I must say, I am quite impressed with the work you have done here, Dom. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.210.24.14 (talk)

[edit] Unseen edits?

I noticed when I went to edit something on this page that there were entered values that aren't showing up on the page? Eg: grades 7-12 and student publications: the Tower.

[edit] Name?

Why is this named 'The Bishop's School (La Jolla, California)' when La Jolla isn't a city, but rather is a neighborhood in San Diego? Don't believe this is following wikipedia guidlines for naming articles. This should be named 'The Bishop's School (San Diego, California)'. I propose a move.

La Jolla is special. See the 'Identity' section on that page. Like Washington DC. -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 01:47, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other

I wanted to add in the sidebar box the names of the publications at the school (The Tower (the newspaper) and the Daily Urinal) but I can't get my edits to show up. Could someone correct this for me?

Thanks for wanting to contribute. It isn't a technical problem, it's a verifiability problem. "The Daily Urinal" is an uncommon name for a newspaper. I checked a bit on the web and coouldn't confirm it. Do you have a source that we can check out? -Will Beback · · 08:51, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

I added back the Tower, since I know that one's legit. (Well it was back in the 90s...) -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 13:20, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

It's still called the Tower. thedialyurinal@gmail.com is the DU's email. There used to be a website from last year but it was apparently taken down (as it doesn't show up on my Google searches anymore). The DU is a fairly new publication at Bishop's (it is fighting with the Tower for the top publication spot). I think the DU was established in 2004. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.137.79.253 (talk)

Is it legit or an underground student thing, though? -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 18:27, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

As far as I am aware it is student run (with school approval). They may have a faculty adviser but I don't think so. It is a more reliable publication than the Tower and has higher stature with student body. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.137.79.253 (talk)

I'd feel better if we could find a ref to it on the website before adding it. No offense, but this is all unverified at this point. -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 19:53, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Daily Urinal

I am the assistant editor of The Daily Urinal. It is an independent paper but it enjoys a far larger readership and level of respect than the official school newspaper, "The Tower." You can e-mail us at thedailyurinal@gmail.com and we will send you a few of our issues for verification. We lack a website right now because the paper is in effect run by two people (the editor and myself) who are very busy otherwise. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.27.65.11 (talk) 23:54, 2 May 2007 (UTC).

So what you're saying is that it's not a 'school' paper, which means it shouldn't be in the infobox. -- Ipstenu (talk|contribs) 01:45, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
