Thank you for your explanation. I agree we shouldn't add too much information or replicate what is already in the official websites. We’re concerned that people will look to Wikipedia for information on the scheme and as it is currently it includes incorrect information, which we’d like to see corrected. If it can’t be corrected, then would it be possible to have it removed, please.
Of particular concern are the sections on - the Alumni programme, which runs only for FIVE years and not ten - the success rate, which is NOT 1 % for those who apply directly from graduate school - please delete - (competition criteria) Applicants must not have held more than two postdoctoral positions - INCORRECT, please delete
