Assessment

Based on the 2012 WikiProject Schools quality guidelines, the following assessment is performed.

The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations where necessary. It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. The use of either ref tags or citation templates such as "cite web" is not required.
- ASSESSMENT : Partial / No, many references are last updated in 2005-06 and result in failed/empty pages that may not result in "dead link" 404 errors without manual checking. Djharrity (talk) 04:51, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing.
The article has a defined structure. Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind.
- ASSESSMENT: The article structure is not consistent with Wikipedia standards and contains numerous sections with simply listing of championships and little to no prose. Djharrity (talk) 04:51, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The article is reasonably well-written. The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it certainly need not be "brilliant". The Manual of Style need not be followed rigorously.
- ASSESSMENT: the article is reasonably complete with no major grammatical errors. However, caution in providing sections related to collegiate signing
The article contains supporting materials where appropriate. Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams and an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content.
- ASSESSMENT: Generally good, no obvious issues; although additional images would provide improvement. Djharrity (talk) 04:51, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The article presents its content in an appropriately understandable way. It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. Although Wikipedia is more than just a general encyclopedia, the article should not assume unnecessary technical background and technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.
- ASSESSMENT: Article is written with an assumption of California schools background and contains sections that may be considered trivial as compared to comparable articles of high schools in the United States. Djharrity (talk) 04:51, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good Article?

This article is probably close to qualifying as a Good article. That link will tell you the qualifications and how to nominate an article. The most important thing that I see that needs to be added is some images. Perhaps a photo of the front of the school, as well as images of the school's logo and/or mascot. You might ask WikiProject Schools for some assistance. ^Blank ^Verse 06:50, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cruel and unnessicary

I this description "Sabrina Sloan, Former American Idol Contestant who lost everything and cried like a baby when she did." really needed. I am a currently a high school student at Mission Viejo, and I don't really fell this should be there. I will delete, but if I am wrong about it, and is fine; put it back up.

What a Crock!!!

Where are the sources about the CIF Championship Football swaping Incident? Clicking on the link gives you a paragraph, with no details, and then you have to pay for the rest, that is not a source, If this site is free its, sources should also be free. However if you were to contact the Register, as well as the Coaches of Hart High school, and Mission Viejo High School, I am sure you will be amazed to find out that Hart High School coach knew of the ball switch, long before the game, and never rasied a complaint, this is also why he never filed a pettion to have Mission stripped of the Title. Both schools hated using the Spalding ball, as it is very inferior ball, compaired to the Wilson ball. Had the ball not been switched, the outcome of the game, may of changed only because the play would have been much sloppier. With the ball switch we saw one of the best games ever in CIF History a 10-9 grudgematch Mission Victory. Both teams played supurb.

Second the soruce article about 75% of Missions starters living outside of Mission's Attendence area, does not give any facts about where players lived what so ever. Unless you want to pay for the article, and even than, there may not be anything. However California Department of Education states a student may attend any high school they wish. However ther will be no interdistirct transportation. So it is the students reponsibility, to get him, or her self to school on time. I also happen to know several of Mission's starters all of which live on my street, Maximus, in Mission Viejo, CA, well inside of missions attendence area.

Thye person who sourced this article should be made to back it up, by providing the entire article.

So it's a crock if you dont agree?

Just because you have to pay to read the article does not make it untrue. The Orange County Register is out to make a profit and will not allow a non-subscriber to search it's database. The problem is I knew you Diablo fanatics would cry if I didn't provide a certified source for Coach Bob Johnson caught cheating. So once again you guys try to cheat and say yank the story...WRONG! The source I used is a verfied media source...The CIF website confirms that your program cheated and was punished (Very Lightly Might I Add)and it will stay up.

Schools Controlling their Wikipedia Pages

I dont think that schools have a jurisdiction over what students post on their own time, and at their own homes. Some teachers at mission think that they can threaten students with saturday schools or detentions for changing facts on the wiki article. (Or adding facts about the school that they dont like.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.100.95.92 (talk) 18:12, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Article Change

Hello User:Gtwfan52. You recently rolled back my edits to the Mission article. First of all, I am new to editing on Wikipedia; I just joined two days ago and wanted to test out my editing skills on this article as I go to this school. I didn't know there were specific rules on editing school articles so first forgive me for that. Secondly, the reason I replaced the entire article instead of just the part that I was editing is because while looking at the changes that the bot made (I didn't know it was a bot at the time and we had an editing conflict), it seemed as if the bot had deleted most of the pages content as most of the article was now blank; I now know that merely dates were being changed and not the entire article. That's why I had replaced the entire article with my edit as I thought the bot had deleted it all. Once again, I apologize for my lack of understanding on the way Wikipedia works and I hope I can gain more knowledge in the future. And, as you said, I will collaborate with this page for any changes that I might want to make in the future.

My apologies, - Aidan (Throughthemines) (talk) 05:14, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely no apology needed. I have left you a detailed message on your talk page. Thanks for coming here. Gtwfan52 (talk) 05:32, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
