Move and disambiguation
editThere are two many Concordia University and similarly named institutions and the institution located in Quebec should not have the default name. U193581 (talk) 21:23, 25 March 2026 (UTC)
- I agree. I'd also note that Concordia University of Quebec is a result of the 1974 merger of two schools that had other names. It is thus one of the most recent schools to call itself Concordia. Jax MN (talk) 21:29, 25 March 2026 (UTC)
- This is by far the WP:primary topic. The only other articles that might be titled "Concordia University" are Concordia University of Edmonton and Concordia University System, all of whose campuses are called "Concordia University Location". Most readers looking for "Concordia University" will expect this article. Station1 (talk) 05:43, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
- Eh? One might make that argument if only discussing Canadian schools. But there are over 20 colleges and universities with that name. It would be far more clear to use a parenthetical modifier for each school name, identifying it by location. Just 'Concordia University' would be best suited to be the name of the DAB page.

- No, that's including the Concordia University System schools, which are not Canadian. No individual campus' article would be titled simply "Concordia University". Station1 (talk) 06:47, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Sustainability section
editThe Sustainability section does not really fit in the "Student life" section. I propose moving it to the "Campuses" section or the "Administration and governance" section. Also, the current paragraph is quite dated. I propose replacing that paragraph with content focused on current sustainability goals, strategies and actions.
