Don Vicente Rama Memorial National High School

Self-nomination I have spent a lot of time in this article in order to have our school at least an article in Wikipedia. I asked for pictures and infos about our school. I am very glad that Wikipedia didn't question the intergity of my article. The article speaks a lot about the Don Vicente Rama Memorial National High School. It not too popular on search engines because it's not a private school (it's only a public school) that's why I don't have a lot of sources. But the article is very informative because it is mainly based on the School Improvement Plan of our Principal. I would be very happy if this article would be nominated and hopefully be a featured article. Kevin Ray 08:14, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Object. No sources other than the schools own improvement plan, extremely poor image syntax, too many lists, over-bolding, etc. I don't think it's even ready for peer review... / Peter ^Isotalo 09:00, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Object. Per Peter. This is faaaaaaar away from FA status. It needs rewriting and then peer-review.--Yannismarou 09:04, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Kevin, Hopkins School is a recently-promoted FA, which may give you some guidelines. Notice the clean layout and Table of Contents, well-developed lead, thorough inline citations, and comprehensive coverage of all areas of the school. Once you get closer to that, peer review can help get the article tuned up for FAC. Sandy 01:16, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Here's another sample for you Kevin: Plano Senior High School. Maybe you can find enough sources from your state newspapers. Keep writing! Sandy 22:33, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Kevin, I am impressed with how your article about your school sticks to factual description and doesn't cheerlead. Not many school articles can say that. I believe it would be difficult for this to become a featured article, partially because Wikipedia's standards for Verifiability make it hard to supply independent references for many high schools. But don't let that stop you from trying to improve the articles you work on here! –Outriggr § 07:30, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Object. This article is a mess. The sections really need tidying up, there's large areas of whitespace, and I count one source... A definite no. --Alex (Talk) 13:05, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Object per above, try intergrating some of the lists into paragraphs. VulcanStar6
Object, I'm a little worried about the article as a whole because it isn't sourced much at all. This all can't be in the improvement plan. It also shows why when subjects get too specific it's nearly impossible to create an article about them with widely accessible and credible sources. gren グレン 12:24, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
