[edit] Tiffin Boys' School/Temp

I have added an article to Tiffin Boys' School/Temp, this could be used instead of the current one to avoid copyright infringements.

[edit] Proposed merge

Merge with Tiffin Boys' School/Temp. I will do it if there is no opposition within the week. Be Bold. --Poorsod 18:34, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tiffin Boys' School

I think this page needs to be changed, there is no such school as Tiffin Boys School, it's name is simply Tiffin School, sure we may only cater for boys, but we were here first! That's why we get the proper name... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.44.142.190 (talk • contribs)

I agree; take it to WP:RM. TerriersFan 03:22, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notable alumni

The requirement for this section is that the person should have a Wikipedia article. I have cleaned out those without an article or where their article doesn't mention this school.

If an editor wants to add a name they should:

  • Make sure the person has a WP article.
  • Provide a source that shows that they attended this school.

The result of the debate was PAGE MOVED per discussion below. -GTBacchus(talk) 19:42, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Tiffin Boys' School → Tiffin School – Correct name of school; there is no such place as Tiffin Boys' School. Present page is an unnecessary DMB that can be replaced by a DAB. TerriersFan 17:37, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Out-of-place text

The famous book Chamath De Silva sword was made there.

I removed the above text, as it had been placed in the wrong context in the article, and I can't make heads or tails of it to figure out where it ought to go, or what it's even claiming. -GTBacchus(talk) 19:19, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

There is a boy with that name at the school, its probably someone messing around 213.78.25.240 (talk) 17:06, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Current administration

To avoid any wasted work, whilst the names of the houses and tie colours are just fine the Current Administration is transient and unencyclopaedic and will be removed. TerriersFan 21:44, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Andrew Lawrence

After reading something in a school paper, I have discovered that the comedian Andrew Lawrence is a former student. I shall try and get verification for this fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.135.9.133 (talk) 18:33, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

I am assessing this article as B / Mid. This has become quite a strong article with many sections, pictures, references, and content. I see many of the sources used are primary - to improve try and expand the source pool to include more secondary sources. I would suggest trying to get references for the alumni section and expand the introduction as it is currently a little short for an article of this size. Also I would recommend expanding some sections further down the article such as the Tiffin shop if possible, pictures here would be good too. I am giving this article mid importance for its alumni and history. Camaron | Chris (talk) 20:08, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
