Student life section

Can someone please edit the student life section? There are so many lists there. It looks clumsy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Navneetiitv (talk • contribs) 01:00, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

• Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi → IIT (BHU) Varanasi
• Indian Institute of Technology (Indian School of Mines), Dhanbad → IIT (ISM) Dhanbad

– To harmonize WP page title of IIT (BHU) & IIT (ISM) with the current page titles of the 21 other IITs. Also, these names are as per IIT system's official website's homepage. ---CX Zoom(^he/_him) (^{let's talk}|_contribs) 13:54, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

• @CX Zoom: The second request [Indian Institute of Technology (ISM) Dhanbad] redirects to Indian Institute of Technology (Indian School of Mines), Dhanbad. Someone needs to make a correction. Sawol (talk) 01:54, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

  My bad. I was having a bad day. Thanks for noting, I have fixed it now. ---CX Zoom(^he/_him) (^{let's talk}|_contribs) 15:39, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

IIT Varanasi or IIT BHU

The institute is referred to as IIT-BHU as per the following sources, so please adhere to the same name.

• Ministry of Education, Government of India
• Institute itself
• Council of IITs
• INSTITUTES OF TECHNOLOGY (AMENDMENT) ACT, 2012 (No. 34 OF 2012)

Thank you, User4edits (talk) 15:25, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

if the full name is gonna be there then I'd suggest using brackets around Banaras Hindu University. ie Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University) Varanasi (IIT-BHU)

Also Banaras Hindu University is NOT the parent institute of IIT-BHU, neither is IIT (as its not a institute as such), both have separate administrations/funding, despite being located in the same campus Criticic (talk) 08:23, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University), Varanasi (IIT-BHU)

This is the most suitable name as the official government act, that turned IT-BHU into IIT BHU uses this name. Criticic (talk) 08:27, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Kindly refer https://iitbhu.ac.in/administration which details the administration of IIT BHU, no person of BHU is even on the BoG. Criticic (talk) 08:30, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

@Criticic: While the Varanasi is there for standardisation among other IITs, I don't find the need to repeatedly write Varanasi as the same is not used in official terms, and IIT BHU is enough. User4edits (talk) 09:31, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Also, IIT-BHU, IIT(BHU) or IIT BHU can be used interchangeably and freely as WP:RS use all three. User4edits (talk) 09:32, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

yes iit bhu is fine, I meant in the opening paragraph Criticic (talk) 09:33, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
