Talk:Bend Senior High School

message: The original Bend High school was at the current district office, this is common information, ask any alumni or administrator of the school, I cannot cite an internet source for this however. I updated your page and included the current school's address.216.228.178.8 02:51, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Original location

message: The old address on Bond can stay. I'll put that there. The part about the senior pranks should stay, however. It's a tradition and all Bend High alumni (including myself) can say that all of them listed is not fake.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by BeanoJosh (talk • contribs) 05:19, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Fine

message: To quote WP:CITE: "Any material that is challenged and for which no source is provided may be removed by any editor." (emphasis mine) Even if "it's true" or "I was there" or whatever, it still needs third party sources. Did these pranks get written up in the Bend Bulletin?
So here's your senior pranks section. It should be noted that even if references to reliable sources can be found, a senior pranks section, though amusing, is not encyclopedic and is likely to be removed again. Surely people from this school have done something more meaningful.
Now, reversion sucks because I also made several changes to the article such as make the headings lowercase, per the manual of style, remove some of the tags, which was to your benefit, and remove the silly part about where people eat lunch.
Learn how to edit disputed articles. Read the edit summaries, note any other changes the edit you're reverting has made, and discuss on the talk page. If you check the edit history, you'll know the material isn't lost, but can be retrieved at any time. Rather than simply reverting, incorporate the changes you want into the current version of your article. Simple reversion (sometimes known as edit warring) is frowned on and doesn't make you look good if the content dispute is investigated by admins.
Surely your time would be better spent fleshing out the athletics section, what awards the school has won, etc. See WikiProject Schools for more ideas. We entirely filled our vice-principal's yard with pink flamingoes and other crap on grad night three years in a row, and that makes for fond memories, but I don't plan to put it in my high school's article.

thread_title:  Why reversion sucks 

message: OK they are pranks ... notable - don't think so. Interesting... no. This isnt a school magazine. Oh and can I suggest you relook at your lists. The fact that your school plays footaball is nor remarkable. If it didn't or played tiddlywinks at world level then it would be. Good efforts here, but some silliness Victuallers 11:30, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Notability of pranks

message: If you guys don't want it there, that's fine. It can be removed if no sources can be found. I've tried looking, since the 10 gallon barrel of ink was done to the new school expansion. I thought that would be published somewhere. I'm going to restore Katr's other edits, since she did mention that she changed some things. The pranks will stay here, or be removed. It's your call. no sources can be found. Someone had some interesting, and mean things to say about Katr67 as seen in the history of this page. I'm sure that was a Bend High student. (to whoever did that) While I respect everyone's opinion, lets not insult others. It makes me look like the bad guy.

replies: text: My edits were already restored. Please check the diffs and the page history. We seem to be existing in some weird time lag/parallel universes. No need to rehash the incivility or point fingers. High school students in general seem to take pleasure in immature editing. This is why I usually leave high school articles alone. I tried, I'm done, whatever, have fun kids. Katr67 21:30, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
