thread_title:  Alumni Removed 

message: There's been created a new section: Sports. I personally do not believe that in its current form it's encyclopedic material for multiple reasons. Close to every highschool in the School District offers these sports. It is not worth mentioning. Instead of a list, some writing about the team's achievements (girl's basketball in the cif something or the track team) which are worth mentioning.
If someone really wants to contribute, create an article such as High_School_sports.

replies: text: Good question. In a brief search I couldn't find out. Anyone? --MelanieN (talk) 02:15, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: Interesting! OK, I found a Reliable Source  for Cavemen in the 1960s, and - wait - here's another from the 1920s. Conquerist wins the gold star! Which of course begs the question, why a caveman? --MelanieN (talk) 14:27, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't have a reliable source, but I'm a member of the alumni association and we were told it was because the first football players looked like cavemen in their uniforms before their first game. Again, I don't have a source for that, just a story. Matthewq49 (talk) 22:29, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Cavers

message: User:Balboaparkfan just added information to the article saying that the school's location was found to be within Balboa Park, that a 1972 decision was made that the school's location there was illegal, and that the city signed a lease with the school district requiring the school to move by 2024. I have deleted that information, not because I doubt it, but because it was not sourced to any reference. I looked for confirmation at the San Diego History Center's records of Balboa Park History.  I found no such entry on the page for 1972,  but I did find entries on the 1974 page saying "May 10, 1974: City Council approves agreement for rebuilding of San Diego High School" and "May 21, 1974: Council approves accord on San Diego High site" "May 24, 1974: "Squatters" get Superior Court okay for high school site; lease arrangements worked out by the Board of Education and City Council approved."  So this is partial confirmation but lacks details. Can we find more detailed confirmation, so we can restore this information to the article? --MelanieN (talk) 22:26, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, Arxiloxos, that's exactly what we needed! I will work on wording and restore the information to the article. --MelanieN (talk) 18:15, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
