{{U|John from Idegon}}, why are you opposed to having [[:File:Morton HS basketball-1924.jpg]] in this article? As stated in the caption and the cited newspaper article, future Hall of Famer [[Weeb Ewbank]] is in this historic team photo! <i><b><small><span style="border:1px solid black;padding:1px;">[[User:JGHowes|<span style="color:white;background:#008000;"> JGHowes </span>]]</span></small><span style="color: blue;"> <sup>[[User talk:JGHowes|''talk'']]</sup></span></b></i> 19:42, 19 September 2020 (UTC) |

:{{u|JGHowes}}, [[WP:IMAGE]] tells us that photos are to illustrate copy, not decorate the article. It tells us also that we use illustration to help the reader understand the subject better. How does one understand Richmond HS better by knowing what some students looked like in a period not discussed in the article? Are you purporting that by knowing what one individual who attended this school looked like in the 1920s somehow increases one's knowledge of the subject? We generally do not even allow portraits in notable alumni sections. But a photo of 11 non notable individuals with one purported, but not in any way sourced, notable alumni? No way. In general, photos of people do not do much to increase a reader's knowledge of any school. Any given student is only a part of the school for a short period. They are a minuscule part of the knknowledge about the school, and seldom differentiating.

Alumni...Someone copied these names from the Richmond, Indiana page. Many have lived in Richmond but ar not RHS grads. I've deleted some obvious ones but this needs more work.
Why was the MRSA section deleted? It seemed significant to the history of the school, what with the parents' reaction to the policies and the news coverage. 98.220.223.197 (talk) 20:52, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Where are the female notable alumni? Lisa Shepherd, Monique Walls, Stacie Shepherd...and those are just a few athletes... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.228.200.154 (talk) 02:02, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
