message: Can you please not delete this page. I'm working on Information, but will do tomorrow. He is a author of a book series and has been on television, and is the current headmaster of the well know school King's in Sydney, Australia.
Thanks

message: Well, to add weight to him participating as a commentator to political issues in Australia, here is an article in sydney morning herald by Hawkes:
Funds squabble impoverishes schools, November 17, 2007.
My opinion is he is quoted frequently so he meets WP:BIO, I am removing the WP:N flag.58.107.80.11 (talk) 13:46, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: An article

message: It's overlinked, and in a few places POV ("Elite", hello?). Please read WP:MOS; title case needs fixing to start with. Tony (talk) 14:22, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

message: It might be helpful if we discuss our changes to this article on the talk page to get concensus. I added the criticism section (and references) because this article is very POV. If you guys have any other interesting sources or points of view, let us know, thanks. (Captain hoek (talk) 20:22, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Your changes to the Hawkes' page are unacceptable. If you think there is a reason to write "Both Tim and Jane come from very old and distinguished families" without a reference, please explain it on the talk page and we will listen (good luck). It's a waste of all the other editor's time to have an editing war with you. On the same note, stop changing 'one of australia's leading schools' to 'Australia's leading school' - you don't have a reference and even if you did it would be a POV!!! Thanks.

replies: text: Indeed: this article will be heading for the deletion category if we can't clean out the puffery. I'm sure Dr Hawkes himself would want to see the greater authority that comes from a NPOV piece. The peacock words just ruin it. Tony (talk) 06:27, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I think its relevant even if he was only a nominee, especially in light of the general criticism for his position (see references).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Captain hoek (talk • contribs) 14:49, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
