With all due respect, based on what does the article base the claim that Bilkent in an "eminent university worldwide" and that it "ranks high internationally". Let's review the usual international university rankings. Each year, the Times Higher Education ranks the 200 best universities in the world, and Bilkent doesn't make it into these top-200; Newsweek rank the Top 100 Global Universities and Bilkent is not among these either; the most common university ranking, Academic Ranking of World Universities ranks the top 500 universities in the world and Bilkent is not among those 500; it also ranks the 100 best universites in each continent and Bilkent is missing from the Asian top 100 as well. Taking all of this together, the evidence for Bilkent not being that highly ranked internationally is rather overwhelming while there are no sources to support that it would be.

As of September 17, 2010; Bilkent is now #112 in The Times Higher Education's list of 200 best universities in the world (incidentally #1 in Turkey). I edited the page to reflect this fact and to remove an outdated ranking.

For 2011-2012 Times Higher Education ranks Bilkent between 201 and 225 (I think if logged in the exact number will be shown). I have changed the page to reflect this. Velle (talk) 07:41, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
