Fair use rationale for Image:Blenheim.gif[edit]

Image:Blenheim.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Exclusion controversy[edit]

Whether or not this happened is not the issue. Any content must be reliably, independently sourced. See WP:CITE and WP:RS. Unless it can be so sourced it must stay out. TerriersFan (talk) 18:15, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

December 2008 controversy[edit]

This section claims it became a national controversy but does not have references to back it up. If it really was a national controversy, there will be news citations available from throughout the country.

If it was not a national controversy, it is very likely non-encyclopedic and should be removed.

Reasons why it might be encyclopedic and worth keeping:

In any case, it's much too big. If it is encyclopedic, it could probably be trimmed to 3-4 sentences. Also, if citations from reliable sources are not provided soon, the entire section should be deleted and not restored until the citations are availbable. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 18:56, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the section. The content is controversial, and possibly damaging to the organisation, and must be fully sourced. TerriersFan (talk) 01:58, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I understand why it has to be sourced, however, because it was kept quiet, it was not reported anywhere. As a fellow student at the school, I know that this event is true and it does back up the reasons given by davidwr. I suggest the article should be put back, however, with something that says it needs to be sourced or something samilar. If I do indeed find a source, I shall put it in. But for the time being, the paragraph should be put back in. Bloons (talk) 09:40, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • It was in fact a national controversy
  • No press or no official reports = not a notable controversy. I should've said "notable national controversy" instead of "national controversy"
  • It led to changes in national or local laws
  • No evidence of such changes, or no evidence changes were result of this event
  • It led to non-trivial changes in school policy
  • No evidence of such changes, or no evidence changes were result of this event
  • It represented a significant change in school policy or enforcement of school policy
  • No evidence of such changes, or no evidence changes were result of this event
  • As a result of the controversy, something else notable happened. In this case, a simple one-liner that says "In December 2008, 3 students were expelled. As a result insert notable item here happened".
  • No evidence of an event, or no evidence such an event was a result of this event
Hush-hush events are by definition not encyclopedic. Wait for someone else to publicize this first. Wikipedia is a lagging indicator of notability. Also, consider the reasons this was hushed up - to protect the people from harm that publicity would cause. See Wikipedia:Avoiding harm. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 15:56, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. Also we cannot have potentially damaging content hanging about awaiting possible, but unlikely sourcing. TerriersFan (talk) 18:24, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Corona virus information[edit]

Information from the school about this very important subject is absent from its web site and social media accounts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.154.4.122 (talk) 23:06, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
