Numerous uncited paragraphs, including most of the Notable people section and residences. Demographics section needs an update of the prose, and the history section needs an update of COVID-19 information (and I'd argue that it needs to be expanded to include many more significant events).

[edit]

Change the size of St. George Campus from 71 hectares to 55.8 hectares (https://data.utoronto.ca/data-and-reports/facts-and-figures/facts-and-figures-facilities/). Also, change the notable people section to reflect that uoft has thirteen nobel laureates now. Geotricity (talk) 02:32, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. Added source for the size (prior 71 ha figure not supported in source). Updated Nobel count to 13, but added a CN tag with sentence (not doubting the claim, but a cite would be needed at some point). Leventio (talk) 07:44, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change current president from Meric Gertler to Melanie Woodin. [1] Historicalbenzenering (talk) 14:22, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: WP:TOOSOON According to the linked source, she doesn't take office until July. PianoDan (talk) 17:01, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@PianoDan We could still add it in some paragraph in this article as information, but not directly change the current president. Justjourney (talk) 17:08, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Given that we don't mention the CURRENT president anywhere in the article, I'm not sure where the change would go. Do you have a suggestion for wording and location? PianoDan (talk) 19:45, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@PianoDan I mean the infobox mentions the current president. Justjourney (talk) 19:48, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The infobox says "President". Then let's have sentences explaining it. Justjourney (talk) 19:51, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure I'm being clear - it's a requirement of using the "Edit Request" template that you provide the exact language you'd like added, along with where you want it to go. "Change X to Y" (although "x" can be blank).
I don't think the infobox needs to be updated at this time, so if you'd like to suggest verbiage for the body, please spell it out word for word. PianoDan (talk) 19:56, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Alright then. Justjourney (talk) 19:57, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As you said above, waiting for when she will be in office. Justjourney (talk) 19:58, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Regardless, Gertler is still president until July. We wait until then. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:42, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
