Hiya. (1) The logo file is invalid. (2) The bulleted list in the article isn't the board, but MBZUAI Executive Program leaders. Do you want to delete these? Not entirely sure listing the whole board is helpful, BTW. (3) Done. The sourcing (to the University's own website or ADMO) is not great, BTW. (4) Done by rearranging under Courses & programs. This is now borderline promotional, IMHO and other editors might take a more dim view of this level of detail than I have...

Well-referenced draft for community review

[edit]

Hi,

I am back with some more complete additions to the page. I've put the draft rewrite in my sandbox for editors here to review.

I believe that it is neutral, non-promotional and more thorough than the current version. I would love for one or two editors to review it and share how I can get it integrated into the current live article.

Thank you for your time, Ben Bhps1997 (talk) 16:19, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Sammi Brie @Alexandermcnabb Hi! I have a complete rewrite and I'm not sure the best way about getting it reviewed. Would either of you take a look at it and give me your thoughts on how to move all or parts of it live, please? Best, Ben Bhps1997 (talk) 16:42, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Ben. You could always bung it up here as a section or, if you prefer, on the Wikipedia Sandbox at Wikipedia:Sandbox and I'll happily take a look at it. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 04:11, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Alexander, that's very kind, thank you. I've uploaded it to my Sandbox: User:Bhps1997/sandbox
Thanks, Ben Bhps1997 (talk) 07:19, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Bhps1997, I took a look over it and it seems absolutely fine to me. I made a few very minor, arguably even semantic, changes but can see nothing awry with sourcing, tone or fact. Now, I AM long-term UAE-based and sometimes don't see language as promotional that others object to, so you may yet see some push-back but I can't honestly see anything wrong there. I'd suggest you go ahead and upload the new article and refer to this conversation in your edit summary! Thank you for your careful work here.
