Can you be a bit more specific about where at that website we can find information that Kristin Jauch was (a) an alumna of PLC; and (b) champion in the years you've given? -danjel (talk to me) 12:45, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, semi-protected article, how about correcting a few typos (10, I think), wait a few days so you have an edit history, join us, and do it yourself. Regards (Crusoe8181 (talk) 10:05, 18 April 2011 (UTC)).

I think that Pymble marketing might have a Conflict of Interest, hence the request.

I'll get to it shortly. -danjel (talk to me) 10:27, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Conflict of Interest is not a problem when dealing with referenced facts -the article is semi-protected so he/she cannot edit (yet), would have done it myself but we should encourage new contributors, should we not?? Regards (Crusoe8181 (talk) 10:52, 18 April 2011 (UTC)).

Better safe than sorry? I don't know. I avoid editing articles of schools with whom I work directly for the same reason... Up to you, Pymble marketing, need us to do it? -danjel (talk to me) 11:01, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Done. As I said, I'm assuming that they're trying to avoid a WP:COI issue, particularly in light of the name. I played with the wording a little bit because I wasn't quite happy with it. Any clue who the author "Turner" is? -danjel (talk to me) 09:47, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Objective much?

"Pymble Ladies' College was founded in 1916 by Dr John Marden, a man of forward thinking who believed that women should get the best that education offered. Today, the College exemplifies the spirit of its founder as an outstanding school for girls that encourages its students to 'strive for the highest' in all pursuits."

The above is about as nonobjective a statement as I have ever seen on a Wikipedia page, and needs to be addressed immediately. I think I should also submit for a flagging on this article until this is rectified. This is intended to be informative, not an advertisement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.88.35.94 (talk) 11:30, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
