[edit] US-centric
Is it really US-centric to not specify that Oregon is in the United States? Anyone who clicks on the Oregon or the Medford link can find that out. As far as I can tell from the disambig page, there are no Oregons that aren't in the US... --Alynna 18:10, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
- As I see it, it's more a question of establishing proper context - users shouldn't have to click across multiple articles just to find out which country a particular school is located in. There are 700 million English speakers in the world, and it's fairly likely that most of them don't know Oregon from an Oreo cookie. 217.155.20.163 00:20, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

- If you browse through USA-related the articles on Wikipedia, many, if not most, do not specify a country, and merely specify city and state. I find your rationale a little off. The reason that we link article to other articles is so that we don't have to explain everything in one article. And besides, the stub is not Oregon, USA schools, it is Oregon schools.

[edit] School Themes
I recently added the school themes section, but I'm not sure how far back the themes go, and what they all are. When I get a chance, I'll browse through my yearbooks, but I won't know what was the "theme" back before the 2003-2004 as that's my earliest yearbook. --Nick2253 18:30, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- Themes have been corrected by an unknown contributor --Nick2253 05:37, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Stub-ness"
I feel that this article really is starting to blossom into the real deal. How much more do we need, if any, before we remove the stub classification? I say that we're beyond stub-ness, but I'd like some more "yeahs" before taking action. --Nick2253 18:34, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- No longer a stub. Look at Clackamas High School and other pages for ideas about expansion. --Liface 19:45, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:South Medford Panthers2.jpg
Image:South Medford Panthers2.jpg 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:38, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
