[edit] Notable Alumni

  • I have deleted Keanu Reeve's name, because although he was a student, he is not an alumni, because he did not graduate from De La Salle. --Poonie 07:04, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Once again, I do not understand why Keanu Reeves is in the alumni section. He wasn't even a "standout" goalie. Whoever keeps on adding him should actually explain why he is added.

--Poonie 05:36, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

    • I did not add Mr. Reeves, but Alumnus means former student, not graduate. --Usgnus 14:54, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
  • That is misleading though, because Alumni in the sense that the De La Salle Alumni use signifies "graduate", and I have heard of no one within the group mention "Keanu Reeves" as an Alumni, or has he been mentioned by any of the Signum Fidei newsletters as one. So I assume that in that sense, he is not an alumni. It could be possible to put him in another section entitled, "attended" or something like that, but I feel it's inappropriate to put himin the "alumni" section when it's quite obvious that he has nothing to do with the school. --Poonie 09:55, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
    • I added Keanu Reeves with a citation and description that he did not graduate. Not misleading, and might enlighten people on the true meaning of alumni. --Usgnus 19:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Keanu Reeves is an alumnus. Hypothetically, if a student attended for 4 out of 5 years but did not graduate will you deny his attachment to the school?

[edit] Athletics

  • As a former student, I am editing the athletic section, because it seems that the person who wrote it does not have sufficent knowledge of De La Salle athletics, seeing that DEL won multiple championships in the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's before it went public. --Poonie 06:52, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion??

  • Was there a request for deletion on this site, circa June 1?
  • As a contributor, why wasn't I informed of the request?

[edit] Upgrades

  • As a student currently attending this school I will attempt to expand the article as much as possible --Sejo™ 01:58, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge??

A request to merge with De La Salle College Oaklands sounds okay, although the Oasklands article looks like a point form entry; the history is important to be kept in the fuller article! Bacl-presby 19:11, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Merge it. Oakslands entry is part of DEL history. Someone should expand on it with more information.

[edit] Rivalries

The detail was removed in this diff by an IP user, but that user did have constructive other edits, and I'm not decided one way or the other on the materials value (re: questionable to me). Left for the people who frequent this page to decide. [1] --Auto(talk / contribs) 04:49, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
