Talk:Wellington College, Berkshire

message: "HM Queen Elizabeth II" was wikified to British Monarch since it seems that the office of visitor is held ex-officio , instead of being held personally (as far as I can tell). 203.97.2.243 09:40, 21 Mar 2004 (UTC)

message: Does the slang section really need to cite sources? 1, as far as I can tell, there are none; all the content will have come from people like me who go to the school. 2, most of the content is reverted anyway by RC patrollers. 3, the post of visitor is ex-officio, as it was originally Queen Victoria (I believe). haz (user talk) 12:38, 9 May 2006
:Yes, it does need to cite sources, and if there are none, the section should be removed. Wikipedia:Verifiability is an offical policy, and can't be ignored. Regards, MartinRe 12:46, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary covers slang dictionaries. Section like this don't belong in this encyclopedia as they are only of local interest. They are being deleted from most id not all school articles. Adam McCormick 00:59, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: To bump this age-old discussion (blimey, those were the days!), I've just removed bucketloads of uncitable OR from the page, in order to get it into shape for GA nomination. Fingers crossed on that front, but the page does need to be kept an eye on for the inevitable "insider scoops" on the history of fagging, college vocabulary, etc. that tend to appear perennially. haz (talk) 18:36, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I work with Wellington College and am checking/updating the entry, including changing the Chairman of the Board of Governors to Sir Michael Rake. I have also taken out a 2003 entry under the Press section on the basis that it was very old and didn't fairly represent the school as it now is, as it has changed significantly since Dr Anthony Seldon arrived in 2006.

message: There's been some criticsm of public schools having charitable status.  It would be useful to have a section in the article explaining Wellington's public benefits.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shookwood (talk • contribs) 08:31, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
