A friendly warning about edit warring on the Hotchkiss School article
[edit]
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. LedRush (talk) 02:11, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit]Thank you for your email message. However, I do not participate in discussions about Wikipedia articles outside of this site. With regard to the Hotchkiss School quotations you referenced, I'm not arguing for the inclusion or exclusion of the quotations. Rather, I removed them from the section they were in because they were either uncited or because they didn't apply to that section, namely "Hotchkiss in print". For example, this bullet point:
Hotchkiss alumnus Julian Houston, a judge in Massachusetts, wrote the novel New Boy, which recounts the story of Rob Garrett, the first African-American student at the fictional Draper School, which strongly resembles Hotchkiss. (In a Boston Globe article about the book, the author said of his own time at Hotchkiss, "'I was miserable there.'")
is not about Hotchkiss in print. Rather, it's about a book about a school that may or may not be Hotchkiss. If you want to incorporate them into another section of criticism or something like that, that would be fine. But as it's currently stated, it doesn't belong in the section on "Hotchkiss in print".
