message: Is St._Paul's_School_(New_Hampshire)#"Senior_Salute"_rape_allegations_and_trial this material encyclopedic? What about Parsippany_Hills_High_School#Incident? There are probably thousands of such sections describing such sexual assault incidents. Alansohn (talk) 01:35, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: *Obviously the people commenting here cannot meaningfully discuss a project-wide guideline about when to include controversy sections. You might try WP:VPP if there is a proposal, or WP:WPSCHOOLS. Very few guidelines/policies spell out an algorithm to determine whether text should be included in an article because it all depends. Johnuniq (talk) 02:57, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: *I know of no policy that is based on an algorithm, but is what you suggest is that there is no standard and that you prefer to fight this issue one article at a time? You know of no standard, but this article violated it which is why you felt obligated to remove content here, but only here? What did you mean by the edit summary "WP:UNDUE unless there is a secondary source that has written about the effect on the school; write an article on the person or incident, but it's coatracking here", which appears to be a standard that almost no article could meet? Alansohn (talk) 03:09, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: *My edit summaries do not have to meet the impossible standard of applying to all articles at all times. It is standard procedure for coatracked material to be removed from articles, and anyone wanting the material has to demonstrate its relevance (WP:DUE) to the topic of the article. There is no guideline that every bad thing that ever happened at a school, or every bad thing done by school staff, should be reported in an article about the school.

thread_title: What is the standard for inclusion of such incidents?

message: The attendance and demographics information is sourced to the latest National Center for Education Statistics report. This is the standard reference for such information for US high schools. The unsourced claim  is for a 40 % increase in overall school attendance (and a 370 % increase in the number of Black students)..If such a significant change has occurred since the current NCES report (2017-2018) then it should be reported, but it must be reliably sourced.
