Talk:Columbia University


In the caption for the last image within this subsection, "The 1797 Taylor Map of New York City...", there is an minor inconsistency between the image and the caption (if one would consider it an inconsistency). The caption specifically states that the map is "showing 'The College' at its Park Place (then Robinson Street) location".

As the caption uses quotes around "The College", I am assuming that it is treating the phrase as an excerpt from the image, and is supposed to match with text in the image. However, in the image of the map, Columbia University is actually denoted by "The Colledge". Wondering if this is important enough to copyedit?

I suggest that you link the columbia blue text in the information with the corresponding wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_blue Studentoftheworld123 (talk) 09:32, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @ElKevbo: could you explain what your objection is to this version? It retains the links that you feel are important while improving accessibility for users. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:19, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not amenable to that proposal - it looks terrible and doesn't make sense grammatically. ElKevbo (talk) 11:01, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
