The `Reid` Leadership Program[edit]

This is utter drivel!!! Alasdair Reid has only continued the leadership program he was given when he became Principal. The few changes that have been made have been made by members of the DPD and other departments at the school. 194.81.255.32 (talk) 15:06, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of unverifiable info[edit]

I have removed unverifiable and trivial info for which I provide explanations below: 1. (diff) Links provided as sources (link1 & link2) are dead links. As such these cannot be used to source names of people, or any other info for that matter. 2. (diff) There is no mention of Hebron school in Kalki Koechlin, Pranav Mohanlal & Gautham Karthik (or even in refs given in these articles. Since unsourced, I have removed them. 3. (diff, diff) I have merged multiple one line sections into a single section under a common section title. 4. ([1], http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hebron_School,_Ooty&diff=next&oldid=528455052) Removed unsourced info. Reads as an important piece of info that can be added if a source can be provided. Please provide valid rationale and /or reliable sources before reverting the above changes. Cheers.

from WP:USI
Wikipedia's verifiability guidelines require all information to be citable to sources. When information is unsourced, and it is doubtful any sources are available for the information, it can be boldly removed.

If you think a source can be found, but you do not wish to supply one yourself, you can add the template [citation needed] ([citation needed] will also work) after the statement, which will add [citation needed]. This will encourage someone, often the editor who initially added the statement, to add a citation for the information. Negative unsourced information about living people shall be removed immediately without the use of such a template.

Kindly, refrain from deleting information unless it's an unreasonable claim and there are definitely no sources available. Please add "citation needed" instead of deleting. No-one benefits by simply mindlessly deleting that other people have worked hard to contribute.
Thank you.

Rationale for Keeping Information/Reverting Deletion:
  • The revised version by Surajt88 is characterized by compressing information from different topics into bigger paragraphs and fewer sections, making it difficult for viewers to read easily.
  • The revised version deletes lots of information, even though it is citable although currently unsourced. The information is neither malicious nor exaggerated, and is entitled to stay on the page with the "citation needed" tag until sources can be found.
  • The rationale for publishing such information on Wikipedia is explained by the fact that most other school pages have information of a similar nature. Alumni, students and and other interested parties will benefit from such information.
  • No-one benefits by the mindless deletion of information that others have worked hard to contribute. Similarly, no-one is harmed by publishing the said information.
  • Surajt88: I am not stopping you from contributing information or otherwise improving the article. However, all you are doing right now is deleting information that others have worked hard to contribute. What is your rationale behind that? As you can see from the Wikipedia Citation policy, citable information can remain in the article until sources are found. Only when it is doubtful that any sources can be found does information need to be deleted - clearly it is not the case with this article.
Thank you for splitting the History section into two; that was a good, positive contribution. Such contributions, I am sure, are welcomed by all. I hope that you will undertake similar, helpful editing in future.
Best,

Please provide a source if you can one for the "Administration" section. I have left the section for now pending your providing sources. Suraj T 12:40, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Reasons for Reversion:
  • 1. Poor English grammar, which degrades the quality of the article. See esp. History Section.
  • 2. Unnecessary deletion: just because you cannot find sources, does not mean that others cannot find them too.
  • 3. Unnecessary deletion of bullet points, making it harder for viewers to read. See esp. History Section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alan.Gilfroy (talk • contribs) 13:07, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
