Talk:Li Po Chun United World College

Cleanup
Right now, the article is a mess, with all the information presented at once. Can an LPC grad please fix this up? Pdinc 08:22, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

Coordinates
Hey, can someone add the coordinates for the college? I've done it for Mahindra College already, would nice to have them for all colleges (so people like me can finally find out where LPC actually is :-)) How to go about it: 1) Find the college in something like Google Earth and note down the coordinate 2) Put a tag of the type 18.52472°N, 73.58528°W in the Wiki text, it will result in something like this: 18.52472°N, 73.58528°W - which leads users to a page where they can select a map and look at it.

NPOV
This article reads too much like a sales brochure...

Phrases of questionable POV:

"excellent educational platform"

"It also serves as a springboard for local students, whose academic distinction and enthusiastic involvement in community service and extra-curricular activities are commonly praised, to enter prestigious universities all over the globe"

"With the recent and much regrettable death of Mr. Blair Forster" - not to cast doubt on Mr. Forster's character, but wouldn't "With the recent death of Mr. Blair Forster" be more appropriate here?

Edit: Edited the article accordingly.

Edit: We're back to the sales brochure as of 2020, the school has only put outdated exam results as they have significantly decreased. I am new to editing stuff here but I hope somebody can change it.

Criticisms
I'd like to add some of the criticisms of the college from both internal and external sources, but these are mainly first hand and not exactly citable, what is the procedure for things like that? Omishark 03:17, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

clean up
I am an LPC student but I attempted to make it much more neutral. I added a lot of information as well, I'm not sure how much of it qualifies as "encyclopedic" however, so if someone could help me differentiate that'd be great. I think I'll add more information later as to housing and information about the school board as well as controversies on campus recently. I guess I'm viewing the article as "What would I want to know if I was going to visit/attend LPC?" but I'm not sure all of that information would be relevent. Let me know! 219.76.138.70 04:27, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

adhakl;fdha;

I keep on trying to make it more neutral and someone keeps on adding stuff like

"As a result of the achievements in both academics and student development, Li Po Chun is considered one of the best schools worldwide." which you cannot possible add without some reference. I deleted a few extraneous sentences and phrases. Omishark 00:47, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

New “Belt & Road learning and resources centre”, from major donation
Need to add a bit about this new centre, with its political allegience to China: Hong Kong peace college to open Belt & Road centre, allying itself with the Chinese Communist Party. Cossaxx (talk) 18:15, 1 October 2018 (UTC)
