Align Corporation Infobox Right

Configure corporation infobox to align right. --- Zetto Alter (Talk) 01:27, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

I'm not gonna change it, but centering the Declaration of Principles makes it pretty much unreadable. It LOOKS pretty ... is that more important than having people get its meaning? Qwer stoneghost (talk) 10:38, 20 March 2016 (CDT)

We are an in-game corporation, not just a wiki.

The first line should be a statement of WHAT E-Uni actually is -- it seems we are taking it for granted that everyone already knows. If someone didn't know better, they might think the our sole purpose is to maintain a wiki.

Who the founder was, alliance affiliation, and the current CEO is secondary to the Uni's core purpose and identity. No where on the page does it state, in simple and clear terms, that we are an in-game corporation that actually plays the game, and that new players can join to learn about the game from experienced players who are dedicating themselves to helping others.

I would recommend something along these lines:

"EVE University [E-UNI] is an EVE corporation created specifically to teach the next generation of pilots. We offer in-game training, live classes, regular fleets, mentors, equipment, and a variety of services to help new players experience everything EVE has to offer. Our primary goal is to help new players get the training they need to become successful in their chosen career and any future corporations they might join. E-Uni founded on 15 March 2004 by Morning Maniac. It is the main corporation of the Ivy League Alliance and hosts the Uniwiki - EVE Online's principle player-run educational resource. The current CEO of EVE University is Jilokari Kurvora. -- Jindo Lee (talk) 09:38, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

User:Hippla Tsero once stated that for those outside EVE University, EVE University is the Wiki, a fact we should relish. If a readers seeks information about EVE University, they can find it on pages linked on Template:EVEUniversityNav. This Wiki page is steeped in history. Send your suggestion to the CEO because I will not approve your recommendation. If you are interested in helping out the Wiki, consider undertaking a UniWiki:Projects or see what needs to be done on UniWiki:To-Do List. Arin Mara (talk) 17:06, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
Thanks. I've taken your advice and messaged the CEO directly with this example: User:Jindo_Lee/EVE_University/_MODIFIED_EVE_University -- Jindo Lee (talk) 16:24, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

Links needed

"Our communities across all..." should link to the our main community page.

"and host free public classes to give..." should link to the classes page.

And a few others. We should be guiding new players to the pages that showcase what we offer as a corp, rather than expecting them to search for it on their own. -- Jindo Lee (talk) 16:08, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

This is similar to your other topic: "We are an in-game corporation, not just a wiki". Feel free to integrate the suggestion into your existing proposed page. Arin Mara (talk) 16:19, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
