 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * The thing about "Ben Franklin" is that it's one of the most commonly used nicknames for the school, which is mentioned in the lead. It's often how people distinguish between this school and Franklin High School in Franklin, Louisiana.  But if it's really an issue, I'll go ahead and change those instances.  As for the trivia section, I agree that it could be better incorporated, but I was also under the impression that Manual of Style guidelines were strongly recommended for GA articles, not required.  Regardless, I'll start to see if I can get rid of the trivia section. --Jh12 (talk) 03:35, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.

 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * I'm not sure about the course listing either. I think perhaps I'll remove it for now until a section properly describing the curriculum can be created.  The notable alumni list is tricky, partly because it's a recommendation of Wikiproject Schools, yet it 's still a bit too short to merit its own page as with Stuyvesant_High_School.  It's also largely discretionary as to who is worthy of inclusion. Not quite sure what to do about that. I think the main issue definitely is a few too many lists.  Whether that makes it unworthy of GA is your call.  Thanks!   --Jh12 (talk) 03:35, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I've gone ahead and removed the course listing. --Jh12 (talk) 10:00, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Much better now. I'll add another one of these, since I don't know how to strike out fields in the GAList template.
