January 2020 edit

  Hello, I'm Sek-2. I noticed that you recently removed content from Microsoft Windows without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Reynella Primary School edit

Hi Gold Wario! I saw the conversation at Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions#Should_I_upload_or_not?. I wanted to give you a link regarding primary school inclusion standards for Wikipedia; WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Please be aware that Wikipedia has standards for inclusion of topics, and even though something exists it often isn't enough for it to be included in Wikipedia. With schools, there's general acceptance of high schools being notable by default for inclusion in Wikipedia. Middle schools and primary schools, not so much. That doesn't mean we can't have an article on this school. Rather, you'll need to find significant, reliable, secondary sources about the school that attest to its notability beyond just being a primary school. I'm happy to help you with this if you need. Is this school notable for something beyond being a school? --Hammersoft (talk) 15:01, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi Hammersoft Yes there is lots of history about this school even tho its a primary school the page to the history of the school is here: https://www.reynellaps.sa.edu.au/about/history/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gold Wario (talkcontribs)
  • That source would count as a primary source, being that it comes from the school itself. It's not usable, by itself, to develop an article. It can be used, but for the article to be included here we need to find significant coverage in secondary sources. Think of it this way; let's make up a person "John Babcock". John wants to seen an article about himself on Wikipedia. He says he's notable. For proof of that, he supplies only that he says he's notable. So, he's notable because he says he's notable? See how that becomes a problem? :) --Hammersoft (talk) 23:30, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Yeah that is the only source of infomation i could really find Gold Wario (talk) 23:40, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • Not to worry. There's plenty of other work to do around here! There's a standard welcome template which I will post here below. If you have questions, let me know. --Hammersoft (talk) 00:18, 25 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
