message: Need to split the history section Sherwood College nainital into separate page.
I have spited the article and would appreciate if it is kept that way.
The history article will suffice alone as an article with reference.
The history is very detailed and would be making further changes into it when I get time.

replies: text: The separated history article had absolutely no reliable, secondary sources and is unlikely to have enough to support a separate article. The better solution is to work on bring this one up to WP standards by eliminating the fluff, providing sources and reducing it to only the most notable highlights. 69.181.249.92 (talk) 07:21, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I took a stab at it. It still needs some polish and a lot of reliable secondary sources, but it's much better than it was. I can't believe the amount of puffery that existed! 69.181.249.92 (talk) 18:50, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  User with IP 69.181.249.92, I understand you have not studied at the school, otherwise you would have not cut down the article, cause everything mentioned is fact not just puffery. As per, notable alumni list is concerned pls. visit the old student website and eminent alumni section all the names mentioned on wiki page have detailed description about each person. The link is put for reference. I will be reverting the alumni list back. Hope you will not fiddle with it. Thank you. Ron951 (talk) 09:22, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Please read the reliable sources guidelines to understand why I trimmed the list. These people need to be notable enough for their own WP article, notable enough to have coverage in multiple secondary sources and not just some alumni site. 69.181.249.92 (talk) 15:56, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think in trying to help wikipedia by editing articles you seem to over do your work, which now has started to bother people. Reliable source: A school will not want to tarnish its image and put names of persons as alumni on its website, if they were not associated with the school. Why don't you visit the website and click on eminent sherwoodian section and read for yourself in detail about each individual mentioned. Also, you have linked wrong names in wikipedia, you have linked Prof Gyandera Pandey to a cricketer, A.N. Kidwai (Ahmed Nazir Kidwai) to A.R. Kidwai (Akhlaqur Rahman Kidwai) and Avtar Singh (army personnel) to Awtar Singh (politician) ; as said over doing your work. Wikipedia itself is a secondary, so everything on itself becomes secondary source. If you need primary you can call the school or will give you email id of each individuals and you can verify for yourself. Further, you should visit this link, that features alumni of another school and see for yourself whether all names mentioned are linked with reference or general reference is given at the end. I hope you would not fiddle again on Notable alumni section and would not waste your and my time. Thank you Ron951 (talk) 09:17, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Split history section

message: The person listed as principal in the infobox and the person said to be the current principal in the "Principal" section are not the same. This may be the result of uncorrected vandalism, or whoever changed one may simply have forgotten to change the other. Can someone knowledgeable fix? ubiquity (talk) 17:44, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
