Talk:Swinburne Student Union

Still fleshing out the detail but the size of the organisation (40,000 members with an estimated income in the multiple millions) and its recent controversies I think provide more than enough justification for the article. I will add more in coming days. --2006BC 23:40, 11 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There also many articles linking to this one in the expectation that there would one day be an article on it. --2006BC 23:41, 11 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy tag

This should not be speedied. Swinburne student union is clearly notable. Sarah Ewart (Talk) 00:48, 12 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Great article Benjamin, I removed the speedy tag. Hope that's OK. DarrenRay 01:43, 12 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edits made on 31st October due to NPOV Problems

The edits made on 31st October 2006 were made by President Vicky Kasidis in order to correct edits made by User:124.180.99.89 I am explaining on her behalf.

That user's allegation that the SSU had been "hijacked" by Socialist Alternative was, to put it mildly, rather non-NPOV. That, and it simply wasn't true. Some of our reps are indeed SA members, but that doesn't meant they run the show. The President is affiliated with The Greens and our TAFE rep with Labor Unity, as well as other students who are politically independent. Additionally, Caspar Cumming is the President Elect for 2007. I will hopefully be able to correct things making use of some earlier versions of this article as well as some additions from an insider's perspective. Please be patient, as I am but a newb at this and would rather do things properly than engage in excessive haste. -- SwinburneSU

sigh* And another edit this afternoon due to the "perverse agenda of left wing students" etc etc garbage. If there's anybody who beats student politicans for sheer mind-blowing pettiness, I'm yet to be aware of them. -- SwinburneSU
