Talk:The Prebendal School

message: I've restored the  tag that  removed without comment. In my opinion the tag is fully justified: the article currently reads like a promotional brochure for the school. 
Examples: 
* (from the lead) 'a sense of history, tradition and continuity pervades the modern school' 
* 'Children receive a thoroughly good grounding in all subjects'
* 'if a child is musical then the school has much to offer'
* 'The happiness of each child while they are at the Prebendal is of paramount importance'
* (In the 'Pre-prep' section) 'We aim to provide a stimulating and nurturing environment in which children can feel secure and confident.'  
I could go on. Please: 
* do not remove the   tag again without discussion
* tone down the POV considerably
: the tag has been removed again so I propose   (PS I forgot to sign previous comment) AndrewWTaylor (talk) 17:16, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: How about I just protect the page against anonymous users? I agree it reads like an advert in places but it is also a large article which would probably deserve more work than deletion. I will remove the db tag just to give you time to respond here to my message. SGGH speak! 17:23, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks - I'm not against the article in principle, and it clearly has potential. Anti-anon protection sounds good to me: I suggest we re-add the advert tag though. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 17:27, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I already did, unless it has gone again. If it has I will be having words with whoever removes it SGGH speak! 17:31, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  A lot of the text is verbatim from {http://www.prebendalschool.org.uk/], so there may be copyvio issues too. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 17:30, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

text: If we remove that part it should be good to go, the lead (bar 1 or 2 advert lines) seems at a glance to be good to go. SGGH speak! 17:31, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Article is Semi-Protected, I'm off to have words with this IP. SGGH speak! 17:34, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh incidentally, my watchlist is pretty blocked up, if problems continue you can let me know on my talk page. Happy editing SGGH speak! 00:26, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Advert 

message: i don't know what POV stands for but i think i will help edit this article by toning down the POV. 
there is currently no advert tag and i don't know who removed it - i'll put one up for the time being.
