thread_title: Assess for Schools

message: Please do not needlessly advertize for your club/association/group etc.  Also, this is an encyclopedia, so entries should be written as such.  This means there should be direct references to dates ("In 2007..." versus "This year..."), and content should also be wikified.  Thank you for your cooperation. -HYPOCRiTE 03:29, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: To anyone editing this page...

message: The school sends two teams every year (ie. a first team and a second team).  Would people stop editing the article to make it sound otherwise? HYPOCRiTE 23:34, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Programming Team

message: Don't we have a different number of students now? I heard we were 200 over capacity.
:200 more students sounds about right...but we have the capacity for those new students. I haven't heard any official numbers, though, so I wouldn't change anything.JoJaysius 22:57, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Fixed it - we're at about 1200 students now, and the article reflects that. HYPOCRiTE 01:49, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Students

message: There seems to be a series of reverts and adding content back, with personal attacks and assuming bad faith in the edit summaries. What is going on here? --Gray PorpoiseYour wish is my command! 22:29, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Frequent Mentioning of Names 

message: hi guys, just wondering whether you guys would consider the fact that encyclopedias (ie wikipedia) aren't supposed to have references to individual users in articles (ie rison, hypocrite and sven). Also it's wonderful that teams are mentioned, but is it relevant to include individual names (unless they're former grads who are notable)? Anyways...just a few thoughts, ignore them if you want xD. Btw hypocrite did you use to play d2 with ning and co.? cheers :)

replies: text: I've considered this, but am somewhat torn between what to do about it.  Although the actual links to user pages may not be necessary, I believe that the inclusion of names in the articles are warranted, even if the users are not notable people.  To answer your other question, yes, I did play D2 with Ning "and Co.", which raises the question...who are you? :D HYPOCRiTE 02:43, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  My only objection to the use of names is that the entire article could get rather large and unwieldy if every section includes members of teams, past and present. Perhaps we could keep only the names that are current and relevant? As for the links to user pages, I would discourage it. If people wish to check the history and discover who worked on this, let them do so; including links within the article itself seems a little too much like self promotion. Additionally, not every user page makes its "owner" obvious; perhaps some wish to keep it that way. The not-very-secret-identity-at-all-guy, JoJaysius 01:15, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  People's Names 

message: Forgot to add the section until someone did it for me (Thanks, whoever you are xD).  I moved it to the clubs sections instead of events because theatre is largely considered an extra-curricular activity that is offered by the school (even though there is a course associated with it).  Also, I used the same formatting that Rison29 used for the Film Festival page, as I think this method is the best way to go about discussing extra curricular activities.

thread_title: Theatre Production

message: hey westmount wikipedia-ers xD
since you bunch seem to be the most active of all the wikipedia people from kids/high school students in hamilton, i thought i'd share with you the Wikipedia:WikiProject Education in Canada. I thought you people might find it interesting. i was also wondering if anyone was interested in helping improve/keep up the 
Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board and Hamilton-Wentworth Catholic District School Board pages and the school pages contained within. and encourage your friends at other schools to create/edit their school's page?
i must commend the active vigilance against vandalism on the westmount page though :) ...i suppose that an "intellectual" school would have more problems with that than westdale
business aside, a few friendly jests/challenges.
get some pictures/logos up xP
you guys lost to us at reach??? :P...and no i'm not on the team...quit guessing ;)
cheers

replies: text: On Pictures/Logos -- I tried it once, but failed kind of miserably.  I may try again at a later date, but I'm graduating soon, and am slowly severing my ties from this school (though I still edit the page every so often).  HYPOCRiTE 18:36, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
