Talk:St. Joseph's Catholic School Fairfield

Saint Teresa
I moved Saint Teresa to the bottom of the list to keep the list in alphabetical order. Adabow 05:15, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Expansion
I removed the stub template as it isn't really a stub any more; However we still need to expand. I have a few suggestuions below. We need a picture of the school. If someone could get a camera and take a picture of something like all the flags that would be good. We also need to make and develop a section on the uniform.

I have developed a little section for the sustainable garden project--Enviroschools, i also added the school logo. ;) --Antome 05:25, 14 November 2007 (UTC) p.s, i added house colours, if the red is too - then please ask, as i will change it slightly.

Well, we are going to take a picture soon anyway, when we talk to the princible about the article. Antome ''' &#124; talk 20:34, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Image Permission
My Teacher has said we can talk with the principle about the Wikipedia article on Tuesday so maybe then we can get permission to use the school's logo. I think we should also get a picture of the flags.Arsenalfan2 (talk) 02:13, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Actually no special permission is needed, as it can be used under the fair use rules. Dbiel (Talk) 01:19, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

History
A good idea would be to add the school's background/history; the sort of thing we did last year. I would add a section but unfortunately I can't remember much info :P. Arsenalfan2/Antome/Beaver225 could you help? Adabow 07:16, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

--hmm... i believe that tree was used for furniture... im not too sure but i think thats it, also, i added an awards area Antome   Talk  04:37, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Awards section
No offense, but the awards section is a bit in need of touch up. It needs to be expanded a lot, and as the tag says, cite references. Adabow (talk) 07:23, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Does anyone else think that this section is providing minimal and trivial information, and should it be removed?

Hats
The school hats do now have the SJF logo on them. Adabow (talk) 03:38, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Notability and Verifiability
This article has obviously had a lot of care and attention, possibly from people who are actively involved with the school. However, it is still not clear that the article meets the requirements of Notability (schools) - which is a proposed guideline. The main reason it has not been adopted as an official guideline being that too many editors feel it is too lenient in the criteria for notability. The key to asserting notability is to be able to cite a number of non-trivial sources which are independent of the school itself. Some of the material is probably incapable of indepent reference. Other material does not deserve to be there because it is probably true for the majority of schools in New Zealand. dramatic (talk) 08:02, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
