message: I think that the Air-Photo is fairly old - the Millikan building isn't included. Is there anything better we can use?

message: You really think the House System shouldn't be mentioned Harro5? As a current student, I know that it is greatly more important then many schools (at least from whom I know in Victoria) have. It is for this reason particularly notable - and it still is NPOV. It is also a major part of the history of the school, with reference to the older days of bording and uni-sexism. Just my 2 centrs...

message: The list of Notable Alumni seems to be getting fairly long. It is arguable how a lawyer could be notable alumini. Do we need to start culling of just let it grow or put a limit on it? Lochok 22:29, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Hear the voice 

message: I have removed certain parts that I felt didn’t add to the overall article. Namely the caddie program & hear the voice sections. They were very poorly written and contained advertising (hear the voice email/website address). If anyone feels these should be re-added, feel free to rewrite them in a way that is comprehendible and post it here for review.

thread_title:  Removed Sections 

message: I have slightly changed the alumni section, removing one of the 'titles' attached to Steve Vizard's name. The title in question (inside trader) is inappropriate as all the other titles that everyother alumni has - are jobs/careers, correct me if I'm wrong, but inside trader isn't typically a career.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.160.112.200 (talk) 07:57, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Formerly, there used to be a VCE score table of all the recorded years. This is the same on most other Victoria school’s Wikipedia pages. Therefore, this table should be restored under the Curriculum section. Carey3146 (talk) 05:19, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

text: Firstly, this is not a proposal that requires voting, but a discussion to reach consensus. Secondly, while discussion is under way, it is not great etiquette to simply restore the content to your preferred version. I personally do not believe the content should be included, but if other editors agree it should be, I'm happy to be persuaded (or agree to disagree). Melcous (talk) 05:44, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Just more unnecessary content. And it's NOT true to say it's the same on most other Victoria school’s Wikipedia pages. School's need to do their marketing through other channels. HiLo48 (talk) 06:34, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It is not marketing it is simple information that many people are interested in seeing. Many of these private schools in this area of Melbourne have these tables included because it is important to those schools and to the people who look at these Wikipedia pages.

replies: text: Oh dear. First you claimed they were "on most other Victoria school’s Wikipedia pages". Now it's "Many of these private schools in this area of Melbourne". If you think about why, it's marketing!! HiLo48 (talk) 09:16, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: So why do we include was schools offer their students and their sporting output with medals and awards but don’t seem to be okay with having information on their academic output on the Carey Wikipedia page. Seems like double standards are here. It is good to have here and interesting for people. It if fact and informative, not another opportunity to show off. They rarely do that on their own website regarding VCE results. Carey3146 (talk) 09:19, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

text: It is excessive to list these results for every year. Meters (talk) 07:28, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It is important to find a comparison between each year with these results over the years for a ten-year period. Carey3146 (talk) 20:06, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

text: Removed again until we reach consensus. Meters (talk) 07:31, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  It is worth noting WP:WPSCH/AG#WNTI which lists specific things not to include in school articles. On the list is . Melcous (talk) 11:04, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The tables and stats there, are made by third party groups on Carey, not by Carey. Carey3146 (talk) 20:04, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yes, the raw data is made by others, but I would interpret this to mean an independent source is specifically talking about Carey and noting something about its academic results and why they are significant. Melcous (talk) 22:41, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: That is exactly what that table shows. It shows the highest year of the school finish their studies and the stats are shown in that ordered manner every year. Carey3146 (talk) 05:05, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
