re: edits to Community High School (West Chicago)
First, greetings JoeSer! Welcome to wikipedia, and I hope you enjoy editing the countless articles here. The large banner above includes links to a number of areas which may help you in your editing.

Second, I reverted your edits to this article, and rather than revert and drive off, I thought I would explain why I did this.

Schools articles are guided by the Wikiproject Schools group. This is a group of editors who attempt to establish broad consensus regarding schools articles.

It is generally not the norm to include individual awards for students in school articles, unless they are especially notable, and can be solidly documented by reliable sources.

If you have any questions about what I did, let me know. Happy editing! LonelyBeacon (talk) 21:02, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Hello again, JoeSer!
 * I again reverted the individuals you added to this article. If you go check out WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines;  specifically the paragraph on Extracurricular activities under Sections of the Article, you will note that it specifically states: Specific students should not be mentioned unless they are notable in their own right.
 * Just to be clear: this is not my rule, but is rather the consensus of many, many editors.  Editing against consensus is a fairly upsetting thing on this website.  This article can certainly use expansion, but to keep the article within the consensus guidelines, you might think about expanding it in different directions.  Best of luck to you!
