why's Robin Ticciati on as a "famous alumni"? is he really that famous? (really I just want to put myself on there...I'll keep working on it. give me another year or so) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.21.214.190 (talk • contribs) 20:06, 24 March 2006
Well, fame is always a debatable thing, but he's already been profiled prominently by various media in several countries. Also, if you Google his name it finds "about 18,100" results, and I don't believe there's anyone else with that name. He's certainly "out there" and rising fast. Not a household name, admittedly, but very few classical musicians ever get to be household names outside the world of classical music. Big Brother contestants, however, do (for a short while, at least) become household names. Go figure... And, by the way, is there, or should there be, a Wikipedia policy on notability? Should someone be considered notable and worthy of mention only if they have popular celebrity status? Or is notability through some sort of "contribution" to the world (even if not widely known about) acceptable too? I say, at least in the context of Wikipedia, if in doubt put it in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.8.102 (talk • contribs) 17:27, 26 May 2006
Yeah, maybe you're right. I just wish it was Wikipedia's policy to only allow big brother contestants the title of "famous or notable" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.21.214.190 (talk • contribs) 10:04, 6 June 2006
I agree. Robin Ticciati is famous. Had a full page in the Evening Standard yesterday (08/05/07) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.217.112.50 (talk • contribs) 10:47, 9 May 2007
[edit] Latin Grace?
Following the strange insertion and removal of latin grace (4 December 2006), User:Dr. Peter Feuerstein added it again on 20 December (a more correct version this time) - this is his only contribution. It's since been reformatted slightly (21:22, 2 April 2007 195.217.52.130). It's also not entirely correct, according to the College Handbook. Should it be there at all? I've corrected it and moved it to its own section (which seems to be more sensible), but I think either it should be expanded on (e.g. as a part of ===Catering===) or removed entirely.

[edit] Lists of masters and alumni
Is it acceptable to move the list of masters to a separate article page, e.g. Masters of Clare College, Cambridge, and similarly move the list of alumni to e.g. Alumni of Clare College, Cambridge? Removing the two lists from the main article would appear to me to improve its structure considerably. Comments? -- MightyWarrior (talk) 22:39, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
