The WikiProject U.S. Cities standards might help.

It is, because under COPPA, the names of those under 13 must have parental consent to have their full names or addresses posted on the internet. It is somewhat of common law (and more of a moral standpoint) that you really shouldn't put someone's name on the internet without their permission, or if they're over the age of majority (between 18-21 years of age, I know under Alabama law, the age of majority is 19). It is more appropriate to put the person's first name and last initial. (i.e. John D.)

T.J. - That statement is not true. In and of itself, there is nothing illegal (or in my opinion inherently unsafe) with putting an individual's full name on the web (or in print).

For anyone who may edit this article, please note that is NOT safe nor legal to put someone's full name on a webpage without their consent.

Please keep this in mind throughout WikiPedia, the WikiMedia Network, and the WWW

People need to stop posting about Vienmont and Fairvew Schools in the education section! This article is about the CITY OF CULLMAN not the towns of Vienmont and Fairveiw.......please feel free to post abou those schools on the article for those towns instead of the city of Cullman! Thankyou, Admin

I removed the existing infobox because it was missing an appropriate image and seemed to be improperly formatted. JodyB 21:57, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
