[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Jesuit High logo.png

Image:Jesuit High logo.png 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] Removed several "citation needed" tags

  • Choir winning Highest GPA Academic award in 2006: I was in the 2006 graduating class of Jesuit and I verify this fact first-hand (it was well-publicized at school award assemblies).
  • School going coeducational in 1993: I have had family members and family friends attend the school almost continuously from the early 1970s to the present; I know the history well and, again, can personally vouch for this.
  • Sports Illustrated #1 Ranking: the relevant SI article is linked at the bottom of this article; I believe the "citation needed" was never removed when the link was added.

Please review our Wikipedia:No original research policy. If you could locate published sources which verify this information, it would be preferred. Thank you, Can't sleep, clown will eat me 09:25, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for the clarification. I've added citations for the choir claim and the coeducational claim. However, I would argue that such a policy is counterproductive when an article is edited by one who, say, has regional or community-specific knowledge on a subject that is difficult to find online in mainstream sources (such as the graduate of a high school that prides its history and tradition). cfallin|(talk) 22:25, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Name

I know the address is Portland, but the school is physically within the city limits of Beaverton, so should we move this to the correct qualifier in the title? Aboutmovies (talk) 20:08, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
