Talk:St. George's School of Montreal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Catholic?
How can the school consistently be described as both "non-denominational" and be named after a papist purported "saint"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.211.195.38 (talk) 18:07, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Merge
I merged St. George's High School (Montreal) to this page. Not least because, honestly, both pages are barely adhering to 'notability'-requirements. I'm sure the school is great, but I can guarantee you that some stuck-up old wikipedian is going to come along sooner or later and have a big speech about "encyclopedic quality" and "not a fansite", so if I were you guys, I would try to:
- clearly state why the school is notable. No, "it's a private school that believes each child..." is not a reason. Something like "it is one of the most presitigous private schools in Canada" or whatever it actually is that makes it notable (and ideally substantiated with a reference) would be much better.
- reword everything so that it is less obviously directly cut-&-pasted (which is a copyright violation, by the way) from the prospectus or calendar or website or wherever you got it from.
- ideally, 'cut the crap'. Really, try writing two or three more good paragraphs, and then remove all of the high-sounding ideals and bulleted lists. The technology section was good because it was something unique to the school. What else is unique? Write a paragraph about that.
Alright, enough tips. Good luck :) --Leviel 10:50, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
