St. Rita Colors
Per http://www.stritahs.com/Songlyrics.htm the lyrics of the St. Rita fight song begin with: Come, let us cheer for old St. Rita With her colors Red and Blue. The colors are clearly red and blue and not red and white. I know the varsity football uniform is red and white, but the freshman football uniform is dark blue and white. The baseball team is dark blue and white with red trim. The hockey team is light blue and red. All the uniforms are different and change over time. The fight song has always said red and blue.70.90.125.177 15:40, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Ahhhh...excellent point...I forgot about the FS, I can change based on that. Thanks!
Midway
St. Rita is close to the Midway Airport. Low planes fly over it every day, and most are Southwest Airlines planes. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.16.151.77 (talk) 15:39, 30 March 2007 (UTC).
Vandalism?
My edits are not vandalism, they are an attempt to make the article more encyclopedic. You fail to address my edits on the merits Speciate 21:38, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
If you would like to improve the page, that is fine. Your silly vendetta against "ChicagoIand" (when it is a valid wikilink) is not helpful.
I view the elimination of the limiting, unecyclopedic term ChicagIand to be important. Your anonymous ad hominim attack on my edits as "silly," and your ad nauseum reversions of my edits as "vandalism" will not stand. Just because you wrote the page does not give you ownership rights over it. I will continue to edit the page as I see fit. Speciate 22:58, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
I didn't write the page, why do you keep bringing up this nonsense. No ad hominem attacks were made. I didn't call YOU anything.
How is Chicagoland unencyclopedic? It is a valid wikilink. ?!?!?!?!?!
Chicagoland is unecyclopedia because it limits one to the 9 or 11 or whatever counties the allegdly make it up. As there are graduates who are leaders who live and work outside of those counties, I have improved the page to reflect their geographic dispersal. Here is another valid wikilink; Midwestern United States. Now, before you click on it, can you tell me exactly which states are in the Midwest? Do you think that everyone agrees on which states? Is Rockford, Illinois in ChicagoIand? Speciate 00:14, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Do you think that everyone agrees with your silly vendetta against "Chicagoland?"
Wikipedia is not a democracy. Again you have disparaged my good faith attempts to improve the article as a "silly vendetta." Again you have remained anonymous. Speciate 19:38, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
If it isn't a democracy, then why do you insist on making this contentious change? And who cares (except for you) about anonymity? Do you think that by putting "Speciate" on your inane posts your identity is revealed to the world? Signing your posts means nothing. NOTHING. Constructive changes to this page are welcome. One need look no further than your contributions page to see that you are ideological in your edits. Taking out language you like, slanting posts towards your POV....
Not signing your posts means that we cannot see what other contributions you have made to wikipedia. There is nothing wrong with having an ideology, perhaps you should research that term. Anyway, I fail to see how enlarging the area in which graduates of your school are allowed to be "leaders" is bad. Speciate 20:31, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Believe me, I know more about "ideology" than you ever will. Your unconstructive changes are not appreciated. You cannot make the claim you did without citing. Did you go to the school? Do you know what you are talking about? Based on your other contributions, this wouldn't be the first time you were shooting off about something which you obviously know very little (see discussion of who uses the term Chicagoland).
Wow, you called me "inane" and somehow know that you know more about ideology than I ever will. Why would it matter if I went to the school? My edits are an effort to make wikipedia better. Speciate 02:49, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Why do you insist on making this continued change? You keep claiming that I think I have some right to ownership of the page! I have made no such claims. I didn't even go to the school (which you also assume). I have attempted to compromise here, you just refuse to include the word Chicagoland, which, again, is a valid wikilink. I have followed your changes all over wikipedia...you have gone through article after article taking out this word, that is your opinion. You don't get to force your opinion on wikipedia. The word is a valid link, used ALL THE TIME in and around Chicago. You don't want the word. I do. Others do too. I have attempted to compromise, you don't accept compromise.
Perhaps you were the one who reverted many of my other edits, then, Mr Anonymous? My view, and the reason I improved many pages with the unencyclopedic term, is spelled out where I made those changes. The vast majority of those changes went unopposed, because people recognized that my edits were improvements. See my comments on the ChicagoIand talk page itself. Why you have chosen to St Rita's to have this discussion is a mystery to me. If you are so fond of the term ChicagoIand, why don't you find a source listing which counties it is. I put a citation needed tag on the first paragraph. Nobody has been able to find a source. Speciate 17:17, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
Your changes are not an improvement. As long as you continue to make changes without reconsidering this, attempting to reason with you is futile.
Please don't call what you are doing "reasoning." All you are doing is insisting on the term ChicagoIand. Speciate 19:03, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
Pot. Kettle. Black.
Why are you persisting in this unnecessary, unhelpful change? It doesn't improve the article. What is your purpose here? Go fight your silly vendetta against "Chicagoland" elsewhere.
