Contents

[edit] Content

We should try to build up on the content, and also the format of the article, such that it is comparable to the pages on other top schools, such as Stanford University, Oxford University and Cambridge University. And to achieve this, irrelevant information will have to be put on other subpages or removed, while important information retained. -- minghan 13:53, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

- Reply: I agree. I don't see the names of names of representatives of their student government bodies being placed on their articles. It makes our people look arrogant and egoistic.

[edit] Merge

There is no basis to merge this article with The Chinese High School.

Exactly. -- Миборовский U|T|C|M|E|Chugoku Banzai! 07:35, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pictures

Can someone upload some pictures? -- minghan 15:37, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

And maps too. The official website is pathetic. Can't find much information at all. Didn't they realised that the school compound is so big. People can get lost easily. Should at least provide a detailed map for those visiting the first time.

[edit] Too pro-council?

Neutrality of article is disputed.

[edit] Infobox?

I think HCI is the only Singapore-institution that does not use the Singapore School infobox. For standardisation purposes, change that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by The Toad (talkcontribs) 12:16, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:VANITY and WP:NPOV

Please, this is NOT the place to promote your consortiums. Go read the above 2 wikipedia policies. Frankchn 15:39, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Agree. Lots of unncessary names also. -- mh 18:08, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Following Jonseng's violation of the NPOV policy, I would like to remind editors that Wikipedia articles should follow a neutral point-of-view. As Frankchn has mentioned earlier, this is not a place where you advertise yourself, regardless of your various achievements. Thank you. Angcr (talk) 14:41, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] New structure to article

I would like to propose a new structure to the article. The new skeleton of the article will follow this structure. However, the information regarding Council, Consortiums etc will still be kept. What I hopefully will change is the introduction of new sections, such as Notable Alumni, Curriculum etc. Feel free to share your views here. Thank you. Angcr (talk) 14:50, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
