Before you work on any school page make sure that you view the policies on information about living people. You should also be aware of Wikipedia's notability guidelines, especially as they relate to people like faculty and alumni.

Wikipedia does not permit original research (things you come up with all by yourself). Instead, you should research and paraphrase information you find from reliable sources. Be sure you do not violate any copyrights. Also, make sure to reference the information you use.

Use this talk page to coordinate with other editors, propose or describe changes, ask questions about editing, suggest new sources or information, recommend the removal of unreliable sources, etc. This is not a page to discuss the school itself ("I like this school because…" "Don't you hate…") or your social life at the school. This page is for discussing the article and how best to edit it.

Cleanup

edit

I did not feel that Barry Regan was notable alumni I looked him up over the internet looks like he was in a speech comp in 2005 and came in 214 place. other then that no information.

The Belief System section is inappropriately C&P from the school's website. It should be completely rewritten (or removed). Zedla 13:20, 1 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Copyvio

edit

Article was mostly copied from the school's website [1]. I've removed it. Template doesn't show the link properly, possibly because of the .php rather than .html. Shimeru 23:24, 8 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

New temp subpage with the referenced copyvio removed. Zedla 20:25, 30 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Unencyclopedic content

edit

This article is getting out of hand with its huge lists of subjects, other activities, and clubs, which need to be either completely deleted, or pruned down to an absolute minimum.. The correct source for information on building school articles is at WP:WPSCH/AG. Please also refer to school articles of GA status to see how this is achieved, for example: Malvern College, a high school in England, and Hanley Castle High School. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:02, 21 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Cleaned up

I've cleaned up the lists. Ideally they should be converted to prose per WP:MOS. Every school has clubs, the club list should be pruned to the essentials. External lists also need pruning per WP:EL. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 04:14, 28 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
