[edit] Autobiograpy
Hello there! This article appears to be written like an autobiography, at least to the school in question. There is lots of first person talking and bold text highlighting 'Missions' and 'Visions'. Please write it to read more like a proper encyclopedic page :) --RabidJackal 11:45, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
- I don't think it's much of a problem as it's mainly confined to the mission and vision portions which could be in the first person. —Sengkang 16:48, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Continual Vandalism
This page has been under constant valdalism since the end of March. Is there a way to restrict editing of this page to accounts that are older to curb this vandalism?

[edit] Assess
A good start article. You now need to focus on the referencing and use the recommended referencing style so that the references are incorporated within the text. Ask at WPSchools if you need any help. The article must be written in your own words and you must acknowledge your sources. I note for instance that most of the history section has been copied and pasted from the school's own website which is in breach of copyright. You must also adopt a neutral point of view and make sure that any contentious claims (eg, the illustrious alumni) are backed up with references. I would expect a much longer list of alumni from such a prestigious school. The pictures would be much better incorporated into the text rather. You need to explain some of the initials in the achievements section (SYF etc) as these are meaningless to anyone outside Singapore. Have a look at some of the existing school B class and featured articles for some ideas on layout. Ask if you need help. Dahliarose 17:43, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
