Also, please cite sources...how can you verify the section of St. Michaels about drama students being druggies, other than original research? A newspaper article of some kind?--jfg284 08:56, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Your new approach
Good to see you and Beyondcapricorn contributing positively (case ini point some changes to Wesley and Xavier). Hopefully this continues and you both become valued contributors to school and other articles on Wikipedia. Harro5 19:56, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Do not upload new drawball images
See Talk:Drawball. Wikipedia does not need new fair use images every few days to document the ever changing drawball. In the same manner that we don't get new pictures every day for newspaper front pages, we don't need it for something even more inconsequential. This is against Wikipedia's Fair Use policy, we now have around 10 orphaned fair use images that are lining up to be deleted. We only need one or two images to show what the drawball is, and we already have those. - Hahnchen 15:11, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- and might I ask under whos authority do you speak?
- In general interests of following Fair Use guidelines. Wikipedia uses as few fair use images as possible. Like a newspaper front page, the drawball is updated every day. We use an image to show what the Drawball is, not its current state. We're an encyclopedia, we're meant to provide timeless information. Look at biographies for example, we do not upload new images of every haircut David Beckham gets. The Drawball is like this, but even more inconsequential. - Hahnchen 17:14, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- Your little tirade against drawball sounds like a personal issue, considering it is far more amusing than david bloody beckham. Join us in turning south korean flags into japanese ones!
- I've nothing against the drawball itself per se. It's the constant bickering that goes on in Wikipedia because of it. Like the List of YTMND fads that was deleted. Almost everything listed for the Drawball were unencyclopedic and unsourced. I actually came across the Drawball article whilst deleting links to the YTMND article. It's been so hard to get any editing done on the article, because as soon as you've got rid of some crap, it gets added back in by LUE/GenMay/OT (delete as applicable) that it's now been protected from anons. - Hahnchen 17:22, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, you'll never hear the end of it if you piss off a forum.
