Talk:New School (disambiguation)

Predominance of the New York City institution
Moving "The New School" up to the top of the list, as it is the only one with that official name. The current geographical setup appears to be designed with the intent of elevating the UK school to a position of prominence. Questions have been raised about NPOV at Talk:The New School regarding that school. --Chancemichaels 16:55, 20 September 2006 (UTC)Chancemichaels
 * In the interim, two editors with blank user pages have in turn put two relatively unknown institutions at the top of the page. It's time to make this clear, quantitatively:
 * A Google search gives
 * about 2,330,000 for "the New School".
 * Of the first 20 (why bother looking further?),
 * #4 is the WP article on the New York City institution
 * #5 is for a Delaware school
 * #17 is for a Maine school
 * The other 85% are in the domain newschool.edu, for the topic of The New School.
 * Dropping "The" gives
 * about 12,400,000 for "New School".
 * Those results include new hits for
 * the accompanying Dab page
 * a Pennsylvania school
 * http://www.parsons.edu, which appears to differs from http://www.parsons.newschool.edu/ only in their dynamic images not being in lockstep
 * the USNews review of The New School
 * (non-repeatably) "Brand New School", a commercial film/video school
 * I infer that
 * "New School" and "The New School" both mean primarily and overwhelmingly the New York institution,
 * the accompanying Dab's title New School should become a Rdr to that institution's article, and
 * the accompanying Dab should moved to New School (disambiguation).
 * The purpose of this is not to solve the spamming of the Dab page, but it's nice that the moved Dab page will begin
 * The New School is ....
 * which should help. --Jerzy•t 21:26, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

New School of Music
A NYT obit, or rather the correction to it, does a good job of encapsulating the history of this rd-lk'd topic's names. --Jerzy•t 04:40, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
