Talk:Christopher Columbus High School (Miami-Dade County, Florida)

message: I've removed a good portion of this article that read like a brochure.  No offense to the people who've been working hard on it, but it wasn't reading very much like an encyclopedia article.  At least it's more of a stub at the moment.  Bastique▼parler voir 19:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Copied material 

message: What happened to the list of important people that graduated from CCHS? This page had a lot of useful good information, But it seems to have been deleted. If having a list of Clubs is not like an encyclopedia article and reads like an ad, then why do other high school's encyclopedia articles have a list of clubs? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 205.188.116.196 (talk • contribs) 04:09, 18 September 2006  (UTC)
:They should be deleted from those articles as well. —Centrx→talk • 18:15, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of famous alumni, clubs? 

message: *Raoul G. Cantero, III is notable because he is a justice of the Florida Supreme Court not because of who his grandparents or parents might be.. That information should be placed in his article (which it is) not here.. Only the name of the person, the year of his graduation and what his occupation is or what makes him notable.Callelinea 18:43, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Two years after 66.184.162.219 commented on it, most of the alumni are still not referenced as having attended the school. Here's a start, with some URLs but it's a big job to condense all of these into proper s:

http://www.columbushs.com/content/top50catholic04.pdf Raoul G. Cantero, III
http://www.miamitodaynews.com/news/051006/story5.shtml http://www.columbushs.com/alumni/newsletter/Fall05.pdf Jorge Mas Santos
http://www.columbushs.com/alumni/newsletter/Summer05.pdf Hernan OrganvidezWould any of the major authors of the page be interested in working to improve this? I think it's reasonable to use the school as a source (as above), but as a matter of principle, we should be careful using a source so close to the subject matter of the article (as opposed to an independent reference). Every person on this list ought to be cited as having attended the school, and additionally, cited for their notability (those are separate requirements). TheFeds 15:49, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Proper references for alumni

message: I removed the copyright tag because I wrote most of the page's content. I did not copy any printed document, I personally spoke to a member of the school's adminstration. While I agree that the content might need a citation needed tag in areas, it does not need a copyright tag. NancyHeise  talk 22:21, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is that the text appears at the school's website. How do we know that you are the author and/or the rightsholder of that text? —C.Fred (talk) 22:24, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm sorry, you are correct, I just saw that the history section had plagiarized the school website. I did not write that section but I changed the wording in the entire section to eliminate the plagiarism. The rest of the article is not word for word from the site and the sentences that I inserted are cited to that site. NancyHeise  talk 01:22, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: And now I see that you've not only removed the tag but reworded the section. Problem solved. —C.Fred (talk) 01:28, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: copyright tag

message: This article needs a better picture of the school in the lead. I also would like to suggest that a student might want to consider improving this article and trying to get it to Featured status. See WP:FA, WP:FAC and WP:peer review. I would be happy to assist in the process if you like. NancyHeise  talk 02:16, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Lead picture

message: An anonymous editor just changed the campus size from 24 to 30 acres. In the history section, the campus size is mentioned at 19 acres. Do we have a reliable source on how big the campus is? —C.Fred (talk) 23:27, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, I don't have a specific source to offer and I was not the anonymous editor btw. However, I can tell you that the school sits on a very large piece of land owned by the Archdiocese of Miami that also includes St. Brendan Catholic Church, another Catholic High School (co-ed) and St. John Vianney Seminary. The entire piece of land is huge and while there is a fence between the co-ed school, seminary, and Columbus, there is no fence between Columbus and the Catholic Church which is also used by the school so I can see where the lines may have become fuzzy there with regard to acres.
