[edit] Photos of PLC Students

i think that the photos of the plc sydney and armidale students should be removed as they are under the age of 18 and it could be a danger to their safety. i also think that adding the number of staff at the school would be an interesting feature. -a plc student —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.45.121.176 (talk • contribs) 17:42, 6 August 2006 (UTC).

I agree with this, i know one of the girls in that photo and they weren't even aware that they were on the website. -plc student —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 143.238.104.246 (talk • contribs) 18:51, 7 August 2006 (UTC).

I have removed the image Image:ArmidaleSydney.jpg from the PLC Sydney and PLC Armidale articles. It wasn't displaying very well at that size anyway. Blarneytherinosaur 01:21, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PLC Sydney/PLC Armidale alliance

I was just curious as to how I could alter the 'PLC Sydney/PLC Armidale Alliance' section so that it complies to Wiki rules? The announcement by Jeof Falls is the only one I have been able to find that clearly outlines the importance and details of this alliance. Is it necessary to alter his statement? I would appreciate some input so as to improve the quality of this article. 203.206.240.186 03:17, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

I should have explained my reasons for tagging that section.

Obviously you can't alter the statement, although you don't need to quote all of it. It is a good idea to write our own analysis of events, based on available sources, rather than quoting a source word for word. Here's why:

Like all good press releases, this quote is not written in the neutral point of view. I don’t think we need to repeat the unsourced advertising-like sections such as:

"one of our country’s most experienced and successful Principals"

"so that these fine schools can further develop their existing high level of academic and co-curricular achievements"

If this quote represents a notable development in the history of the two schools, the most pertinent part of the newsletter article could be included. Some description of the background and effect of the decision may also be included, where necessary citing Mr Falls, but not quoting verbatum. Blarneytherinosaur talk 03:16, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
