[edit] Number of Students
I recently updated the number of students to 700, and it was changed back to 525. The correct number is actually 702, which includes 512 undergraduates and 190 Graduate students, as per The Boston Conservatory's Office of Admissions. (I work in the marketing office at the Conservatory.) I've changed it to 702, and I'll add a breakdown of undergrad/grad and a breakdown by division. Agutowski (talk) 15:47, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Composers on faculty
Hello, to the person who added Shoenberg and Sessions as former faculty members, what is your evidence for this? Badagnani 18:18, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] To-do list
What's stated in the to-do list (that there are few articles that link to Boston Conservatory is not true--there are many articles that link to it. Badagnani 23:20, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, that was a weird byproduct of the to-do list being created as an article (it's supposed to be a talk page). I've removed that part. --W.marsh 00:23, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] BoCo
Is there any way to make a link to Boco (disambiguation) when, and only when, people are rerouted to Boston Conservatory from Boco? It seems like there has to be a better way than having an explanation line at the top of the article for everyone to see. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.30.100.59 (talk • contribs)
- No. Reinstated. - CrazyRussian talk/email 01:14, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

- The simple answer is to ensure that Boco and BoCo both link direct to Boco (disambiguation), rather than here. No articles use Boco or BoCo to link here, so this would seem the entirely correct approach. (Anyway, I added the original line after I tried using search to find the two railway-related BoCo articles and ended up here instead!)

- Just to complete the story. There is a current Wikiproject to replace unnecessary instances of pages called 'xxxxx (disambiguation)', where the redirected page can be used instead. I found Boco listed there and requested an admin to resolve the issue. This is why Boco (disambiguation) is appearing in red, as of today.

[edit] Berklee cafe
So the snooty musical theater girls and dancers no longer have to suffer the Berklee Beach? —Malber (talk • contribs) 20:38, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Bostonconservatory.gif
Image:Bostonconservatory.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 02:49, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Advertisement
While I appreciate whoever went through and added so much detailed information, I regret that I had to remove most of it as it seemed to have been written as an attempt to draft a catalog for the Conservatory. Please remember that Wikipedia does not serve as an advertisement for either the Boston Conservatory or any other organization. Pianoguy (talk) 03:11, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
