[Untitled]

Please maintain the list alphabetically strictly and refrain from adding Bangalore after your school name because it is obvious that these schools are from Bangalore just add area name.Bishwa 777 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 06:46, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Notability and reliable sources

The article has been expanded and then trimmed a couple of times now. Because Wikipedia is not a directory, schools need to be held to some threshold of significance to be included. Rather than source every school to its own website, or use unreliable sources like schoolswelike.com, a common and sensible requirement is that lists be limited to schools with preexisting articles. WP:WTAF explains this line of thinking. Attempting to list every school in a large city is impractical for several reasons. Primary schools and preschools (like the recently deleted Hello Kids) are generally not notable enough to mention, and small schools like this come and go far to often for such lists to be practical to maintain.

Meaning of "Historical"

The first section is entitled "Historical schools in Bangalore and their year of establishment" - there is no definition of "historical", and to prevent more recent schools being added, I would suggest a cut-off date of independence/partition i.e. 15 August 1947 - any comments? - Arjayay (talk) 13:25, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

After over a year, I'll take that as agreed nem con - Arjayay (talk) 10:36, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
