Talk:Saint Ann's School (New York City)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is the list of alumni in any particular order?  — AnnaKucsma   (Talk to me!) 18:27, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] alumni

I think that the list of alumni needs to be severely cleaned up. A good number of these "notables" are painfully obsecure and a few don't appear to have attended Saint Ann's at all. Is there anyone, who pays attention to this article, who would object if we limited the "notable" alumni to people with some name recognition and accomplishment?

... And put into some sort of order (alphabetical?). See my comment above.  — AnnaKucsma   (Talk to me!) 14:22, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Never mind, I didn't see that you'd already handled it.  — AnnaKucsma   (Talk to me!) 14:23, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Ok. So, in a premptive defense of my alumni edit (not that anyone seems to care except for AnnaKucsma): I used a twofold system. First, anyone who seemed to have their own (semi-legitmate) wikipedia page was left as "notable." For the others, if a google search didn't yield any meaningful references to them or their works, they were stricken from the list. While I certainly don't mean to discredit anyone's accomplishments, someone whose work has only been published in their college newspaper or the Saint Ann's Review would seem to pale in comparison to Jennifer Connelly, Akiva Goldsman or, even, Michael Diamond.

(...and no, I don't "mind" Lordjeff06's edits, as they included imposing some sort of order on the list — which is what I said was needed in August.)  — AnnaKucsma   (Talk to me!) 21:51, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
