Image:Centralcoastgrammar.jpg

Hi You might like to update this image with a second fair use rationale for it's use on Independent Schools Association. In my opinion, it's use on that article is not in line with fair use in that it is "purely decorative" which is not in line with "fair use of copyright material". No discussion or analysis of Central Coast Grammar takes place at the Independent Schools Association article. Thanks,Garrie 04:14, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Same for other schools in that series. I have been tagging these logos {{nrd}}, other than the ones you have uploaded with an actual fair use rationale (as is indicated on the fair use licence template).Garrie 04:17, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

St Stanislaus College (Bathurst)

Thank you for salvaging this article from being a dumping ground of Schoolcruft. Sorry for all the speedy tagging of school logos. But they weren't in line with the Fair Use policies and other discussion hasn't worked in the past.Garrie 04:00, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Category:Presbyterian schools

Hi Loopa. Great work on the PLC and related articles!

I just thought I would explain why I reversed your edit to Category:Presbyterian schools. It is already in Category:Christian schools which is a subcategory of Category:Schools by religious affiliation. The Catholic and Anglican schools categories are in that category on their own, but I think putting us Pressies there would be a step towards duplicating Category:Christian schools and defeating the purpose of subcategories.

That's my view anyway. If you choose to revert my edit I'm not going to get tied up in knots about it.

Keep up the great work!! Blarneytherinosaur ^gabby? 23:41, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey J Bar, Just wanted to compliment you on your picture of the Presbyterian Ladies' College, Sydney. It amazing! Nice work. Hope you don't mind that i've added it to the PLC article.Loopla 01:13, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Inaburra School

Thanks for your good work on this article Loopla

You might like to check the reference to Sutherland Baptist Church. I don't think there was ever such a church.

Update (30/7/07): I just checked with someone close to this school and they tell me there definitely was a Sutherland Baptist Church, which relocated to Menai before the opening of the school.

Further comment (22/11/2007). Inaburra continues to be on my watch-list - and obviously yours. Thanks for undoing the revisions/garbage regularly posted to this article which emanate from a source/sources (?) which obviously 'have it in' for this school. I'll continue to watch the article, but you've probably got more predictable time and expertise to do the revisions...

fair-use rationale

Hey there. School logos again... I saw that there was a fair-use rationale at Image:StStanislausCrest.jpg explaining it's use at St Stanislaus College (Bathurst). Which is good. HOWEVER, the fair use policy requires a matching fair-use rationale in close proximity to the image in the article as well. I have added that rational in this edit.

Cheers, Garrie 22:52, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

No worries. I think that some fair-use rules are seriously hard to work out. Garrie 05:16, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Where in the Fair use rationale guideline do you see that the rationale must be also added in the article? I'm pretty familiar with the FUG and (a) I've never heard of or seen this requirement and (b) I can't find such a requirement in the guideline. Please clarify. --ElKevbo 16:39, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

OK, it's not at Wikipedia:Non-free content or in the Fair use rationale guideline. I can't actually track down where I saw it while I was on the particular issue of misuse of fair-use images (which started simply as me being annoyed about incorrect tagging of an image used in a particular article).

My reasoning is, in isolation (that is looking soley at the image page) you cannot see if the fair use rationale matches how the image is used in the article. If the rationale is placed directly in the article then someone reviewing can see that in fact the rationale used does not match the way the image is used.Garrie 21:32, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Questions about images used for school

Hello, I am thinking about adding some more photos for St Andrew's Cathedral School, and I am just wondering about the license for the photo, so just would like to see if you know the answer or not.

I found some images in Picture Australia website, one example is this: http://libapp.sl.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/spydus/ENQ/PM/FULL1?13270,I

The "date of work" for this photo is in 1944, which is over 60 years ago already. However, under the image, it said "This image is provided for research purposes only and must not be reproduced without the prior permission of the State Library of NSW."

So can I use a image like this for the school article?

Thanks

Lavalla Catholic College

Hi Loopla

I just saw your edit on the Lavalla Catholic College page. You removed referenced information about a student who won an international (Australasian) neuroscience competition. I was just wondering if there is any part of this information that could be included as it is something that is notable, and sets Lavalla apart from other schools and thus should be included. Is it the reference to a minor the thing that should be excluded because if this is the case then I know of a number of school articles that list school captains who are likely also to be minors. Information that should perhaps also be removed.

Could you also give me some examples of what should be included in the article? It would be great if you could contribute to the Lavalla talk page. I was under the impression that having a student winning an international competition would be sufficient to be considered notable. Even more notable when you consider that it is a rural school, and yet it was written about in the Herald Sun, the Melbourne equivalent of The Daily Telegraph. Hopefully you will be able to put me on the right track as to what constitutes notability.

I see that you are a member of Wikiproject Schools, so I am hoping you might be able to give us some help. Tinkstar1985 03:10, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Notable Teacher in St Andrew's Cathedral School article

Hello,

I saw you removed the notable teacher section in the St Andrew's Cathedral School article. I added that section because in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools, it said if the teacher is "notable in their own right (for example, they have won a teaching award)". Therefore, I added that particular teacher because he was a receipent of NSW Teaching Award.

Just would like to let you know my reason for adding that section. :)

Education in Australia

What are your thoughts on creating a WikiProject for Education in Australia, which would encompass all of its schools, uni's and higher education stuff including the general articles about private and public schooling in the country? Just interested to see your opinion on the topic, given you are one of those dedicated Aust school people i have seen on wikipedia. There is a similar project: Education in Canada.

Beaconhills page move

Hi Loopla, I'm sorry about not following the correct process for moving the Beaconhills article. I've had a read of the link you sent me and now see why copy and paste is not a good idea. Do you think it would be a good idea to undo my manual move and redo it using the move page feature? I'm concerned about the lack of edit history on the new page. Your advice would be much appreciated. --SRHamilton 09:26, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

All Hallows

You are very correct, both of the daughter articles are Non-Notable. The middle school can be prodded or even speedied. Id say speedied. The football and futsal can be speedied aswell. To make it less contoversial, you may wish to just propose a merge, and we can quickly get a consensus to have them merged, then speedy the two daughter articles. I would love to remove the cruft from the main article too...it is OUT OF CONTROL =P If you ever have problems with cruft, just ask me i love schoolcruft. Cheers.

Cheers for your help. Just be BOLD :) Twenty Years 15:09, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

You are 100% correct. The first is a logo, and as such requires a fair use rationale, it prob cant be done under the GFDL. The other could indeed be this persons work, but i doubt it is. It appears to be a scanned image. I think that they should both be speedied OR get the editor to fix them up. Twenty Years 12:13, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Double warning

Hi - thought I'd let you know that I've removed the level 3 warning you left at User talk:58.173.101.118 as I'd already issued a level 2 warning for that same act of vandalism when I reverted it, and I thought it would be unfair for there to be two warnings for the same act. It may have been an edit conflict issue: sometimes I think I've reverted the vandalism, only to find when I check the history that someone else just beat me to it. If, however, you think that your warning was correctly issued, feel free to reinstate. With best wishes, Bencherlite^Talk 11:29, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

WTF? ExtraDry 11:50, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Could you please look at this evenings edits by ExtraDry and tell me if they are appropriate. I wrote a history of Newington and a bio of the current Headmaster which acknowledge the articles sources and don't seem to violate copyright. The big photos only fill the empty space left by the Presidents and Headmasters table so don't seem to do any harm. Tony Rae is an Old Boy of Scots as referenced his in wiki article by Who's Who. The Headmasters debate doesn't seem to be finished but he has removed three from the Newington Alumni list including Ian Lambert who is still under discussion for his article. It all seems disruptive. Mitchplusone 11:30, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

All the above sockpuppet do was a copy & paste. Why am i even defending myself from these socks. The photos are way to big. ExtraDry 11:36, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Not everyone is a bloody sockpuppet!!! I have nothing but respect for Mitchplusone, as he is a constructive editor open to the opinion of others. You seem to have something against anybody else making edits..if we add something (even references) you remove it, and if we remove something you put it back...its got to the point that im too scared to edit a page that I know is on your watchlist. While I occasionally agree with you..most of the time im just baffled. Rant over. Loopla 15:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Template:Rescue

Greetings, just a quick query, the Template:Rescue has now got a yellow border, I know this may sounds picky, but I chose the serious tag because what is more serious that an article that contains encyclopedic topics being deleted? Style does not really handle it as we (the Article Rescue Squadron) are not editing the layout of the document, but adding citations and sources to prevent it from being deleted mistakenly. I am refraining from editing the Template due to other issues, but could you please reconsider your edit? Fosnez 10:27, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Hey Fosnez,

I think you may have the wrong person because I definately didn't edit that template..i've actually never seen it before. Sorry I cant help! Loopla 10:30, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Ian Lambert

This article has been nominated for deletion at the exact same time as I created it - how is this done? - and so the nominator appears not to have even read it. I would apprecaite your opinion on the quality of the article and the notability of the subject. Have you any suggestions as to where I might find details of his publications so as to beef up his credentials. How do we alert Australian editors (who understand the notability of GPS headmasters) to this call for deletion? Thanks Mitchplusone 04:00, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I have moved your Who's Who reference to the intro as it is more definitive than the Newington Register reference which I have still left for Newington enrolment dates. I hope you don't mind. Mitchplusone 04:39, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Newington College Headmaster

What is your opinion on the removal of biographical details for David Scott, current Headmaster of Newington College, from the main school article. Should he have a wiki article on him, should a para about him be included in the Newington article or should he only be on a table of Headmasters or is he so lacking in notability that he should be no more than a name in the info box. Mitchplusone 12:02, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Silma Ihram

Wow, that's impressive work, Loopla. It would be great if you made an entry here. Recurring dreams 12:35, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Maybe something like:

...that Silma Ihram, an Australian convert to Islam who strived to establish a school for Muslim children, was also a political candidate for the Australian Democrats? Recurring dreams 13:01, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

That is a really good article - congratulations. Should she be listed as an old Girl of Meriden? (I'm a proud Old Girl myself!) I'll try and find a birth date. Do you know how long she was there before moving to Croydon. Also Elizabeth Broderick [1] is she Meriden or MLC. There were twin sisters (Jane is the other) and one was Head Girl at Meriden and the other Head Girl at MLC in 1978. Mitchplusone 13:22, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

My sister was born in 1955 and left Meriden in 1973 so a 1954 dob and 1971 leaving date is plausible. Meriden has a centenary history but no register to the best of my knowledge. A class date (Class of ' 64) should always be the HSC year no matter if a person left early they are still a member of the last class Leaving Cert or HSC year - so her PLC reference should be Class of '71. It would be good if all Aussie alumni lists could use that style or at least have the years at a school (1973-1978). How can we confirm Richard Maddrell as an Old Boy of Scots. He was there, but the reference "I used to go to dances with him" isn't going to keep ExtraDry happy! Have a look at the David Scott Headmaster mess at Newington if you have a chance. Thanks Mitchplusone 13:57, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Notable Australian Presbyterians

Hi Loopla,

Thanks for the list of Notable Australian Presbyterians at Presbyterian Church of Australia. It is similar to List of notable American Presbyterians, and List of famous Australian Presbyterians which I created very early in my Wiki-ing which was deleted as a copyright vio (and also needed a independent source or two). I'm thinking we should migrate this list to a separate article like that because 1) it is a list and I think they are discouraged where possible, and 2) it means we can put all the Australian Presbyterians there without having to figure out whether they were members of the Presbyterian Church of Australia or not. At the moment the list contains at least one who actually doesn't qualify on that ground - Reverend William Miller of the Free Presbyterian Church of Victoria. There may be others, particularly early on, who were also actually members of the other Presbyterian denominations in Australia (though there was a bit of coming and going between them). What do you think? Blarneytherinosaur ^gabby? 04:58, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia

Loopla, is a school a member of the Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia or is a Headmaster, Headmistress or Principal a member of the Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia. You seem to accept the former as being ther case as you add it and reference it but my undestanding is that the comment would be more correct if it read "The Headmistress of Meriden School is a member of the Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia." The association is an association of Heads not schools. Mitchplusone 09:02, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

If you read the AHISA Constitutuion it is clearly he Head that is appointed not the school and the school doesn't remain a member after the head retires - and an acting head isn't a member. If a school sacks its head and appoints another AHISA doesn't just ask the new head to be a member. They will need to be convinced that the relationship between the governing body and the head is appropriate blah blah blah. You say "Principals of these schools are automatically members" but there is no set group of schools hence the name Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia rather than "Association of Heads of the Independent Schools of Australia". In the case of the conferences that merged to form AHISA it was certainly the Heads were appointed rather than the schools being members. Does it matter at a wikilevel? I think so but I wouldn't change your wording. Give it some thought and maybe in the future .... Mitchplusone 12:55, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

List of Shore Old Boys

Thanks for your very thorough updating of this list. Given that you seem to have access to a wide range of sources, I was wondering whether you can find any information to verify the fact that Basil Holmes Travers (former Headmaster and Rhodes Scholar) also captained England in Rugby Union (before returning home to Australia after university study). Additionally, I had understood that Neville Emery (old boy, former master and father of Phillip Emery the test cricketer) was at one stage captain of the Australian rugby union team and in fact played in a match against BH Travers. This would have occurred some time during the 1940s.--Calabraxthis 06:07, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

This user made edits over the 2nd of November - this is not me, but appears to be someone with some detailed knowledge of Westbourne. We do not want 2 Westbourne IT users editing this site. Is there anyway to identify or stop the unauthorised user?

Thanks, Larissa Westbourne IT 22:22, 15 November 2007 (UTC)16/11/07

Macgregor State High school

The reason why i have been removing content from Macgregor State High School is due to the fact that the part i am removing is not sufficently sourced. Sure there is an article that suggests that a fight took part at the school but this article does not 100% confirm that it took place at the school or involved school students therefore the article is not a sufficent source.

I ask that you revert your eedit to the page and investigate the sources before you take action in the future.

Damage to page coordinates

I've noticed on a couple of occassions (eg. Frensham School) that when fixing spelling, the bot has also put a space between "inline,title" in the articles coordinates thus making it a red link. I have reverted the ones i've found..but can this be fixed? Thanks. Loopla (talk) 01:27, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Ah, that's an interesting one. Thanks for pointing it out. I've added an exception so it won't try to add spaces to coord templates in future. Cheers, CmdrObot (talk) 21:47, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Loopla, I appreciate the reference you put in about the 2001 Sun-Herald article. Unfortunately the link goes to a pay-to-view page. Are you able to fix this so people can see the article you are referring to?

Longueville, history

Hello Loopla, thank you for your excellent edits on this article. It occurs to me when I re-read this that another relevant source of the name of Longueville originates in Chateaudun in France. I formerly lived in Longueville and was encouraged by other older locals in the area to visit Chateaudun when I travelled to France (in 1993) as it possessed both a Longueville and a Dunois wing to the castle, which was understood locally to be the origin of the naming of the suburb. Dunois Street is one of the main streets in Longueville. I have made consequential amendments to the article. Kind regards--Calabraxthis 16:33, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
