[edit] Notable alumni

The following were listed, I think, as alumni, but they were removed from the article because the fact that they attended Trent College was not verifiable. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 17:43, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

• Prime Minister of Thailand Kukrit Pramoj
• Prime Minister of Thailand Seni Pramoj [1]
• Flight Commander Captain Albert Ball
• Prince Alexander Obolensky
• Sir David Gillmore
• "JJ" Jeczalik, member of Trevor Horn's The Art of Noise
• Dr John Birch, International Recitalist and Concert Organist
• Ian Lake, distinguished pianist, teacher and composer

I think it is rather terrible that anyone has been trying to vandalise our old schools listing, Trent was an excellent school and will always continue to be. Please only leave positive comments. I met met many nice friends there including, David Tarquin Grange, Phil Large Clark and David Arthur Budden, Adam Arderdanmost Smith. By John Christie (Pupil)

I have added one reference, please add any more that can be found. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 18:33, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Albert Ball's association with Trent is detailed in Albert Ball, VC (Gillian Elias, 1993) . There're also several memorials to him at the school itself but I doubt that counts. --Niu 01:25, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism

[edit] Any chance of semi-protection on this page?

Visit Requests for Page Protection, where any user can request protection. Just follow the instructions at the top of the page, and an admin will take a look. —Krellis 15:27, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

I went ahead and made the request after reverting yet another bit of vandalism, and the page has now been semi-protected by an admin. If you check out WP:RFPP within the next few hours you can see the Trent College entry as an example of how you can do this in the future. —Krellis 16:38, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for that, I didn't realise there was a formal way of requesting protection. Ram4eva 18:17, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

No problem, I'm glad to help out, and now you know about it for if you need it in the future. —Krellis 21:23, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jonathan Lee

Contrary to the article, Jonathan Lee did not retire from his post as Headmaster until the summer of 2006. Is there any way that this can be corrected? Jonnymuir 14:48, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Founded by a puppeteer? Surely not

The page pointed to by the internal link to Francis Wright claims he is a British actor, puppeteer, and writer. Seeing as he isn't dead, why not invite him to Speech Day?
