Talk:Scripps Ranch High School

message: I have removed the sections below from the article because they lack sources and are not written from a neutral point of view.  I think they can be cleaned up some, though I do question whether or not they constitute encyclopedic material.
In addition, I corrected an inaccurate edit about the academic team.
Rallies
During the year, there are three Rallies. A rally usually consists of that season's sports doing a skit or musical performance, a cheerleading routine, a sabre or drill team presentation, class yells, t-shirt give-aways, a skit of any drama production debuting soon or recently, and a class competition. The Class Competitions usually are made up of 3 or more people from each grade trying to complete a relay as quickly as possible. However, somehow the Seniors always seem to win... Each class has its own color and t-shirts worn to show support. T-shirt designs are usually based on the color and year of the grade. The colors for each grade are as follows: Seniors - Blue Juniors - Red Sophomores - White Freshman - Green
Homecoming Rally: Held in the stadium. The classes have a Float competitions. The float designs usually coincide with the theme of homecoming. (i.e. During the Viva Las Vegas theme the Seniors were Bellagio, the Juniors were Treasure Island, the Sophomores were Caesar's Palace, and the Freshman were Circus Circus) Sports usually participating in the rally are football and field hockey.
Winter Rally: Held in the gym. Sports teams usually participating are water polo, volleyball, and basketball. Basketball's routine is usually a dunk show, and they frequently miss. Commonly known as the most boring rally.
Good Bye Rally: Held in the stadium. Made to make the Seniors feel special since they are leaving. The MC for next year's rallies introduced. Color Guard and band perform.
[edit]Powder Puff Football Game
Since its cancellation in 2004 by an overzealous administration, Powderpuff's popularity has only grown. It was reinstated last year with the realization, that, while the admin may not like it because the students might not behave like they were in church, Powderpuff football is financially what beer is to frat parties.
If "unencyclopedic" and "not notable" are synonymous, I disagree that this high school, or many others, should be excluded from Wikipedia. However, at least half of the article consists of original opinions and research, and should be removed because it lacks cites to sources such as other web sites.

thread_title: Problem sections

message: Well, since this RFC is requesting a comment specifically on the Rallies section of the article... (goes away to immerse his eyes in Rallies)... Okay then... It would seem that including these events is a matter of notability. Are there any citations at all which document the rallies? If not, their notability should be reconsidered. Will the rallies be of interest to those wanting to find out about the school? Considering these questions should give an indication as to whether or not it should be included.Jame§ugronoContributions 15:19, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Furthermore, it should be considered that if events are of interest to the public, or significant, that they would already have been published. Generally speaking, though.Jame§ugronoContributions 15:21, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  RFC 

message: Greeting editors!
Before adding or re-adding any content to this article, allow me to make some big suggestions based on some past experience I have had:
1.  Go visit Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools to get a feel for what Wikipedia is looking for in articles about schools.  There are a great many things that you can research and include, but there are many things that you may passionately feel are important, and simply don't belong in an encyclopedia article.  Remember, this is not your school's homepage ... it is an encyclopedia article about your school.
2.  Specifically check out:  What not to include.  This section outlines things that, even if you think they are important, will likely get deleted eventually, and would likely not hold up if the article gets sent to arbitration.  Among the things not to include are events of short term importance like who caught a winning touchdown, how far the team made it in the basketball playoffs (unless it was like a top 4 finish or something like that), the themes of this year's dances, the names of coaches or teachers (unless they are otherwise notable), this year's spring musical, etc, etc.  These are all either unencyclopedic, or are matters of short term interest.
Please don't take this personally ..... these things may be of enormous importance to you, but remember:  this is an encyclopedia article, not the school website.
3.  Consider having this article assessed by either the folks at WikiProject Schools.  They can be reached by the big links at the top of this Talk Page.  People associated with the project will assess the article, and will give suggestions for improvement.  This may help more specifically guide editors as to what needs to be added and what needs to be removed.
Best of luck! LonelyBeacon (talk) 07:37, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: What NOT to include in this article (and what TO include)

message: Adam Carver is not a notable alumni. Please stop attempting to list him as such. Placing him along with Adam Brody and others is a disservice to them. He's accomplished nothing to make him worthwhile listing. Thanks. IseeCrabs (talk) 04:49, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Adam Carver is NOT a notable alumni

message: Two sources did not contain the information they were supposed to support: the article http://www.lajollalight.com/2009/02/10/high-school-students-compete-in-mock-trial/ is about a 2009 event, not 2012. The charts in http://api.cde.ca.gov/Acnt2011/2011GrowthSch.aspx?allcds=37683383730884 did not mention a ranking level for the school nor the other schools which supposedly ranked below it.

thread_title:  Failed verification 

message: I reverted out a ridiculous amount of improper material.  Listing all the honors classes and clubs is way over the top for a high school article. Same with twerking incident, which shouldn't be included unless it was demonstrated the policy was more than a local phenomenon using multiple sources. There is still much left to trim out.  Per WP:BRD, don't put this stuff back in before a full discussion is held, or better yet, not at all since our guidelines are pretty clear this is trivia and/or fluff.
