References

[edit]

What I mean by references is that everything in Wikipedia must be attributable to a reliable scorce just like the comment above the edit summary states. This means that any claims which could be disputed (Date of founding, notable alumni, demographics statistics, etc...) should be directly referenced using <ref>[link]</ref> tags. The problem is that Wikipedia is very specific on dissallowing Original Research so personal experience is not supposed to be used as a source. Adam McCormick 14:11, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The King's School

[edit]

Hello. You recently nominated The King's School, Sydney for deletion because you believe the article is named incorrectly. Articles for deletion is only for articles which need to be deleted. For renaming an article see Wikipedia:Requested moves. I'll be closing the nomination for deletion for this reason. I'll also be deleting the The King's School, Parramatta article which is a copy and paste copy of the aforementioned article. Copy and paste moves are bad for copyright reasons. Thanks. -- zzuuzz (talk) 10:03, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. I thought I'd explained about copy and paste moves, but let me just stress that copy and paste moves are never acceptable - even if they result in moving the article to the correct title the edit history will be incorrect. It currently looks as if you wrote the whole The King's School, Parramatta article, and the real authors are nowhere to be seen, which is bad for copyright reasons. So I'll revert these edits. The requested moves process will take a little time. Please allow discussion to happen. Thanks. -- zzuuzz (talk) 21:03, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

[edit]

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 21:14, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request to move article The King's School, Sydney incomplete

[edit]

You recently filed a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves to move the page The King's School, Sydney to a different title - however your proposal is either incomplete or has been contested as being controversial. As a result, it has been moved to the incomplete and contested proposals section. Requests that remain incomplete after five days will be removed.

Please make sure you have completed all three of the following:

  1. Added {{move|NewName}} at the top of the talk page of the page you want moved, replacing "NewName" with the new name for the article. This creates the required template for you there.
  2. Added {{subst:RMtalk|NewName|reason for move}} to the bottom of the talk page of the page you want to be moved, to automatically create a discussion section there.
  3. Added {{subst:RMlink|PageName|NewName|reason for move}} to the top of today's section here.

If you need any further guidance, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Requested moves or contact me on my talk page. - JPG-GR (talk) 23:36, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
