Waterloo Co‑operative Residence Inc.

Would it be appropriate to make a brief mention of the Waterloo Co‑operative Residence Inc. in the student housing section? The university has no involvement in it, but this is a major student residence and immediately adjacent to campus. It's the largest student housing cooperative in North America.

That does seem important. What specifically do you have in mind as to what to include? 2620:101:F000:7C1:0:0:0:4079 (talk) 07:21, 9 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Not much since we can link to the article about it. A sentence or two to cover the founding date, its location, the number of residents (and maybe the number of residence buildings), and a very brief explanation that it is a student housing cooperative rather than a university venture.

I'm gong to add this unless anyone objects. Full disclosure: I attended the University of Waterloo, but I was not a member of the Waterloo Co‑operative Residence Inc. so I don't see any COI issue. Meters (talk) 19:09, 25 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

done (although I did not mention the founding date): Meters (talk) 23:36, 1 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
