Lawrence School, Sanawar

Hi, re: your copyvio tag at Lawrence School, Sanawar ... it would not surprise me if you are correct but could you please indicate what it is that you feel the article content is violating? Just drop an explanation on the article talk page. From my experience, all you usually need to do is provide a link to the source that you think is being violated. - Sitush (talk) 01:16, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Oops, that was supposed to go above the section, not below it. Fixed, thanks for pointing it out. Pilif12p 02:25, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for repsonding, and I understand. I sort of had that feeling, but it still doesn't explain what is being violated. Is this stuff all coming from the school's official site? I have trouble sometimes connecting through to India-hosted websites, especially (but not limited to) those whose domain name ends ".nic.in". The "nic" is the Indian "national informatics centre", and they seem to have fingers in a lot of pies but seem often not to be able to sort out their own routing etc. I guess that is a consequence of being some sort of official body, with a wide remit that potentially covers the public sector sphere of 20% of the world's population ... and then they take on private/commercial work also.

There is a phenomenal amount of copyvio'd stuff on India/Pakistan related articles and I sometimes despair of trying to fix them, but a hint is always handy :) Best wishes and, yes, even without checking it out I am pretty sure that you were correct to tag. That's experience for you! - Sitush (talk) 02:43, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Jefferson High School (Cedar Rapids, Iowa), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Swimming and Cross Country (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
