The statement that gaither was only a 10th and 11th grade school when it first opened in 1984 is not accurate. It was a 9th, 10th, and 11th grade school. Please correct. Thank you. 24.131.42.47 05:17, 20 April 2006 (UTC) →Done. --sakaki 01:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism 22 Oct 2006

On Sun 22 Oct 2006 I noticed an edit (11:10, 22 October 2006) made to Vivian Gaither High School by Rhythmnation2004 which consisted solely of nonsense. I reverted it and felt justified in my skipping the first warning template and going straight to test2 (Rhythmnation2004 undoubtedly is aware of basic Wikipedia policy and behaviour as of the 19:52, 19 September 2006 revision of his user page, subsequently all but blanked by him). There is indisputably not a swimming pool at the school I've attended for a little over three years now.

Google Maps backs me up on this.
The image of said swimming pool is an obvious forgery based on its misalignment with the rest of the building.

I also reverted Rhythmnation2004's additions to the paragraph on the Stridor incident as they openly conflict with NPOV:

From 16:48, 16 September 2006's edit description, "We have to show both sides of the story here. Some sources say that GHS has mold on the air, only SDHC says there isn't. And these are the people who make us go to school during hurricanes!", whereas reputable local news sources (The Tampa Tribune, The St. Petersburg Times, et al) confirmed the results of these tests performed not only by the SDHC's Safety Department but also "independent private environmental consultants Chastain-Skillman..."

The last part of my reversion consisted of removing non-notable persons from the Famous Alumni section, obviously in the case of Jordan Sullivan and to my first-hand knowledge (I know and of them, respectively) in the cases of Keith Odle and Jonny Arcila. Rhythmnation2004 was not the author of this vandalism, however.

At present I refuse to sign as party to the RfM for this article based on my defense, as well as the prerequisite for mediation being having made an attempt in good faith to assess one's (my) reasoning for editing. Instead I have been greeted with condescending commentary on my (evidently lack of..) rights as a Wikipedian on my user talk page (17:25, 24 October 2006). Reverting again and giving last warning. sakaki 21:47, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
