-==Fair use rationale for Image:HamptonU.jpg==
-[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|70px|left]]
-'''[[:Image:HamptonU.jpg]]''' is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is no [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline|explanation or rationale]] as to why its use in '''this''' Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|boilerplate fair use template]], you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with [[WP:FU|fair use]].
-Please go to [[:Image:HamptonU.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline |fair use rationale]]. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
-If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Missing rationale2 -->

-==Photos==
-The photo has some illustrations but additional photos and/or photo uploads are needed to improve the article.
-*HABS or HAER photos may be available for this site. [http://lcweb2.loc.gov/pp/hhquery.html Search HABS/HAER here]
-*Seemingly all of the 17 photos accompanying NRHP document (linked in article) are taken by NPS employee and Federal NPS owned, hence public domain and can be used. [http://nrhp.focus.nps.gov/natreghome.do?searchtype=natreghome Search NPS focus here, please select the highest resolution JPG versions]
-*New photos would be helpful.
-==School shooting==
-I added a section about the recent 2009 shooting according to the suggested standard of larger school shootings to be featured in standalone articles and smaller school shootings to be featured under their respective school's page. As with the [[University_of_P%C3%A9cs#Spree_shooting| University of Pécs shooting]] for example.

-== Alumni Factor ranking ==
-I recently removed a reference to [https://www.alumnifactor.com/top-177-colleges Alumni Factor] with a request with a note asking that editors "please discuss in Talk why this should be included in this (or any other) article e.g., no concrete description of methodology, no evidence of noteworthiness)."  Instead of discussing anything in Talk or presenting any evidence, [[User:Broadmoor|Broadmoor]] [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Hampton_University&oldid=prev&diff=724258193 reverted] my edit with an edit summary of "Read the website and it's growing in popularity as one of the premier ranking publications."  First, I have read the website and it has no specific details about its methodology.  Second, we have no evidence whatsoever that the website is either "growing in popularity" or a "premier ranking publication."

-::You're being unnecessarily petty and combative as usual which is why I loathe dialogue with you. Instead of removing the cited fact because you didn't like it like you did, you should've started a talk page for discussion before it was removed after we came to a consensus on the matter. And you should've started the talk page because only you have a problem with it, I don't feel like a talk page on the matter is needed so I didn't start one.  AND YOU CLEARLY DID NOT DO YOUR RESEARCH BECAUSE IF YOU DID YOU'LL KNOW THAT THEY RANK UNIVERSITIES BASED ON ALUMNI SATISFICATION AND SUCCESS.  Many universities have cited The Alumni Factor on their official website and many reputable publications has praised the new ranking system they invented so it's a legitimate ranking system. A simple google search validates everything I stated.  See this is why I can't take you seriously, you don't do due diligence, you're not fair, and then you play the victim as if you're not in the wrong.  Here is one of the top universities in the world, [[Rice University]], citing their ranking on the Alumni Factor List ...
