Talk:Old Boys

If...
If these terms are used outside of the United Kingdom then why is the list limited to schools in the United Kingdom?John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:40, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Good point. I have just added an initial list for South Africa, but more are needed. Moonraker (talk) 05:33, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Why is a person from the Brigham Young college in a remote part of the USA so utterly obsessed with our English school nomenclature - to the exent of scrawling questions all over an article rather than on a talk page, adding facetious comments to category descriptions and spending Christmas day in a traditional act of seasonal goodwill by reopening for the xteenth time debates under CFD? Sorry, but it is very sad. Motmit (talk) 00:12, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
 * John Pack Lambert, I have dealt with most of your queries and left a question mark where I do not have an immediate answer. I see no harm in that. It was helpful for you to prompt these improvements, but may I suggest that in future it would be more correct for such questions to be raised here on the talk page rather than in the body of the article?
