Trafalgar High School (Cape Town)

[edit]

Created by Victuallers (talk). Self nominated at 15:13, 13 August 2014 (UTC).

  • (alt1) ... that the physics teacher at Trafalgar High School in Cape Town was sentenced to 12 years on Robben Island?
    I have done some copy editing and added references. The article is new enough, long enough and reasonably sourced. The hook is interesting, sourced and cited inline. I am proposing an alternative hook to clarify some issues. HelenOnline 12:24, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
    ALT2 ... that Trafalgar High School established for non-whites in Cape Town defiantly refused to move after its part of the city was declared "whites only"?
No problem. Thanks so much for your assistance. The edit conflicts are annoying but the collaboration is a great pleasure. I got working on this article after seeing the information about Sinenjongo High School at Wikimania in London last week and thought that the nearby schools might also like? encouragement. I liked your hook so much that I have pasted over my original wording with your words. I left the alt in case others might like a different approach. Thanks again Victuallers (talk) 12:55, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
