Wait! Please read the school article guidelines before posting. Elementary/primary schools and middle schools must clearly show why they are important, and must satisfy the criteria for organisations. The usual answer here is that you need more reliable sources to demonstrate the school is notable and to support the claims made in the article.

Could I ask someone to have a quick look over on User:Danjel/Rose Bay Secondary College, a draft that I've been working on to replace the stub at Rose Bay Secondary College.

I worked closely with RBSC for quite a few years until earlier this year, so I want to be careful that I haven't tripped over any WP:COI issues. I'm also trying not to include any information that will require references that I simply don't have.

If suggestions could be made at User talk:Danjel/Rose Bay Secondary College, I'd appreciate it. Cheers. I'm cross posting this from WP:EIA. -danjel (talk to me) 06:15, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

 – To Talk:Temasek Secondary School#Listing of all achievements, etc.. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:28, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Is there a general consensus about whether we should go about listing out every single achievement and award won by the school? This has been a problem among quite a few Singapore schools, where opinions differ (quite greatly I might add) about whether those things should be included wholly or simply summarised (perhaps highlighting some notable achievements or the like). An example would right now be Temasek Secondary School, where a discussion is currently going on.

Also, I think Temasek Secondary School is no longer a Stub and should be reclassified into Start/something higher. Would someone kindly take a look at it and provide comments as well? Thanks. AngelSL (talk) 09:13, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Without checking on the contribs of individual users, the article is neutral and well referenced, even if in places it goes a bit OTT on detail.

Central Elementary School (Albemarle, North Carolina)

The problem is that a historic school has changed names. It is of course Wikipedia policy (or at least a guideline) that we use the current building name, in this case Central Elementary School. I have used names for buildings in articles I have written only to have the articles moved. So I knew the current name for this building was the best.

The problem is that the elementary school currently occupying the building was in another location for 82 years. Longer if you go by what the school was called for 25 to 50 years before that (I'm having trouble pinning down accurate sources for the construction date). The other location has been vacant for seven years.

A Wikipedia article on this school would surely mention the history of the "school" during those 82 years and of course the 25-50 years the school existed before that. But the building the school now occupies is what makes it notable. An elementary school is not notable enough for Wikipedia. A historic elementary school is, though it is the building that is historic. The elementary school's previous building might be, but I thought it was just too far gone to save, unlike the historic building where the school is now.

I tried explaining this to another editor who wanted to help me with the article, but this editor is so confused he/she can't make productive contributions. I end up having to revert most of them. The last time, I got no repsonse from this person, and so far he/she hasn't said anything. But the last edit summary had incorrect information in it, and it is clear from that and the editor's talk page comment (not the article talk page) that he/she just doesn't understand. While it is all clear to me, I do have the knowledge of what is going on with these buildings. The article is inadequate if it doesn't explain the situation to this person's satisfaction.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 20:22, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Jack and Jill School

This is an elementary school. I don't think they're notable, but I'd like some additional opinions. There's a lot of sources, but they don't seem like significant coverage to me because they seem to be mainly lists of kids winning awards and that doesn't seem to set them apart from most elementary schools. Thanks. Mdtemp (talk) 19:21, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Morgan City High School

I think a well-intentioned, fairly new editor may be heading for conflict which might be avoided with a little judicious advice. I ran across some colloquy between the new editor, who is the recent major contributor to the article and a couple of other editors whom I know to be patient, fair, decent and diligent regarding the effort to improve the encyclopedia. I wonder if an early intervention from here might keep things from escalating. See [1] and this section. It's the school article guidelines that the editor doesn't seem to grasp. The editor didn't take the advice of the good doctor, but they might hear it from this project, since a misunderstanding of the project guidelines are the fundamental issue. If I were to step in, however, I believe I would be perceived as yet another "WikiNazi" piling on, as I am not involved in the project. May wiser heads prevail.

Colors field in school-related infoboxes

Neither {{Infobox school}} nor {{Infobox school district}} give guidance about the ordering to be used with the colors/colours/school_colors/school_colours fields. Presumably one lists school colors from top to bottom (viz., caps/helmets, jerseys, shorts/pants, footwear). What about foreground (i.e., lettering, lettering border (if any)) versus background? Varsity versus junior varsity? Perhaps the description should be explicit (e.g. "      Black with white lettering and royal blue highlights")? Feel free to update the template descriptions. Thanks in advance. -- DanielPenfield (talk) 04:33, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

One lists whatever colors are reported by reliable independent sources. Generally there are only two. The field on question is not for a visual description of a uniform, but for the official school colors. In the US, those colors are reported to the state athletic sanctioning body and they would be the best source. We generally do not include any Information on sub varsity teams.John from Idegon (talk) 04:50, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response, but...

Your statement	My response
One lists whatever colors are reported by reliable independent sources.	Could you provide an example? Template:Infobox_school#U.S._school_example does not cite any sources for school colors. Also, Cuba-Rushford High School cited on Template:Infobox school does not cite any sources for school colors. Neither do other high-profile US high schools that I can think of (e.g., New Trier High School, Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology, The Bronx High School of Science, Boston Latin School, Los Angeles High School, Central High School (Philadelphia))
In the US, those colors are reported to the state athletic sanctioning body and they would be the best source.	Can you give an example showing where/how they're reported so that others can properly cite articles? For Cuba-Rushford High School cited on Template:Infobox school, [2] produces results, but [3] produces no results and [4] produces results with only "blue" or "silver" in other school/school district names.

-- DanielPenfield (talk) 05:37, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

You are considerably over complicating this. Sources do not have to be cited to exist. Some articles have crap content. The one thing we do not do is look at the color of their uniforms and describe them. I am not at all clear on what your chart is supposed to show. Again, most state sanctioning organizations have the school colors in their school directories. Perhaps another editor might have a more specific source for New York. Also, most schools list their school colors somewhere on their websites. Suboptimal, but usable if nothing else exists. Without any actual source, just leave it out. John from Idegon (talk) 07:28, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

BTW, school colors extend well beyond the athletic field. As an example, the leather folder that holds my high school diploma is purple with gold lettering, my alma mater's official colors. If the school has a student uniform, generally the colors are reflected somewhere in it. Caps & gowns, official letterhead, sometimes even the colors of structures, all these things can and often do reflect the school's colors. John from Idegon (talk) 07:39, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

If you want an example check out Central Catholic High School (Bloomington, Illinois). I cited the school's strategic plan as the source for the school colors. Presumably this is acceptable as non-controversial self-published information per WP:ABOUTSELF. The most reliable source about a school's colors is the school itself so I don't see why independent sources would be required. EyeTripleE (talk) 20:13, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

On the talk page for this article there is a discussion about the section listing previous head teachers that would benefit from a second opinion. Would anyone be willing to take a look? More general suggestions for improvement gratefully received as well, of course! If there is a question of insufficient citations, it would be appreciated if the cn tag was used, rather than deleting text. Most of the history section comes from a book that was written on the history of the school, so I haven't repeated the same citation on every sentence. Rhanbury (talk) 12:47, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Almost all of the history section has now been deleted because the main source was historical research contained in a book that the school paid for, hence was deemed a non-independent source, however well supported the individual facts were by original historical documents. See discussion on the talk page. Other sections have also been deleted, for various reasons. The article is now rather thin for a school of this age and academic ranking. As a conflicted editor (the Headmistress is my wife) I have agreed not to touch the article directly.

Hi, Nolan Perry, this is an article that you will have to write yourself because no one will be interested in contributing to it as it will be promotional and difficult to meet Wikipedia's notability requirements. It does not come under the tutelage of WikiProject Schools, it comes under Wikipedia:WikiProject Business and is subject to the more rigorous requirements of notability at WP:CORP. You will almost certainly need to make a balanced article that also includes the accusations of the organisation being a scam.

I think it should be changed to say the high school closed in 2013. Perhaps there's precedence others are aware of that would be helpful. Gab4gab (talk) 05:41, 2 July 2019 (UTC)

Feodor-Lynen-Gymnasium Planegg

Dear portal members,

The article of the Feodor-Lynen-Gymnasium Planegg in Germany has been created recently by a students group of this school. May the project please check the hole article in order to correct some language mistakes that are maybe still in article? That would be fine!

Have a nice day!

Best regards and thank you in advance,

Draft:Indian School Ajman

Hello! Draft:Indian School Ajman is an article I've been working for quite some time now. It has been 10 days since I submitted it for review. I've made several changes since, adhering to Wikipedia guidelines.

I'm quite new to the whole process, so I was wondering if someone could have a quick look and give me some reviews on it. Thanks in advance! ZennieG (talk) 18:33, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Rustam School

I'm currently working on Draft:Rustam School, which is a language school. Are there any special policies of language schools? Bᴇʀʀᴇʟʏ • ^Talk∕_Contribs 13:52, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

@Berrely: This is just a personal opinion, but given the current WP bureaucracy, I can't see this being accepted for main space whatever you do to it. It will be seen as just a Saturday School- and therefore not notable. A better bet would be to work it up in Fortismere School#Hosting the Rustam School as a section. It can be reached by a redirect. If the text becomes overly large then you have a stronger case for a stand alone article. And no, I don't know of any specific advice pages. Happy to talk.

Hurst Lodge School

Advice about this one please. Hurst Lodge School was an independent school which merged with Hawley Place School, for which we do not have an article - there is a reference at Hawley, Hampshire#Amenities. The merged school was on the Hawley Place site and used the name HawleyHurst. This school apparently went into administration and closed in 2020 (unreferenced statement in Hurst Lodge article). The school has now re-opened, still on the Hawley Place site but now using the name Hurst Lodge. This needs to be acknowledged in the Hurst Lodge article somehow - text from the new school's website has already been added twice and reverted. Should the new school have a new article as it is a different site? The new iteration of Hurst Lodge has a different URN to its previous incarnation, but I'm not sure if it is the same as HawleyHurst's one. Thanks. Tacyarg (talk) 17:35, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

School article are, generally, more about an organization than about a building. So I think in this case a new article Hurst Lodge School (established 2020) might be written. The existing article is about a different organization which presumably was notable and it's article should not replaced with coverage of the new organization re-using the same name. Gab4gab (talk) 17:57, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for this, now done. New article could do with some watchers as there have been what appear to be CoI issues on the previous school's article - copy/paste of text from the new school'a website. Tacyarg (talk) 18:01, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

The Durham Free School

I would like to suggest the creation of a page for Durham Free School (In Durham, UK). I feel it is notable as it was one of the first free schools opened in the area, and it demonstrated how poor the free schools concept was. There was significant coverage in the news, as a result of the school underperforming, being under-utilised, receiving poor education inspection reports (Ofsted) and ultimately having its funding withdrawn by the government, directly causing its closure.

GeekBurst. you don't need to ask. You are welcome to go ahead and create the page. Our WP:WPSCHOOLS project pages contain a wealth of information, and you can view some of our school Good Articles to see how a school article is put together. We would advise creating the article in your user space as a draft then submitting it to WP:AfC for review when ready. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 15:20, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

York Memorial Collegiate Institute

Recently, there has been alot of media coverage about the violence at this school (see links). I think it is notable enough to include in the article but I'm not sure. Is it? If it is, should it be included in the history section or a new section?

Can someone have a look over the history of this article. A lot of content has been removed from the page and while much of it is indeed trivial and promotional I feel that the article is now in need of expansion. I haven't personally worked on this article because I feel like I should get some help here first Pksois23 (talk) 13:45, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Fleetwood Area School District

Hello WikiSchools Help,

I was hoping someone could look over some edits I made for this school district. It was listed with several notes about needing citations, formatting, etc. I am hoping some of these template notes can be removed now.

I am new to editing (this is for a graduate school assignment) and would like feedback. I did read the WikiProject Schools guidelines and recommendations prior to starting. Also, I am an alumna of the district, so does anyone have any suggestions/instructions for adding a COI statement?

Thanks so much!!! Ghm5z (talk) 03:13, 5 July 2024 (UTC)Ghm5z
