[edit] Assembly Picture

Hi, is the picture Assembly[1] under subtitle "Daily Routine For A Student" from Dagon 1? I have never seen it anywhere in the campus. I left the school in the mid 90s. It doesn't seem to be from Dagon 1 at all. And it is not Dagon Thiri hall either. The caption mentioned "Student assembling in Dagon Thiri Hall" and it's not. I think it is better to remove it if it's not Dagon 1's assembly activity picture. Thanks. --Kyaw 2003 14:46, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I believe it is a picture from a time where there were still "sisters". Look at the nun and the students wearing blue uniform. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.170.46.129 (talk) 02:18, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

The photo is too sharp to be old. And the microphone being used doesn't look that ancient either. And no building in Dagon 1 resembles the background building. I am going to remove the photo. 58.185.162.2 12:41, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the remove, it's a picture from India, I presume. --Kyaw 2003 13:30, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Grammar and general tone

The English used in this article is terrible. Anyone want to start getting their hands dirty and fix all the grammar errors, as well as make the article sound more encyclopedic? --ZettaiBaka 11:50, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm going to attempt the latter by dropping the bomb on most of the articel because it is:

• Terribly written, both grammatically and editorially (Completely biased sounding and puffed up)
• Very possibly a copy-and-paste from a (possibly) copyrighted source
• Unsubstantiated (And given the state of media of the country of the subjects origin and location, possibly impossible to easily verify or disprove). 68.39.174.238 (talk) 22:51, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Dagon-one.jpg

Image:Dagon-one.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 this Wikipedia article 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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Images

Other than the coat and "Mrs. Logie", does anyone else think the images here are terribly low quality, uninformative and of questionable factual accuracy? 68.39.174.238 (talk) 21:17, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
