Talk:Archbishop Mitty High School

message: Main priority is gathering references to defend claims. Alumni list is useful, but I would suspect not complete.. Photo gallery would be a nice addition Victuallers 19:35, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Schools assessment

message: This article is not an advertisement for Archbishop Mitty.
The criticisms are levied amongst Archbishop Mitty students as well as persons from other schools in the Diocese and local public schools. They shouldn't be deleted simply because they show the school in an unfavorable light; there are plenty of other parts of the article that show AMHS' "good side," and the article as it stands with a criticism section is still objective. In light of this agreement, don't delete the anonymous alumni's opinion. Thanks!
:Wikipedia has policies and guidelines, one of the most important of which is verifiability. Even if something is true, if it has not been made available by reliable, verfiabile sources, including it in the article becomes a violation of our no original research policy. To include the criticisms of students, people from the diocese, and local public schools, they need to be documented by someone reliable. I'd accecpt the San Jose Mercury News, the Valley Catholic, the minutes from a meeting of a local school board, possibly the personal website of a student, or some other documentation.

message: Per the school article guidelines, "School articles should also specifically not include:...Lists of colleges and universities that have accepted students from the school".   Please do not put that info back. Gtwfan52 (talk) 20:13, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

text: Subject is notable (Robert King (writer)), but there is nothing in his article supporting a tie to the school.  Reference that and I would support this addition. John from Idegon (talk) 22:44, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Protected edit request on 3 September 2014 

message: Request removal of entire mission statement section as out of guideline (Do I need to form a consensus for this?) and removal of every achievement in the athletics section with the exception of the claim that the women's program was ranked first in the nation by Sports Illustrated.  That claim is referenced to SI.  all the rest are referenced to a baseball schedule on the school's website, and 99% are for achievements less than state championships, which would be out of guideline anyway.

replies: text: I have removed the mission statement as that was obviously inappropriate for a neutral article. But I would like to see some comments from others about removing the achievements. Regards — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:22, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

message: The total number of students enrolled is not up to date since the enrollment size for 2014 is given. The article gives a pretty detailed description of the campus but doesn't mention the John A. and Susan Sobrato Science and Student Life Center. In addition to needing information on men's sports, a section about other notable school clubs and programs such as their speech and debate team and performing arts department. The list of notable alumni should also be revised. 
References should be added for the sentences about Kerri Walsh donating a beach volleyball court as well as the date the Schott Family Music  Center was opened. The section about the student body gives data for the 2014-2015 school year. Along with being outdated, it doesn't have a citation. The links in the reference section that I clicked on all worked. However, reference number 25 is a link to the school's website which is not a good source because it is not independent of the school and is an official website.

replies: text: The best reference for enrollment data is NCES, which is always two to three years behind.  This is an encyclopedia, not an almanac or newspaper.  The most up to date info is not the highest priority, the best source is. For the rest of the issues you have pointed out, this article is not edit protected, so unless there is a reason you shouldn't or cannot, just be BOLD and fix it.

text: Hello! Thanks for the response!  I will attempt to be bold and fix the errors whenever I can find some spare time! Phams99 (talk) 04:26, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
