Issues

Basically wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so reading WP:NOT will help you to understand what wikipedia is not. Everything on wikipedia should be backed up by reliable sources, that is books, newspapers etc. that are not from the subject in question (in this case a school). Reliable sources are needed especially when controversial material is added to an article, if they arent stated, then it will most probably be removed. In this instance, if you want information to be added to the schools article about it, you can try and find a newspaper article about it (probably your best bet) and then cite that in the article. I know not everything is published, and organisations tend to hide things like this, so sourcing it will be hard, but do your best, just remember not to add information that is not verifiable. If you need any assistance, dont hesistate to contact me via my talk page. Thanks. Twenty Years 13:04, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you have some sources for the article (eg. newspapers etc) you can put it up, and id be more than willing to help you. Legally, i dont think they can do anything to you, they may be able to sue to Wikimedia Foundation, but if there are sources, you are safe. Keep me posted.

Well, basically you cant do anything on wikipedia until it is published, wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought. My suggestion would be to try and find sources on the school, so that you can improve the school article. Hope this helps. Twenty Years 05:51, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Issues - Take 2

Thanks for keeping me in the loop. Whilst these issues seem quite serious, we cant report on them here until we have a source for the information, you said these things were well publicised, so are there any sources? (eg. newspapers). Cheers. Twenty Years 10:48, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If the school is opening up their cheque book for this sort of stuff, then it should be shown in their annual reports. Might be worth speaking with the local/state newspaper to see if they can dig up any information or simply get the state department of education involved.

If it is really that bad, just leave? Twenty Years 11:26, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if you arent willing to leave, why not start your own campaign about it, making signs etc. and posting them outside the school. Might even be worth creating a website to document everything on the rumour mill. Twenty Years 01:02, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Starting a website is easy, without being promotional, there are heaps of hostingsites out there: [www.freewebs.com]. Im not sure you can make the school communist, but one way you could influence policy would be to maybe get a few representatives on the schools board or parent council. Them kicking you out would only make the problem worse for them. Possibly sending in "letters to the editor" of the local newspaper would be good. If you need any further help, dont hesistate to contact me. Twenty Years 03:50, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Just add anything from the rumour mill. Twenty Years 14:09, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
