Another article on a Skutt blog citing this stub

Newspaper article on local paper citing this incident, probably the better reference so far Tuxide 04:32, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, the Fremont URL is obsolete now. Use Lawrence Journal-World (Kansas)Tuxide 05:02, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Also Lincoln Journal Star (Nebraska), Grand Island Independent (Nebraska) Tuxide 16:47, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Also Wikipedia Signpost/2006-07-24/Skutt suit. Tuxide 23:53, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Also eSchool News. Tuxide 19:41, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Also Student Press Law Center. Nothing new other than some quotes I haven't seen before (silly attorney thinks it's Wikipedia.com) Tuxide 23:06, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Since it's Original Reporting, this won't go in the article, but I just talked to the records department of the Douglas County District Court (doing research for my blog, joegratz.net), and they don't see any cases with "Skutt Catholic High School" or "Patrick Slattery" (the principal) as plaintiff. There is a delay between filing and availability in their system, however. Also, the plaintiff might be some other entity, like the board of trustees. But for now, there appears to be no confirmation that a complaint has been filed, and it's hard to tell who's named as a defendant. Dreamword 17:42, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

The register is now covering this story http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07/26/wikipedia_school_lawsuit/ GameKeeper 16:18, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I added some more information about the lawsuit in an attempt to give wikipedia users access to the history of this page -- and thus this controversy. Maybe my info belongs on this discussion page and not on the main page. Thoughts? Clotten 03:02, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Those comments were removed either because they were false or uncited and have nothing to do with the current lawsuit controversy. Everything about the lawsuit (except for the humorous "Nebraska moves to Canada" article on The Register) is already mentioned on Wikipedia Signpost/2006-07-24/Skutt suit.  I am from Omaha, and I know nothing more about this lawsuit than what is already mentioned.  Tuxide 03:10, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I wasn't refering to the "truth" of those comments, merely the fact that they were added to this wiki page. Clotten 03:18, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * But don't get me wrong: I'm not going to add them back or anything. I always forget about the signposts...Clotten 03:20, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Verification
The URL to the Omaha World-Herald article is obsolete now, we should probably find one to replace the same URL in the article related to this talk page. Also, I have noticed that many blogs are making inaccurate statements on this subject, such as Skutt Catholic High School has sued Wikipedia or that the edit history was wiped because Skutt officials requested it or removed it themselves. Neither of those are true; Skutt officials are suing an anonymous user (or a group of anonymous users) only to find out who they are, and the edit history was wiped only after I brought up the story on Wikipedia's Freenode IRC channel (see ). I'm pretty sure that if for any reason Skutt officials need to view the edit history containing the defamatory material, then it can be restored. Regards, Tuxide 23:35, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


 * The edit history was wiped before you brought it up - indeed, before this even happened, due to an unrelated incident of vandalism - which may be what's confusing matters... Shimgray | talk | 01:25, 4 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Is there any development on this? I haven't heard anything about this case since July.  The only "news" I've been reading on this incident is about this Wikipedia article itself instead of the lawsuit.  Tuxide 05:15, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Semi-Protection
No, just semi, since most of our problems came from annon IP edits. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 22:28, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Skuttcatholic.jpg
Image:Skuttcatholic.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
