Plainfield_North_High_School#Controversies
I'd like for someone to have a look here. I made a quick edit which you can see in the history, but there are still some issues here--for starters, "in the midst of a trial" said one of the sections, and that was ages ago. I'm wondering if maybe all of it should go. Drmies (talk) 00:23, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Drmies:. The events in that section are so old that today they are totally trivial. Furthermore, it is not this project's purpose to name-and-shame schools (as in a neighbourhood tratsch newspaper) and their non notable staff - which is already an infringement of BLP. Do go ahead and remove the entire section. I would have done it myself but a) I am no longer the coordinator of this schools project, and b) I largely retired from Wikipedia 2.5 years ago, and I'm now too old and too lazy.

Royal namesakes
This page needs help. I'm compiling the details of all schools in the British Isles and elsewhere named after various royals. It could prove to be quite a long list. Robin S. Taylor (talk) 21:53, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
- Especially as you'd need a reliable source, in the case of any school where there is ambiguity (i.e. "The King's School", "Queen's College", "Prince of Wales College") to prove the school was named after that particular royal. You can ditch the "New York" entries as well, as they clearly aren't named after an actual royal. This would be better as a category, wouldn't it? Black Kite (talk) 17:30, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
Further reading section
I've recently come across a couple school articles with a Further reading section, of which contained the school district map. Should this be included here? And aside from school district maps, what would be appropriate to include, if anything, in a Further reading section? TheGEICOgecko (talk) 00:08, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
- When I placed a district map, I put it in the demographics/student body section, though most high school articles don't have a demographics section either. It could also go in the campus or location section. "Further reading" in other articles I've seen is usually where books are listed that aren't used as sources, so many, if not most, articles don't need them. They are similar to "See also" sections, used only for related wikilinks not already in the article text. --JonRidinger (talk) 12:20, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

This image said to be non-NPOV in arming teachers. Comment on article talk page if you can; I will also link that discussion to this notice. Bluerasberry (talk) 00:42, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

- Would one of the members of this WikiProject mind taking a look at this question and also this article? It appears the the person asking the question actually waited a year for a response, but didn't try any other way of seeking assistance during that time. Most likely it's not a highly watched article and thus nobody noticed the question. FWIW, I only found it from WP:HD#Picture of yearbook cover in article about school. -- Marchjuly (talk) 10:13, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
Recognized content
A template appears above the recognized content section that a bot automatically updates the list of recognized content. However, I found that at the very least, it did not update the quality rating of vital articles (I updated it manually). I'm not sure how the bot works, but is it possible for someone to check that the bot is updating everything properly? TheGEICOgecko (talk) 01:40, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
Waterdown District High School
Would someone from WPSCHOOLS mind taking a look at Waterdown District High School? No sources are cited, but perhaps there's a way to keep some of the content or improve the article. All the recent coverage I found after a quick Google search, however, seems to related to some serious problems that seemed to have happened last year at the school. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:42, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
