Notable alumni
[edit]Hi, please before reverting edits review the guidelines put in place by WP:WPSCH/AG. Whether or not an alumnus is notable to people from the school itself is moot. That's not the aim of wikipedia. As mentioned on the Schools project page, if alumni do not have their own wikipedia page, they must meet two criteria to be placed into the notable alumni section. -- Lucas20 (talk) 23:36, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
- Given that many of these alumni are 'living' you cannot simply accept adding an unreferenced claim of notability that leaves the reader with no proof that this person is an alumnus/a. "All alumni information must be referenced" Wikipedia is not meant for 'local' interest, it is meant to be encyclopedic, so if the notability does not extend beyond those with an interest of the school and moreover are not references they will be removed. That said, I will add citation requests to all of these alumni. After an appropriate amount of time, they will be removed if not fixed. Perhaps you can do this. -- Lucas20 (talk) 12:56, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
