[edit] Cleanup rationale

As most high school articles on Wikipedia do, this article does not have much verifiable information, nor sources for it. After cleaning it up, it is a bit better, but I'm sure the page will be vandalized over time and will grow naturally. I plan on adding pictures and expanding the high school pages into their own pages. This article deserves the classification I gave it for the time being until the guidelines on the project page are complete. mxdxcxnx T C 20:29, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spicy chicken?

Can anyone argue, with reliable sources, that the mention of "spicy chicken days" is at all notable or encyclopedic? (ESkog)(Talk) 04:58, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Uh, it is popular, but I doubt notable. --Rory096 02:36, 14 March 2006 (UTC)


The cafeterias serve Spicy Chicken weekly and it is a running joke in the school (among the less mature kids) to holler it as some sort of chant. Mentioning it is not necessary or appropriate for a Wiki entry.--129.21.106.93 05:02, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name

Does anyone know where this strange name came from? If anyone has a reliable source, that might be something to go on the page. Chris 22:06, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

It's been the name of the surrounding neighborhoods for I don't even know how long (not officially, though, even though there was a movement to make HHH a village of its own, but I won't bore you with the details). I don't think anyone really knows what it means (as in is it hills that are half empty and half solid, or are the hollow hills cut in half?). --Rory096 05:45, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
I've read a lot about the history of our neighborhood, but I haven't come across any true derivation for Half Hollow Hills. The library in Melville has a great essay (old, though) on the history of the Town of Huntington. mxdxcxnx T C 19:41, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
  • I've heard that the name comes from the local geography consisting half of hollows and half of hills, but i'm not sure if that's true, or even verifiable. Firestorm 21:40, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
