  1. Ranking success was due to the inability (failure?) of HE experts and bibliometricians to provide simple understable summaries of their results. In many cases the results were intentionally open to interpretation of the end-users, no a huge problem because these belongs to the academia.

    U-Multirank is intended to perpetuate that old model: A lot of information that anybody can use at will, but with a big difference. End-users are not longer experts with a deep knowledge of the indicators but young students, their parents, journalists and politicians.

    U-Multirank useless model can be translated as "many customised ranks is no rank at all"
