Talk:Boulder High School

message: Nice try, Boulder :) but you don't get to boast for yourself on Wikipedia. Took out mention of BHS being better than Fairview "in every way." RECON (talk) 00:13, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Boulder v. Fairview 

message: I have been working on the BHS entry for a bit and the biggest problem is the CWA section. I have some suggested edits that could help. I have also added a few refs and tags to help with NPOV.
(some in attendance were as young as 14)
This addition seems to have a biased tone. Also it is already assumed because Boulder High's info box mentions grades 9-12. I suggest removal for better NPOV.
The Becker quote is in the same form that has been accused as being out of context. A summary (and full text) of Becker's statements are already provided which leads me to believe that this quote is unneeded and possibly biased (context).
In particular Becker allegedly informed the students where to easily find marijuana and appeared to make fun of using a condom[citation needed]. Becker allegedly went on to encourage students to experiment with both hetero and homosexual sex and encouraged students to masturbate[citation needed].
Some NPOV cleanup needed (too hard for me). Possibly by reducing use of opinionated words like "encourage".
 
Mansur Gidfar and Patrick Garrett also appeared on the program Colorado 2031, hosted by local news anchor Ron Zopollo, to discuss the issue with Caplis and Silverman.
I tried to find a ref for this on the 2031 site, but the summaries are too vague. 24.8.147.178 (talk) 02:08, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

message: In this edit,  claims that state championships should be removed and that "National high school polls are op/ed, not fact". The material in question that has been removed improperly is as follows: 
1) "Boulder High earned their second Boys Soccer 5A State Championship in 2016 with a win over Broomfield High School and a perfect 20-0 season." This is supported by this source
2) "The 2016 Panthers finished the season ranked second in the nation by USA Today on its Super 25 Expert Rankings.", whcih was backed by this source from USA Today.
I'm not sure that John from Idegon understands policy here, but I invite any comment that would demonstrate consensus that a state champions or a ranking in a national poll cannot be included in any article, even with a reliable and verifiable source. Alansohn (talk) 18:33, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: The state championship can and should be included in the article.  But I stand on the national polls being nothing but hoo haa.  Unlike college, there is no basis for comparing high school teams from different regions to each other. They are nothing but the poll compiler's opinion and as such are op/ed, not journalistic reporting. At work now will expand later. John from Idegon (talk) 20:28, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I couldn't agree more that "The state championship can and should be included in the article.", but you removed it twice. That double removal of what you acknowledge to be encyclopedic undermines the entire claim, but I'm willing to discuss further.I wouldn't be interested in your rankings of high school boys soccer teams, or of mine, but the USA Today rankings are from a panel of experts at a reliable and verifiable source, supporting a strong claim of accomplishment at the national level. I'd reconsider if you can point to Wikipedia's "no hoo haa" policy, but the source stands on its own. Alansohn (talk) 21:10, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

message: The Alumni section seems pretty tight, I spot checked a few entries, but it was tagged by  on 22 June 2022 as needing attention. What needs to be done here? ~Kvng (talk) 14:02, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: It needs to be provided that they are both notable and alumni. The fact that all alumni have Wikipedia articles is enough to prove notability. However, there also must be a reliable source provided for each alumni showing they are from that school, of which their Wikipedia article is not enough to show this.

replies: text: Did you identify specific entries where you could not verify they are alumni. I did find evidence in the ones I spot checked either as a source in this article or in the linked article. ~Kvng (talk) 16:03, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
