Crawford School of Economics and GovernmentCrawford School of Public Policy – The Crawford School has been renamed from Crawford School of Economics and Government to Crawford School of Public Policy since 04-26-12 by The Australian National University's (ANU) Vice-Chancellor. This name update can been seen on Crawford School's website[1], the article Crawford School of Economics and Government, on the ANU news announcement of the change[2], and other news articles external to the ANU.

  • Support Seems straightforward. Even if pure WP:GHITS showed prevalence for the older name, it's hard to see how retaining it benefits our readers. --BDD (talk) 18:07, 15 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
    • can we simply redirect the old name to the new name? Purlchafe (talk) 23:45, 16 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
Assuming it's moved, yes. Old names are retained as redirects almost every time. --BDD (talk) 00:30, 17 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Lack of secondary sources. edit

I skimmed the article for secondary sources and I was unable to find any. It seems that the article only links to either the school website or places like the “Devpol” blog which it openly admits are either run by or associated with the school. The article would very much benefit from the addition of such secondary sources. Slamforeman (talk) 23:51, 12 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
