Hey, why is there so less information about IIMC. There is much more to IIMC than given here...
The name of the institute is "Indian Institute of Management Calcutta". The word Calcutta is part of the name. Please do not change it to "Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta"

Is it Infosys Banagalore & Infosys Chennai or Infosys, Banagalore & Infosys, Chennai?
The IIM is estd by the govt of India and each location gets its management and freedom to operate within a certain guidelines. But each location is an IIM. If you look at the official address, it says:
IIM, Prabandh Nagar, Off. Sitapur Road, Lucknow-226 013.
Therefore, the name is IIM & you are free to put or not put commas when you add the location name to identify the excact institute. The rules of English grammar tend to agree with Mr.Dole and say that you should put a comma.
INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT CALCUTTA Diamond Harbour Road Joka, Kolkata (Calcutta) - 700104 West Bengal INDIA
Here's further proof. The image below is a photgraph of the opening page of the book: "STATISTICS Concepts and Aplications" coauthored by Prof. Sahadeb Sarkar of IIM Calcutta. The name of the institute is clearly mentioned as " Indian Institute of Management Calcutta", and the name of city Kolkata is mentioned separately.

In the last revision I edited, I found duplicate named references, i.e. references sharing the same name, but not having the same content. Please check them, as I am not able to fix them automatically :)

Is this an internal IIM organization or is it a private company? (Not clear from the text.) -- Regent's Park ( Boating Lake) 16:30, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
The ISG is an internal IIM-C team. It's almost entirely student run. More info on the ISG is available on JokaTimes. -- Aurorion ( talk) 08:43, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
I think we should also add a paragraph on present course fee. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.241.123.2 ( talk) 06:38, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
While agreeing to the fact that IIM Calcutta is one of the best institutions in India, I can't help noticing that much of the article tries to promote the institute. Pay attenetion to Wikipedia's guidelines for articles related to universities or colleges( Wikipedia:College and university article guidelines)
Wikipedia is not the place for academic boosterism - do not praise an academic institution but describe it using neutral language and verifiable facts.
In addition, the use of peacock terms and other words to avoid is strongly discouraged (e.g., "University of Z is a highly prestigious…" or "Z College is a renowned…") Remember, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an admissions pamphlet and these pieces of fluff actually lower the prose to an unprofessional level.
In the lead, do not use rankings to synthesize an image of the institution, whether good or bad. Give one factual statement summarising overall "most recent" rankings obtained in key surveys (for example, "In 2010, institution A has been ranked #3 by The Economist, #5 by The New York Times and #8 by Financial Times."). In the lead, do not give the sub factor rankings obtained in each survey (for example, details like "ranked #x in placements" or "ranked #3 in research" should not be given in lead at all).
Student life —
Per Wikipedia's notability and external linking policies, do not include minor or common activities or provide links to homepages. As before, do not attempt to include an exhaustive list of all student activities or present the list of activities as embedded lists.
So, the rankings given in the lead/intro has to be removed. And the article has to be rewritten in a Neutral Point of View. 61.14.17.120 ( talk) 12:12, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
There is excessive dependence on the website of IIM Calcutta to support exceptional claims within this article. One example (and there are many others) is the fellow program description. Words like "versatile" etc have been used synthesized from the IIM Calcutta website description. This goes against our Exceptional policy. Please read up Primary to understand why exceptional claims cannot be based on primary sources purely. Kindly provide reliable, secondary sources that support the exceptional details within this article; else, tone them down to a neutral point of view immediately please. In case you need assistance, I can do that too. Thanks. Wifione Message 18:29, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
"Over 220 FPM students have been awarded doctoral titles by IIM-A so far. The programme provides participants the opportunity to pursue an academic or corporate career."
"Pursuing academic or corporate career" - could we use the word versatile to describe it, or should it be written as given in the article. Anbu121 ( talk) 02:36, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
"Indian Institute of Management Calcutta" is the full name of the institute which has been proved already in other talks. Thus do not write IIMC as IIM-C. This doesn't make any sense. Would you write NYSE as NY-SE? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pritish nike ( talk • contribs) 12:10, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
