RE: USC (well... the Australian one...)

So I've looked over the article, and admittedly I have seen articles waaaaaay more biased and non-neutral than USC's article. However, with that said - coming from someone who's significantly updated my university's article as well (but as a student, not as a paid employee) - the tone of the article is coming from someone who works from the PR department just a bit. Now the fact that you're disclosing you're an employee of the university is absolutely welcome - we like people being up front about these things. However, paid personnel of companies and institution generally have a tendency of subconsciously boast or over-flowery. I would encourage asking students of the university to help you contribute - that way you won't be the only one pegged for COI. Also, don't get too worked up over a COI notice it's simply a notice from another editor saying you may be associated with the article subject a little too closely for comfort, but it is not necessarily placing you at fault for anything. I would like the USC article restructured though. Please read over the article guidelines that conform to all Wikipedia articles regarding universities. WP:UNIGUIDE. If you have further questions, leave a message on my talk page. Remember to click "New Section" and use four tildes for a signature. - Jameson L.

University of the Sunshine Coast

Per your request, here are some things to work on, many remain from before:

• Although the school's branding campaign my call for referring to it as the University, Wikipedia does not. University should only be capitalized if it is starting the sentence or is part of the proper noun of University of the Sunshine Coast.
• External links such as that need to be relocated to the External links section, or converted into footnotes. They are not to be inline as many currently are.
• Punctuation goes before the footnote, not after. Footnotes 1 & 2 are correct, ones like 5 are incorrect.
• Lists: basically all lists should be converted to sentences.
• More citations, as whole sections are currently unreferenced

That's it for a quick look. Aboutmovies (talk) 07:40, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:USClogo.png)

Thanks for uploading File:USClogo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:06, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
