This page was never endorsed by Norwood School. Demetri

I for one was trying to remove weird POV bits that didn't seem important, im afraid that considering this page is basically open to editing from the public, expectations that content will assuredly remain the same might not be feasable :/. Homestarmy 04:31, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The above two message were, perhaps misktakenly, removed by User:Demetri from this page - restoring them M a rtinp23 19:17, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Norwood School's administration is very concerned about the content that was posted on this page and also the main page. This content was malicious and we are vigorously pursuing the matter. I am attempting to rectify the content.Demetri

Wait, what exactly was malicious? Homestarmy 14:09, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Plese also note that if you have a problem with an article, you shuld explain that problem fully on the talk page (this page) before making edits. As I'm sure you appreciate, wikipedia has a great many policies to facilitate the smooth running of the project. One of these (which is a core principle) is the No-one owns an article on wikipedia. I appreciate that you are working in the best interests of the school, but please rember to source any admissions to the article - that means you should make direct links to any statements of fact (not just a broad link to the school website, which backed up none of the claims in the piece). Can I ask you, if you are interested in improving the content, not just to blank parts of the content (whether sourced or not - it's better to find a source than to delete), but rather add meaningful, well sourced and neutral edits to the article. I really hope that you can find it in yourself to edit in this way - if you're part of a company, please don't allow any bias to seep into your contributions.

Religion and Spirituality[edit]

On 4/9/07, a user at the IP address 172.190.234.46 added comments about the retirement of Head of School Richard T. Ewing, Jr. These comments are not supported by any citation or attribution. Furthermore, they appear to be factually inaccruate. If such news were true, Norwood School would have made an annoucement. In fact, no mention of these retirement plans has appeared in Norwood publications or in local media. I am, therefore, proposing deletion of this comment if it is not voluntarily removed by the editor who made it.

This section has been tagged as lacking proper references since 3/27/07. I am now deleting the comments without sufficient citations. In addition, the comments about chapel made by a user at IP address 172.167.122.7 do not meet Wikipedia's criteria for a neutral point of view.

History section[edit]

The history section of this article was a copyvio from the school's website. I have removed it. Shimeru 10:06, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I revamped the entire history section so that it is mostly free of peacock terms. I also deleted the "About" section since it had no or little relevance to the article. Though there is still much work to be done, I believe that we're getting somewhere.-(Wikipedian1234 (talk) 19:05, 12 October 2009 (UTC))[reply]
