[edit] Assessment

Assessing as B / Mid. A reasonably good article, but some further work is needed. The first thing that can be noticed is references - there are very few for an article this size. Try and add more especially for completely unreferenced sections such as history, you can use the school website, but it is a primary source, and secondary sources are better for an encyclopaedic entry. It would help the look of the article if more pictures were added, some of the campus would be fantastic. The article currently covers a lot but there is room for expansion, some information on alumni in particular is needed.

The other issue is the school song. There has been a lot of debate and controversy over including the school song in an article. First, is including it a copyright infringement? If it is not in the public domain or under the GNU Free Documentation License it should be removed. Second, consensus is that school songs should not generally be included in Wikipedia anyway. If copyright issues are resolved, the text itself should be moved to Wikisource - go to the bottom of La Martiniere Calcutta and it is possible to find a good example on how it can be done.

I am giving the article Mid importance as the school has some notable uniqueness, however more to show this would be good. Camaron | Chris (talk) 15:47, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
