Paul Horning was not the only Heisman trophy winner to come from a losing team. The first winner, Jay Berwagner. University of Chicago, was from a losing team. See Wikipedia article on him.
George Campbell Jr.
Much of the material reported here under the heading "Cooper Union controversy and investigation by New York state Attorney General" is incorrect, as is much of the material in the Attorney General's report which merely regurgitates a lawsuit filed. The citations here are politically motivated or biased comments by an alumnus with a strong bias and which are potentially libelous. A section of this bio challenging the attorney general's report, published in the Chronicle of Higher Education has been edited out and should be re-added.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.33.13.1 (talk) 16:54, April 2, 2016

The entry is not neutral at all. It reads like a PR person's work.
"Ramy El-Batrawi is the Owner, Managing Member of X LLC , El-Batrawi is a deal Maker and an effective negotiator, known for his expertise in structuring winning transactions. He is noted for his adherence to the principles of protecting his investors to the best of his abilities, and for being an entrepreneur, investor, and humanitarian"
"In 2000 Ramy El-Batrawi was honored through his selection to participate on the entrepreneurial panel in GB2000, The Graduate Business Conference hosted by UCLA’s Anderson School of Management."
"-In August 2015 Dr Claude A Ruffalo, Ph.D a top clinical physiologist Ph.D. who has 3 Post-Doctoral Degrees did a neuropsychological test of Ramy El-Batrawi.
The neuropsychological test results:
Verbal Comprehension. Mr. El-Batrawi verbal comprehension functioning was measured by the WAISA-IV verbal Comprehension Subtest, which measures verbal practical judgment. His score on Comprehension Subset was at the 91st %ile in comparison to his age group with an IQ estimated equivalent of 120 in the Superior Range of functioning. Vocabulary. The Vocabulary Subset of the WAIS-IV is considered to be one of the best single measures of verbal intelligence. Mr. El-Batrawi English language Vocabulary was measured by the WAIS-IV Vocabulary Subset which resulted in a score at the 98th %ile in comparison to his age group with an IQ estimate of 135 in the Very Superior Range. This is a particularly high English Vocabulary score given that he was not born in the us, but in Geneva, Switzerland and left home and school at about 12 years of age.
Abstract Verbal Reasoning and Conceptualization. Mr. El-Batrawi score on the Similarities Subset of WAIS-IV which masseurs abstract verbal reasoning and conceptualization was at the 91st %ile with a IQ equivalent of 120 in the superior range.
Discussion of test results. Mr. El-Batrawi score on the WAIS-IV Verbal Comprehension, Vocabulary, and similarities Subsets combine to provide very strong and compelling evidence that Mr. El-Batrawi has exceptionally high (Superior to Very Superior) verbal reasoning abilities. '"
These are just some examples of the PR tendencies.
Furthermore, the grammar on the page indicates the writer's first language is not English. It needs significant work.

Not quite a G10 attack page, but a very dodgily sourced article alleging fraud on the part of Ms Fenech de Fremaux. astro (talk) 21:11, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- Speedy deleted by Keegan (CSD G10: Attack page) nonetheless. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 13:20, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

The words "liberal idiot" seem a bit subjective to me. And I am not sure the reference to being a transvestite belongs in the first line. 96.229.104.192 (talk) 03:37, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for spotting that, it was a week-old vandalism [1], now reverted. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:56, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

This page is about me and contains incorrect information about the district I am running in and the name of my opponent. It also later make many poorly sourced assertions which the author admits are "alleged." Many of the statement are libelous and should be removed as they add nothing of value to the page. These are political attacks by political enemies and in the spirit of fairness should not be allowed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hideliketherestofthem (talk • contribs) 21:36, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
- The page has been put up for WP:AFD here. Meatsgains (talk) 22:01, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
Mohammed Ali Al-Bayati
Mohammed Al-Bayati ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
On this page it is stated he is a "is a comparative pathologist and HIV/AIDS denialist, and member of the board of Alive and Well AIDS Alternatives" On the citation listed for this quote there is nothing regarding Mohammed Al-Bayati being a denailist or refers to his association with the Alive and Well AIDS Alternatives. The lead section is not adequately developed. I tried developing it and doing a unbiased overview of this is person was, but a user deleted all of my work. The lead section has a story of a young girls court case. But that does not belong there, that should be added in a court case heading or elsewhere. Also the source listed for that story does not state Dr. Mohammed Al-Bayati was involved in the death, it says he worked for that case.
I believe this individuals page was created by someone who did not like his research or who he was. It has a very negative connotation to it.

We believe this article is inappropriate for hosting on Wikipedia. It is based on insufficient or incorrect information to give fame or credence to a person who is not deserving, the high importance tag attached to the article is not appropriate.
This gentleman is one of many many professors in the country, though perhaps in a more favorable political position, seeing the awards which government has bestowed upon him, while no international award has been given to him by any international reputed body like IUPAC, ACS, RSC, etc.
1. There are no references cited for the claim on first line, nor for the second line "He is renowned for his research in the various areas relating to natural product chemistry." In our knowledge he is not among the leading scientists and scholars in the field of organic chemistry in Pakistan, nor overseas. There is no major scientific finding or discovery attributed to him.
2. This article has a lot of information which seems to be incorrect, as can be seen on following lines in the article.
3. The Royal Society of Chemistry has no awards with such names as is claimed to be bestowed upon this person in the article. These are political awards by the government of Pakistan which are based on nominations by bureaucrats.
4. He is not a visiting professor with any of the universities as mentioned in the article. As regards the University of Rhode Island, the link given in the reference is not correct. All other references just pertain to his visits to those universities, not his appointment there as visiting professor.
5. He is not a recipient of any Fulbright scholarship or fellowship, there is no reference for the claim given. He did his Masters and PhD from Pakistan not from the U.S., as the page states.
6. He is not a fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry. The reference used for this purpose is misleading. It just leads to a search of papers in which his name appears. No announcement of his fellowship is there.
7. The publications as referred to in the page are not from any leading journal of chemistry or organic chemistry, not even a single of them.
On the basis of all this, it may be concluded that this page has insufficient basis and incorrect data to substantiate its existence on the Wiki pages, and needs to be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mhshah7 (talk • contribs) 21:30, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
- Who are you referring to when you say "we"? No doubt the page needs additional sources for verification and is promotional. Meatsgains (talk) 21:47, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
- The page is poorly written and needs copyediting and a trim of some of the puff, but the subject is clearly notable. Jonathan A Jones (talk) 21:54, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
