Just curious, Has anyone attempted to reach out to wikipedia for them to correct issues on the university’s page?
If so, who is the editor “Elkevbo” who refuses to correct errors with the name?

I didnt even know that Wikipedia was a thing anymore. I know that my kids couldnt even use it as a reference or footnote in papers while in highschool since it was so inacurate

Pro-tip: they could have just referenced the source material(s) in the footnote section of the Wikipedia articles.
