thread_title: High Importance but only start

message: Saw the merge notice. Definitely not. TCHS and HCI are two different schools. HCI is not the school that was founded by Tan Kah Kee, and TCHS was not incorporated with HCJC. So no. -- Миборовский U|T|C|M|E|Chugoku Banzai! 00:18, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  No merge 

message: Since the former HCJC and TCHS are at the current point in time merged and functioning as one school, with merged CCAs (e.g. EC³), staff departments, etc. I think that the three articles should be merged although the JC section & High School section should have their own separate sections for history,etc. in the new article. Information concerning the school from 2005 onwards should be in a combined section though. --Wonglkd 11:47, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In case you haven't read, this article is about The Chinese High School, 1919-2004, not HCI. HCI does not and never will represent The Chinese High School 1919-2004. So, no merge. -- Миборовский U|T|C|M|E|Chugoku Banzai! 23:23, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Disagreed. We can have the history of the school in a section under HCI. Frankchn 14:36, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The section about TCHS in HCI should only be a brief intro. This merge is like asking to merge History of Colonial Singapore with History of Republican Singapore... Though the two are closely related, they are not equivalent. Each article should only cover its own area. 23:22, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Anyway, is there any point in having the school song there? Especially in a wikipedia article? -- minghan 15:59, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Why not? It's relevant. -- Миборовский 22:20, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  School song 

message: Was just curious, what mediums did Chinese schools like TCHS use before the standardisation into Putonghua, and later Simplified and whatnot? Since even in 1980 Mandarin speakers were only at 26%, goodness knows what it was in 1922. Since there would have been far more dialects than Standard Mandarin, did they have to use dialects in the classroom? Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (Be eudaimonic!) 09:09, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: traditional chinese? don't forget that the current school song, although only written in the 1970s, is in traditional chinese. Lao She taught in the school in 1929. I think he would have used traditional chinese. However, I do admit that maybe dialects was used to communicate ideas as most youths at that time should know how to speak dialects -- most likely their first language before they picked up chinese. -- mh 12:42, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Traditional Guanhua (not called Putonghua at the time, IIRC). -- Миборовский 00:02, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
