St Michael's Preparatory School

You do not appear to understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertisement for St Michael's Preparatory School. See for example the article on Eton College, which contains a lot of information about the history of the school, including a certain number of details which do not cast the school in a very good light (e.g. a history of abnormally severe corporal punishment). That article links to Anthony Chenevix-Trench, which includes details of the abuse which Chenevix-Trench is said to have perpetrated in the course of his career at several schools. The article on another prep school, Caldicott School, includes reference to the abuse which was perpetrated at the school more than forty years ago. I am sure that Caldicott has subsequently taken steps to ensure that child abuse does not take place there but it happened in the course of the school's past and is a historical fact which ought to be included in an article about the school. So no, I am sure that St Michael's today does not have masters like Cormack abusing the pupils, but according to very well sourced information this is alleged to have taken place in the past and there is absolutely no way that it is appropriate for the information to be removed by somebody who is pretty obviously intent on presenting the school in a good light.--Oxonian2006 (talk) 14:46, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

I might add that it seems rather inconsistent of you to berate me for including historical information about the school rather than only including information about present-day circumstances when you yourself contributed the largest amount of historical information (which you had plagiarised from elsewhere on the internet). I didn't remove any information; I just re-worded it so that it was not a direct copy of something previously published elsewhere and so that it did not include unencyclopedic information. If you really object to historical information being included on Wikipedia I suggest you try to edit articles such as University of Oxford and University of Cambridge, removing all the historical information and focusing on present-day circumstances, and see what kind of reception you receive.--Oxonian2006 (talk) 17:32, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
