Talk:Wilbert Tucker Woodson High School

message: A few days ago this article mentioned a tunnel connecting Woodson and Frost: "There is a secret tunnel connecting Frost Middle School and Woodson. The entrances are across from the auxiliary gym at Woodson and behind the cafeteria at Frost." Its now gone in the current article. Does anyone know why that text was removed from the article? Does the tunnel actually exist or not? Murple 06:54, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I went to both schools, and also doubt that a tunnel exists. There is actually considerable distance between the two buildings, it would have been a fairly long tunnel. It sounds like a story to tell freshman, and a good one at that. Grasping at straws, how about a steam tunnel? I doubt it. That would be a fairly long run without a manhole, and I don't think there were any in the field, they would cause problems for gym classes and I don't recall needing to avoid them).

message: Mr Woodson was involved with the school for many years. He spoke at graduation every year, I don't know when he started or if he missed any, but he spoke at mine (1977) almost 50 years after he became superintendent of schools. I hear that he also attended many games. Does anybody know how late he attended school events? The school opened shortly afer he retired, and was clearly started on his watch. There is a story that the school board wanted to name the auditorium after him, but he asked them not to. They then met while he wasn't there and named the whole school after him.

message: Ok, this page is a reflection of Woodson, so it needs to be in better shape than this.  Here is a plan for improving to it (thus far) to Good article status:
*Add to Orchestra section in Music Programs
*Add to "Test Scores" Section and include more and more recent info on the Woodson academic traddition
*Combine "Rennovation" and "Woodson in the news" section to make one community section
*Add more information, maybe even repeat, some informatin in the "Demographics" section
OR incorporate ethnic data into the info bar on the right
*Cite more sources!!!
I will copy ths list to the top of the page  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rustyfence (talk • contribs) 01:44, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  More Stuff! 

message: Recently, several editors have been adding "Wu Tang Woodson" to the page as a common name for the school. While there is nothing wrong with including this information, the fact that it is not an official name for the school means that it must be supported by reliable sources before it can be included. This is to maintain the core concept of verifiability on Wikipedia. Therefore, I ask any editors who wish to include this name to please find reliable sources to back themselves up. Thanks!
