school shooting not talked about

[edit]

I stumbled across this article 9-11-1980 https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/local/1980/09/11/spingarn-high-student-fatally-shot-at-school-assembly/92b6d5ba-12ec-406d-9b40-92cbc30665c0/ I find it interesting How every other school shootings are talked on the school's page except this one, is it because it is a black school? I believe would it be something that would be worth having… things are not different except how everyone continued with their day as if nothing happened. can we go back to that and keep it out of the national news?

Orphaned references in Spingarn High School

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Spingarn High School's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "wapo":

  • From Robert Contee: "Mayor chooses veteran officer Robert J. Contee as District's next police chief". Washington Post. December 22, 2020. Retrieved January 2, 2021.
  • From Washington, D.C.: "History of the Post". 2011. Archived from the original on August 12, 2014. Retrieved May 29, 2011.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT 15:57, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
