High School

I'm just curious, is this the high school you attend? If so, this high school doesn't seem notable enough to be on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a soapbox. Meaning, this article is not written in a Neutral Point of View. I think I might list this article for deletion. Please tell me your input on this.

Please don't delete it. Isn't its significance POV anyways? I do attend it--it's my last year--and all these things are true.

Anyways

Anyways, wikipedia is known so very, very obscure topics, which obviously cannot be found in traditional encyclopedias.

NPOV

The article Horseheads high school is not written in a Neutral Point of View. No matter how true it may seem to you, or the people who attend Horseheads high school. This is an on-line ENCYCLOPEDIA. Only factual information is allowed.

Comments such as: The school is generally good smart students complain that many AP classes are not offered The school is poorly designed

are not allowed and are not considered in a Neutral Point of View. I'll clean up the article so it is written in a NPOV but it won't leave much. SWD316 talk to me 04:56, 18 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

What if

What if I preface my comments by saying "many people consider," which is true?

Or

Or maybe conducted a survey.

""

Or quoted teachers.

Nope

Sorry, but no. That's still a matter of he said/she said POV. SWD316 talk to me 05:01, 18 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

But

But quoting is very journalistic, and Mr. Hynes was fired. That is a fact.

BUT..

Stating opinions about others in a POV from yourself or others is not allowed. Sorry. Anyways, I'm going to list it for deletion because a little High School, unless it has notable popularity for something is non-notable. SWD316 talk to me 05:07, 18 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

?

Would I noot be giving an account if I said a groups of students sent around a petition to . . .

?

Ummm, you thinking it is insignificant is totally POV. It is one of the biggest school districts in the state. Actually, I'm a little bit offended.

POV

To me, some of the stuff on the news, in find, is irrelevant to my life, but it is not the same for others.

Sorry you felt offended but the school I went to was never posted on Wikipedia and it's one of the best High Schools out there. High Schools, unless notable for something famous or infamous are not usually aloud on Wikipedia. SWD316 talk to me 05:17, 18 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Says who. You?

?

If you read the wiki of Ithaca High School, where my sister went, they talk about how the architecture is a problem. POV?
