Is there anyone who actually goes to BBC and is editing this page? Carrioncrows 10:02, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

hi there - i've been student at the BBC a few years ago and would have edited this artcle if there was any untruth in it ;) the article isn't very detailed but o.k. -- German-User:Brisbane
Yeah, I'm a current student. I haven't added anything (much) to the article other than the front gate picture; someone else (presumably from the school) is editing it all. SMC 00:53, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Very poor article

This article reads like it was written by members of the school itself, with no attempts at all to hide this. You should be ashamed. I am removing many of the stupid comments.

"Thanks guys!!111" Does not belong in an encyclopedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.45.166.247 (talkcontribs) 16:28, 24 August 2006 (UTC).

[edit] headmasters

1995 seems to be missing from the list of headmasters...Kiran90 08:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Good point. I'll look into it. SMC 11:01, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

The college hymn has been rewritten with a Muslim theme. It's a Christian school with links to the Uniting church. The college war cry is also incorrect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ether0580 (talk • contribs) 13:32, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

This article has now been assessed following a request. The feedback from this was as follows: A good article with a high level of encyclopedic content. However it does have some weaknesses; many sections lack references and others need expanding, such as "Cultural". Some extra pictures would also be great. Camaron1 | Chris 20:07, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:BBClogo.JPG

Image:BBClogo.JPG 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 00:59, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
