[edit] Official School Website

http://diamondbarhigh.net/ is the official [Diamond Bar High School] website. Do not change without discussing on this talk page. 71.105.214.182 (talk) 05:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: websites

Both DBHSusb.org and walnutvalley.k12.ca.us/dbhs are official websites. DBHSusb.org was created by the student body while the other was created by a class. Igeoffi 06:27, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

DBHSusb.org has updated resources. We'll put this link first in the article since both are main websites and both are official websites. Igeoffi 05:25, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

DBHS.org is outdated. Remove all instances from article and replace with diamondbarhigh.net. 71.105.214.182 (talk) 06:39, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

This public forum of information is not meant to be a place of vandalism. If you have a necessity to vandalize, pick up a pen and a piece of paper, and have fun. -- Too many people are vandalizing this Diamond Bar High School site. Stop this, for Wikipedia is a site that we all use to get NECESSARY information, not opinionated bias.

A certain DBHS alum who has become a celebrity does not like the notation of her name on this page. This isn't her personal page; she has become a notable alumnae, and constant vandalism (removing her name) takes away from the ACCURACY of this page. --

Whoever would like for that celebrity to be mentioned in this page, find a reference. Add that reference to the page, but remember that this encyclopedia caters to all of us, so the tone of this article needs to be appropriate. Quite frankly, the mention of some things is really quite unnecessary and takes away from the integrity of Wikipedia in general. This article should not be a forum for personal vengeance.

Until a legitimate and verifiable refernece is found, keep the disputable information off. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by A786m (talkcontribs) 16:17, August 23, 2007 (UTC).

"The mention of some things is really quite unnecessary and takes away from the integrity ..." -- what a crock of bull. This is an encyclopedia. Facts are not "quite unnecessary." The repeated removal of the reference is VANDALISM by a celebrity who appears to be ashamed of her field. Why is it? As posted by said celebrity elsewhere, there is nothing wrong with the porn world, and I agree. No judgments from this side, just facts. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.232.171.184 (talk) 23:13, August 23, 2007 (UTC)

To me, it is quite obvious that you have some personal vendetta with some other individual, Wikipedia has become your means to achieve it, leaving Diamond Bar High School in the cross fire. If you want the world to know about this individual than CITE A REFERENCE, or make a seperate page for this individual. But don't make this encyclopedia your slandering forum. Also, please use better language. Although I have many things to say to you, my writing is appropriate. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by A786m (talkcontribs) 03:08, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

To me it is quite obvious that you are deeply ashamed that you have become a celebrity and wish to keep your identity secret. Slander is a heavy charge, and I would think the subject of this little tete-a-tete would not be happy with such careless accusations. Again, you are trying to moralize fact, and you are stating that this celebrity's chosen profession is not honorable. Who are you to make such a judgment? This celebrity, from DBHS, is a worthy person who has become a notable alum of this school. Why do you want to deny her this? You care not at all for the factuality of this page, you want it to be your personal forum. Quit VANDALIZING this page.

I think that you have confused with someone else, and you are deeply mistaken is saying that "...you have become a celberity and wish to keep your identity secret". Do not accuse me of being this individual, for I am just a incredibly angered usurper of Wikipedia, checking to see what they are saying about my school. In what world is becoming that said profession notable and honorable? If you wish to carry out some embarrasment of this individual, create your own article regarding this person. But, I think it is you who is trying to biasly put in information on this site. Next thing we know, every single individual who graduates from this school will be putting their name under the notable alumni section. You obviously have something against this individual, as you previously stated about the person, "...who appears to be ashamed of her field...". How many times, and what language must I mention it - CITE A REFERENCE, and prove that the person is indeed a notable alumni. —Preceding unsigned comment added by A786m (talkcontribs) 18:05, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

Why do you argue this profession is not notable nor honorable? What have you got against porn and a person's choice to work in the field? What makes you God? As for references, they're all over the Internet, but the most telling, I would say, would be Evelyn Lin's admissions on the SDUncensored site. A porn star is nothing more than an actor, and Evelyn Lin's filmography is considerable. She is notable within her field, and as a Diamond Bar High alum -- she acknowledges the fact in one of her films -- she is a notable alum. No embarrassment for her at all. Why do you keep moralizing fact -- fact has no morals. You acknowlege you are an "incredibly angered usurper" -- that is hardly a reasonable position to edit a FACTUAL ENCYCLOPEDIA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.232.207.114 (talk) 22:55, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

Quite frankly, I don't really care if her references are all over the internet. Post a verifiable and legitimate reference for this information. But even then, it is impossible to prove that that field is notable - I know many people who are graduates of Diamond Bar High School, and to some, their professions might be considered notable, but still, it would not be justfied to put their name on that list. Likewise, as it seems this Evelyn Lin is your acquaintance, trying to put her name up here is not justifiable either. —Preceding unsigned comment added by A786m (talkcontribs) 01:35, August 25, 2007 (UTC)

Please find a verifiable reference/source. Please do not re-edit the Notable Alumni section to add it back in without citing a source.

in that case should I add yearbook pictures of Stephanie Hwang (Tiffany from Girls' Generation)? or korean audio clip of her saying shes from diamond bar? Ahhyala 05:11, 10 September 2007 (UTC)


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_%28people%29#Lists_of_people No. Igeoffi 05:05, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Igeoffi, you know what wikipedia is about? putting factual information non-biasedly to be accessed by everyone. When a bunch of DBHS students and alumni add to the page and you delete it calling it vandalism, you are not honoring the principles of this website. Maybe putting the name of pornstars is immoral, but the scandle is a fact and does no personal damage to anyone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.81.48.232 (talk) 20:32, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

76.81.48.232, unless the person is really notable by Wikipedia standards (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_%28people%29#Lists_of_people), I don't see how this is biased. The name currently listed under notable alumni list fit the standards set by Wikipedia. Igeoffi (talk) 00:08, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notable Alumni Section

Please stop adding names to the notable alumni section unless it complies with wikipedia guidlines on notable people.

[edit] Website and protection

I've now fully protected this article to prevent further edit warring over which link should be provided to the school's website. I've also temporarily removed the link altogether, so that neither choice gets the upper hand if nobody chooses to discuss this. If/when discussion occurs, and consensus determines the correct website, the page will be unprotected. - auburnpilot talk 16:11, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
