Talk:The Queen's School, Chester

message: The  article is of very poor encyclopaedic quality: its prose was littered with adjectives whose purpose was to boost the reputation of the school with no attempt to cite any of the claims made. It read and still reads like an advertising blurb. It needs to have numerous references added to back up its various claims, which if they are what they were claimed to be, mist surely be capable of being cited. If they cannot be cited, they should not be in the article. I have tagged some of them, but most of them could be tagged. This article needs to be improved quickly by anyone able to do so, otherwise it may suffer by being perceived mainly as advertisement copy for some recruitment scheme for pupils. Reading WP:V, WP:CITE, and WP:References would indicate just how much work this article needs to even reach an appropriate sub-level B status.  DDStretch  (talk) 23:40, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Reliable secondary sources would be preferable. Could I also suggest that you propose any further edits on this talk page rather than editing the article directly yourself. Theroadislong (talk) 19:17, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: These lists should only display the names of people deemed notable, aka have Wikipedia entries of their own. Since there is not currently a Wikipedia article about Diane Beck, we should not add her name to the list yet. I am marking this edit request as declined, but feel free to submit other edit requests in the future. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:28, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Some proposed changes

message: Names that do not have independent reliable sources showing they are notable AND alumnae should not be listed. Usually notability is confirmed by a Wikilinked biography. If there is no linked biography then references may establish notability. Status as a former attendee may either be sourced in the linked article or through citations in this article. Editors restoring challenged names have the burden of providing references/links sufficient to confirm both notability and attendance. 
Names removed and justification:
*Sophie Rosa, Prize-winning violinist (reference is her personal website)
**alumnae status not established, Queen's School is not mentioned in the referenced web cite.
**notability seems possible but is not established by a single source that is not independent.
