The antisemitism section has problems with WP:UNDUE and even WP:POV forking. As comparison, the page for Columbia University has one short paragraph about protests over the Israel-Hamas war. Yet, protests on Columbia University's campuses have been - and continue to be - covered numerously in the media. I propose that part of the Antisemitism section, especially parts related to the Israel-Hamas war, be moved to 2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses, where it is more appropriate.Pillarfog (talk) 20:54, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Pillarfog: The claims of antisemitism at York University dates back over a decade before the current conflict. In fact, only one part of that section (the January 2024 letter from CUPE 3903) even occurred in 2024. Since the 2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses article cover events from April 2024 onwards, I'm not sure how this fits in there, especially given that York University doesn't even have an encampment.
- I'm not sure how this is WP:UNDUE either. I could understand that claim if you felt that there was too much emphasis on recent events, but the section covers antisemitic incidents dating back to 2009. It's a major part of the university's history and reputation.
- The comparison with Columbia University doesn't make sense given that York's section isn't about recent protests relating to the Israel-Hamas war but instead about a several events dating back to 2009. Chess (talk) (please mention me on reply) 21:36, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- The 2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses page is redirected from a non-dated Pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pro-Palestinian_protests_on_university_campuses&redirect=no) page and therefore parts of the Antisemitism section could apply to 2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses. But, the broader issue is that though antisemitism is important and deserving of some mention on the page, it's being given WP:UNDUE weight as it currently stands.
- The Antisemitism section is of similar size and prominence on the page as the Notable people section. Having a section this large that impacts the WP:BALANCE of the page is unprecedented in other university pages that I researched. Example: City University of New York. This is a school which has had antisemitism issues covered in mainstream media, but has a more balanced antisemitism section on their page. Also: Concordia University, which is another school that has had antisemitism issues covered prominently in the media, but with nothing mentioned on their page. My recommendation is that the Antisemitism section be reduced to appropriate WP:BALANCE or at the least return it back to the Student life section. Pillarfog (talk) 18:42, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
