Vandalism of Gonzaga College SJ page
Please refrain from further vandalising the Wikipedia page of Gonzaga College SJ with defamatory content about the activities which a former staff member may have engaged in before he was employed by the college. This is not a reflection on the college and does not belong on the Wikipedia page. If you want to draw attention to the activities of the individual in question, consider creating a page about him or the school where he perpetrated his alleged abuse. Thank you Government with??

 * Hello, . I will be removing the above allegation, as it is not just nonsense but rather unfair, given the care I took in reviewing this matter. You made this Gonzaga College deletion before, were reverted by an independent editor - and then put it back. I reviewed it "cold" afresh, and found the item valid to include, but needing confining wording, as only one allegation was made relevant to Gonzaga, per the source (one of the most reliable related to Ireland). So the limited relevance was reflected.  It is in no way slanderous - and such a claim is legally ill-advised, as the Irish Times might take it the wrong way, especially as they were relying on Garda input - and throwing "legal" allegations at other editors is frowned on here. You are very welcome to help, and your edit updating / correcting re. facilities is great to have, for example - but there are norms of behaviour... I take it that you act with the best of intentions, but you need to respect the work of others too. SeoR (talk) 14:40, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
