[edit] Cleanup Tag
I put up the 'cleanup-school' tag because I think the article needs wikification and a change in content. The text is supposedly taken from the school's homepage and sounds like an advert while it doesn't give the basic information necessary in an encyclopedic article. Kiwiki 13:49, August 12, 2005 (UTC)
I replaced the contents as they had simply been cut and pasted from the schools web site. The article did not even state where the school is located. Gracee 15:10, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
I tidied up the article. There were several spelling errors in the previous entry and most of it was pulled from the school's website.--splashmo 07:33, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
The page still reads somewhat like an advert for the school. I'm a student and I'll be attempting to better the content here. Let me know on anything specific you'd like to see. --Bkingshott 13:42, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
I think the unsourced rumour about the teacher's comment should be removed.Blnguyen 00:02, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
I personally witnessed these comments by the teacher in question. I didn't, however, wish to include his name as it may cause trouble within the school. I am new to editiing, so if it's inappropriate I'll remove it. --Bkingshott 05:17, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
The edits made by 203.113.239.107 and later removed by Can't sleep, clown will eat me, as I can discern involved only adding that the Forge is unattractive. This, even from a neutral point of view, I believe to be quite fair. I would apprecite it if Can't sleep, clown will eat me would inform me of any other reasons for removing the edit. --Bkingshott 23:21, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
I'm an ex student. The page is still a giant advertisement. MHS as usual is riding on the back of its music department to advertise it. Someone should properly update the wiki - rather than just adding, for example, what Big Band has won this particular day.
this is a spot on comment. marryatville is just another average public school that seems to believe running a music programme most of the school does not participate in or care about makes it better somehow.
[edit] Where did people go?
I came to the music program in 1997 from a school in Sweden and only attended the school for a year. Does anyone know if there is a community for former students less cumbersome than the one referred to on the MHS site? (I realize this comment is irrelevant, but I wouldn't trust the school itself to supply me with any good information)
[edit] Vandalism
My notes re: Vandalism in the school were removed by 58.110.17.14 (an IP address resolving to OptusNet in Adelaide. I have returned them to the page. Given the lack of a username or comment I am somewhat inclined to suspect that it was someone from the school who did not wish for this information to become public knowledge. Oh well.

[edit] Where did people go?
To the Swedish guy try looking at myspace to find former marryavtille students you may have some hope. Truthfully, the forge is notably a rather odd looking and pseudo-artistic building and is often referred to as an overstylised deformed spaceship. Additionally the notable alumni aren't particularly notable.
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:MarryatvilleHighLogo.gif
Image:MarryatvilleHighLogo.gif 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 ensure 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.
