Palestine Protests edit

Latest comment: 2 days ago5 comments4 people in discussion

I believe that a mention of the 2023-2024 recurring on-campus protests in relation to the Israel–Hamas war should be included. My entry may have been long, but I think that it's important to include, considering that soldiers from a foreign nation were invited to the campus while the army they're fighting for is under intense international scrutiny and condemnation.

I'm sorry, but I don't think the page for the University is the right place for mentions of protests, unless they might be of historical importance to the University. Personally, I was going to leave your changes up for a couple months, since I feel that Wikipedia can be useful as a news source. But then I was going to delete them, since I don't think they're important to the TOPIC OF THE ARTICLE.DavidHobby (talk) 03:00, 16 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I strongly advise you to not make edits to this article that others may view as lacking neutrality, especially edits that could be construed as protecting the institution's reputation. As an employee of the university, you have a direct conflict of interest. ElKevbo (talk) 03:53, 16 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm not employed by the university to edit Wikipedia, I'm doing this on my own. Trust me, I can maintain neutrality.DavidHobby (talk) 02:57, 25 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for taking to the talk page. Perhaps you could include a brief mention of the protestors as part of a broader collection of things that have been protested at/against at New Paltz. My sense is the point you are trying to make is SUNY NP, compared to maybe other colleges in NY for the most part is more politically active. I just felt the the particular piece was too long/detailed for a fairly small event. Feel free to take a crack at it, and I'll try to do the same when I am free. Thanks for editing Wikipedia!
