[edit] Assess

This may have been a top article, but it lacks references. It needs bringing up to standard. Victuallers 08:45, 25 July 2007 (UTC)


This was written by me for Ball High School, (Texaswebscout is Ben Willson in his spare time) it also appears at ballhigh.org/historyTexaswebscout 10:18, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It is well written, can you provide a photograph which is GFDL or public domain? --GRider\talk 21:26, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Austin High was started in 1881. Thus, it is older than Ball.MaroonFrog 18:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

small error but corrected that students are allowed to wear striped polo shirts —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.197.154.8 (talk) 22:49, August 28, 2007 (UTC)

semi-protect. High level of IP vandalism. Nsaum75 22:23, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

I do not agree with protection, the vandalism is not persistant. Wolvereness 22:40, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

maybe its just me but it may be beneficial to put a recent picture of the school on the page as the only one is the very old one from way back. Gurall200 7:50 PM, 7-1-2008

Yes, it could help, do you have one that doesn't violate copyright? -- Signed by Wolverenesst c 05:29, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

     - It will have to be from the internet or google as the only time I am their or could take a photo would have students in it. - gurall200

Its been cloudy as of late....When the sun comes out, I'll go by and take a photo. Nsaum75 (talk) 08:18, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

  • I took a panoramic photo of BHS today and added it to the article. May need some re-arranging, as being a pano it fits in kinda awkward. Nsaum75 (talk) 08:39, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
  fling beautiful.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gurall200 (talk • contribs) 01:38, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Thanks, I figured a panoramic was the best way to go, since some alumni may be viewing the page and might have not seen the school since the expansion in the 1990s that combined the North and South campuses Nsaum75 (talk) 02:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
