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Unsalogo.gif 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 this Wikipedia article 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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Dubious statement
[edit]"it ranks among the biggest universities in the world"
--User:Vanished user 8ij3r8jwefi 20:25, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
Agree, it's not listed here: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/List_of_largest_universities_by_enrollment lists.Three universities in former Yugoslavia are bigger (Zagreb, Skopje, Belgrade). In addition, I'm not sure if we can say "it is originally established in 1531". We can say that Ottoman Medresa of Sarajevo was the first university in Sarajevo, est. 1531. However, there is no connection between that school and existing university, est. 1949.The University of Sarajevo was established in the same city, but as a brand new university.--216.19.176.131 (talk) 06:22, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
Ottoman Medresa of Sarajevo
[edit]Somebody moved the article to "Ottoman Medresa of Sarajevo" and it stood like that for a month!? I moved it back to "University of Sarajevo". Vanjagenije (talk) 09:36, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
Is Madrassah a University ?
[edit]WIkipedia clearly defines what is a university on the "university" page; "Universities were created in Italy and evolved from Cathedral schools for the clergy during the High Middle Ages.[3]"
Then, on the list of oldest universities, Wikipedia writtes; Other institutions of higher learning, such as those of ancient Greece, ancient Persia, ancient Rome, Byzantium, ancient China, ancient India and the Islamic world, are not included in this list owing to their cultural, historical, structural and juristic dissimilarities from the medieval European university from which the modern university evolved
Is Ottoman Madrassah really a university ? If it is, why exclude all the other Ottoman Madrassahs throught the empire from the list of oldest universities ? Why is only Medressah of Sarajevo included ?
Turkish newspappers as Source ?
[edit]Sarajevo Madrassah is not defined as University by the turskih newspapper source and the link to a turkish travel agency. This turksih newspapper defines it as a Madrassah (Sarajevo Celebrates 476 Years of its Medresa!). Even the newspapper source (a bad reference) does not support the claim of a provinitial ottoman Meadrassah being a University as defined on Wikipedia.
This article is an insult to academy and Unversities of europe. To say that maddrassah of Sarajevo is a university older than that of Jena is simply mind blowing and humiliating.
