Assessment: Hello all, and thank you for contributing to this school article. I'm part of the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools/Assessment team, and I'm reviewing this page. I'm currently giving it a grade of Start on the Wikipedia 1.0 Assessment Scale and an importance of Top on this importance scale. For information on improving this article, please visit the WikiProject Schools Project Page. My reasoning is as follows: Argument for article importance better referenced than article. Needs work on referencing, and expansion. Adam McCormick 03:33, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] biased content

There is little doubt that KMLA is a reputable school but the article (and the above comment) reflect a bias that is inappropriate for a wikipedia article. This space must not be used to create anything resembling an advertisement. I suggest an edit that avoids biased language. A great example of an article on a top HS that avoids bias: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuyvesant_High_School

[edit] reorganize article

I suggest the original author edit this page for conciseness and seek more exact figures on university enrollment. Basic information (date of school's founding, company responsible for founding school) should come at the beginninng of the article.

I've hear that KMLA places cameras in the student dormitory rooms. This factoid should be included along with any available information on the school's curricula and management.

[edit] A word from a high school student from Korea

This school is not famous outside Korea, but it is known to be the best high school - I am not exaggerating - in Korea.

[edit] Korean?

Is it really necessary to put Korean and Hanja in the contents of the article itself? In the English version of Wikipedia, everything that is not Korean should either be separately boxed away or introduced in parentheses. Mathboychoi 09:49, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] John stop it

Mathboichoi, SHUT UP!!!

[edit] We will reorganize

We will reorganize this webpage. /We do have cameras, but we currently are not using it due to personal privacy. /KMLA is the most prestigious high school (if not, in the top 3) in Korea_ask anyone neutral in Korea. /Isn't it not "English" instead of "Korean"? In that case, what's up for Latin?

[edit] Reputation and Notability of KMLA

It is not strange that KMLA is not well-known in the U.S. or the U.K. because people generally do not know much about prestigious high schools in foreign countries. Many Koreans who are not interested in studying in the U.S. or the U.K do not know of Philips Exeter Academy or Eton College. However, this school is currently considered as the most prestigious high school in Korea, and almost all Korean international students or Koreans living in Korea know this school because it has been highlighted by Korean mass media several times, though some Korean Americans might not have heard of this school. Without doubt, this school has enough "notability" to be included in Wikipedia. Followings are few of the Korean newspaper articles (in English) covering KMLA and its achievements. There are much more articles about this school in Korean. If someone who speaks Korean asks me for articles in Korean, I can give him/her the links to them.

[edit] Vandalism

Ran into some elementary school level vandalism on this site. Reverted to the original. User IP 125.251.12.108 really has to wash those little potty fingers. -- Robotron02 19:24, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This is not the addmission office of the school

Here is an Encyclopedia page, so don't bring in the statistic on students going to which universities.--Appletrees (talk) 13:39, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
