Talk:Stockton Sixth Form College

message: Stockton Sixth Form College has been subject to sneaky vandalism with many incorrect facts being introduced and inappropriate content being submitted. This is probably being done by students of the college (see their track history). My attempts to remove this vandalism in addition to improving the grammar and spelling throughout the page has been reverted twice. Could the user responsible for this please read WP:EDITWAR and familiarise him or herself with WP:TRR and then discuss their rationale for the revert here?
I removed all comments that were not appropriate for an encyclopedia, such as "remains popular with local students" (unsourced) and "Upon entering the college [...] approximately 2 metres away to the left..." (not notable). I also had to remove a number of statements that are not true: "was opened by Marxist philosopher Louis Althusser" (false source, not true); "Paul Hopkins who before his tragic death..." (Paul Hopkins is alive and teaches at the college, this is a hoax – see ); "the architecture of which was inspired by the 1973 album 'raw power' by punk legends 'Iggy and the stooges'" (unsourced, silly vandalism) and "A successful application has now been made by the student council for an EU grant for the funding of the 'Paul Hopkins memorial center' a new site on campus for the study of literature and visual arts" (unsourced, not true).
A comment left with a reverting edit was: 
I agree that this article would benefit from expansion, but vandalism and hoaxes are not encyclopedic content and the need to expand this article is not a justification for them. If you believe that any of the content I removed is true, then please provide sources. According to WP:Verifiability, citation is required for "material that is challenged or likely to be challenged". By removing all content I have removed, I am challenging that information. Please read WP:BURDEN. It is your responsibility to prove that these statements are true, rather than my responsibility to prove that they are false. — Elyssaen (talk) 14:21, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sneaky vandalism 

message: I have checked the information provided about Stockton SFC and found the allegations of vandalism on several occasions uncalled for particularly with regards to referenced sources. There are however obvious exceptions in regards to information about members of the college faculty. All the same if you object to anything on the college page please remove only the articles you find to be incorrect rather than embarking upon a 'Mass Purge' of the article. I have been to the library and Literature on line to find the referenced sources and found an omission in the date of the college's opening but the details of who opened it were correct. Wikipedia is an open resource and any contributions should be welcomed and not rejected as vandalism by individuals believing themselves to be the sole authority on the subject. Nabokov1
::You have reintroduced the claim that Paul Hopkins is dead, which is a hoax, and have not verified any of the other statements in question. I have created an Infobox for the page to improve the overall quality, and will continue to improve the page as a whole. I will remove false statements as I do so, and as per my previous comment in this Discussion citing WP:BURDEN I do not expect my removal of vandalism, hoax and unsourced information to be reverted without discussion here. Thank you, and please sign your comments using four tildas in the future. Elyssaen (talk) 18:43, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
