Talk:Blair Academy

comments

No, thats not true. The Blair-Peddie one is the oldest.

This article needs cleanup from the last time I worked on it. Copying school admissions literature and tracts from local history books is plagiarism, and needs to be weeded out. —ExplorerCDT 15:30, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

And it's untrue. The Newark Academy-Pingry football rivalry is New Jersey's oldest, dating to the 1870s. Daniel Case 4 July 2005 05:23 (UTC)

National prep wrestling championships

The article claims Blair Academy won 26 straight, but St. Edward High School (Lakewood, Ohio) claims they won some during those years so I added a citation needed tag. It could be due to something like different prep and national titles, but I couldn't find anything when I searched for it. Either way it needs a citation and an explanation. - Taxman ^Talk 14:46, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

CIO editing

Hi Bhrockenfeller and welcome to Wikipedia. One of the first things you're going to need to do is read the guidelines at WP:COI because we have rather strict expectations of editors who want to make changes to their own organization's article. As that guideline will tell you, going forward you should declare your conflict of interest on this talk page and generally make requests for changes here, rather than performing them yourself in the article. This first change is probably fine as it's a strictly factual, numeric change, however you absolutely must add a citation to a reliable, secondary source for those numbers. Stating in your edit summary that some administrators gave you the numbers will not do. Please add a source for those soon, or they're likely to be reverted. If you have any questions, feel free to ask here and we'll be happy to help. -- Fyrael (talk) 15:04, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
