text: I made a classic "weasel word" blunder. Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Avoid_weasel_words. I've consequently removed the speed bump mention. If someone actually attends CHS, please add factual information on how many speed bumps were added, how many per road, etc. to support the claim of excessiveness. Jxyama 04:34, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

message: There are several new additions to the "notable" alumni section that seem entirely worthless. It looks like somebody who graduated '07 had a field day adding people. There are several people on there now who don't have their own Wikipedia page. 12:05, 4 Mar 2013
I removed the following list of alumni, because I do not believe they are notable.
* Jason Maddux- Mayor of Kodiak Alaska
* Daniel Schmeltekop- Record Producer
* Rob Mathes- Agricultural Pioneer
If you believe they are notable by the Wikipedia guidelines, please leave a message here.  RJaguar3 | u | t 02:09, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know where the history section was copy pasted from? because when I ran it through the plagiarism checkers they only came up with this article, and sites that, as User:John from Idegon pointed out, copy pasted from this article. (talk) 23:31, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Caleb. My guess is that liquid whatever was it. So if no one objects in a week feel free to remove the maintenance tag. In the alternative, you could search the history and ask he who added it. John from Idegon (talk) 00:05, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  History copy paste 

message: Radio station run by school, little coverage. Not notable enough to have its own page. Tacyarg (talk) 23:44, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: But the radio station is independently notable. Virtually all broadcast radio and television stations in the US are notable, based on the sheer volume of accessable paperwork that must be filed to get and maintain a license. On that basis alone, I oppose. John from Idegon (talk) 23:54, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

message: This school has over 6,000 students enrolled in 2020 it is the biggest High school in all of Indiana and one of the biggest in all the US, why then is so bare bones? (Also I go there and I want to feel special that I go to a school with a chunky article.)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vallee01 (talk • contribs) 21:14, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I go there too, but WP:NPOV says we can't purposefully give it special treatment. In fact, the article currently has a bit too much bias. It's gotten worse since the only section that isn't considered the bottom of the page is extracurricular activities. It use to have a History section but that disappeared. Caleb M1 (talk) 13:39, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

text: It's bare-bones because everyone that edits here seems hung up on the fact that more kids attend high school in this school than any other school in Indiana. How is that important? It's at best trivial and the only inference that might be drawn from it is perhaps the district needs a second high school. What makes an encyclopedia article good is content about the school drawn from reliable secondary sources. The history section is gone because it wasn't sourced or neutral, and what was sourced was recent news with no indication of widespread or long-term interest. This could be a good article. That takes work. John from Idegon (talk) 17:48, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
