Re your remark on my user page. If you are not the person who placed it, please ignore:

Hello, I'm a relatively a new user of Wikipedia. I like the idea of a free encyclopedia, but I can't seem to find an article about my school. I thought my school would have an article in here since it's really famous. Could you ask other users to research on it and create the article? My school is Smith N. Jones High School in Springfield. - 68.72.125.15 16:21, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I'm not the right person to ask. I don't usually work on high school articles, and I think very, very few high schools are notable enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia. You might try User:GRider, User:Anthony DiPierro, or members of the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians, many of whom do have an interest in high schools. Or you can create the article yourself. Be aware that high schools are controversial and sometimes get voted for deletion. If you are certain that most Wikipedians will agree that your high school is notable, go ahead and try creating the article, but try not to be upset if it gets deleted. Be sure all the information in your article is verifiable; cite the sources for your information. This is especially important if the name of the school is odd, as people might be inclined to suspect a prank. Dpbsmith (talk) 17:13, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)

It will also be difficult to prove that the article isn't a prank, as it's been deleted several times as a hoax already. Joyous 18:03, Mar 25, 2005 (UTC)
