Talk:ʻIolani School

message: In the sidebar, it says that the school mascot is "I'o". The correct spelling, if you are including the 'okina, is 'Io. I had no idea how to edit that particular section.
It might be worth finding out if it's even true that the mascot is an 'io. It wasn't when I was there, but that was in antedeluvian times and it might have changed. I'd check the school website, but it seems to be not responding just now.
:Figured out that "edit this page" means "edit this page". Also remembered to sign this time.--Salor 01:59, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

message: Please sign your posts using four tildes, thank you.  I'm not too sure if the mascot is an 'io (hawk), what about the 'Go Raiders'?  Should that be included in the article?  I recieve the 'Iolani bulletin as well, I think that that can be used as a reliable source.  Midorihana(talk)(contribs) 07:45, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think 'Iolani has a mascot. I know that the school symbol is the 'Io, hence the name 'Iolani. I think "Go Raiders" should be included in the article. It's like the de facto motto of the school. "On Team-Humble in Victory, Gracious in Defeat" would be the de jure motto. The 'Iolani Bulletin would be a pretty good source. --Benedict of Constantinople (talk) 07:28, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, no, considering the fact that third party sources are needed. Midorihana~いいですね? はい! 08:02, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: According to WP:SELFPUB (section of WP:Verifiability), the Bulletin would be acceptable for the items that Benedict of Constantinople suggests. We would need third-party sources to verify things like school rankings or competition wins. Flatscan (talk) 16:58, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Why is Sun Yat-sen, aka "Sunny", also listed as an alum of Punahou?
:He shouldn't. Midorihana(talk)(contribs) 07:45, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The Sun Yat-sen and Punahou School articles both describe him as having attended Oahu College (Punahou), not as an alumnus. Flatscan 01:30, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, I see. I think I've heard that from someone before. Midorihana(talk)(contribs) 04:42, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sun Yat-sen graduated from Iolani, his alma mater. After graduating, he attended Punahou for a period (one semester, I think) of time. This, of course, is all in the article. It'd be a lie to say that Sun was an alumnus of Punahou. --Benedict of Constantinople (talk) 07:23, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Would it make sense to have a new section about the different buildings, equipment, etc. ?  I know that the Weinberg building has only existed for a couple of years, but Castle and I-building are much older.  Midorihana(talk)(contribs) 04:44, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I made a Campus section about the buildings. Midorihana(talk)(contribs) 01:38, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

message: There needs to be a clean up of the school's history and a closer look by someone else who knows more about the subject than I do. Things are left out of the story and it is hard to understand dates. Currently just two of the sources I have looked out disagree on many points. The school's history timeline does not agree with the what is written in a history article about Sun Yat-sen with the article having exact dates while the school seems to be guessing at best (yet claiming they used the school's archival data to compile the time).--KAVEBEAR (talk) 02:11, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
