Seckinger High School

(
)

Created by Aoidh (talk). Self-nominated at 13:18, 11 July 2022 (UTC).

  • New article (from today) that's long enough and neutral. Suitably referenced. Earwig is happy. Nominator is QPQ-exempt (one credit thus far; currently three nominations open). Easy-to-fix article issues are that it says that the opening of the high school created approximately 200 new jobs (which doesn't make sense as the school isn't open yet) and the WP:SEAOFBLUE of the lead sentence. With regards to ALT0, I'm not sure about the tense given that the school isn't open yet. Other than that, the hook fact itself checks out.
  • @Schwede66: Thank you for reviewing this. I based the lede on Amador Valley High School, a FA so I kind of followed its lead on the lede sentence, but I'm happy to adjust the over-wikilinking, I'm just unsure which should be unlinked. As far as the jobs, the school opens in less than one month; the positions have already been filled and the faculty and staff have already started working. There were tons of articles about the hiring of various faculty and coaches that I opted not to include because of the WP:SCHOOLS consensus that only the principal should generally be mentioned in high school articles. As far as tense, I used present tense because the school is built and faculty in place, they just haven't opened to students yet, which is the only future tense I used, but the curriculum is already in place and students have already selected their courses per this timeline (which shows dates based on which high school they previously attended, if any) which is why I used present tense for the curriculum. - Aoidh (talk) 22:45, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
  •  Done - I rearranged the lede to remove the consecutive wikilinks, and added a sentence about the staff being currently in place, and just waiting for students. - Aoidh (talk) 15:01, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
  • I'm looking at incorrect capitalisation and a link to a disambiguation page, though. Schwede66 15:57, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
  • Sorry I fixed both. - Aoidh (talk) 16:47, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
  • Good to go. I noticed that there’s a navbox for this topic and you might want to add it to this article (and include the school in the navbox, too). Schwede66 17:00, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
  • @Aoidh: The article says that the curriculum focused on AI, but does not say that it is a theme. (I'm an educator, and there's a difference between the usage of those terms in edu-babble.) Can this fact be added to the article and cited? Thanks, Z1720 (talk) 13:32, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
  • @Z1720: I can absolutely do that, I’ll add the source as soon as I get back home. - Aoidh (talk) 16:28, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
  • @Z1720: The source already attached does say "The school will be the first to introduce curriculum with an artificial intelligence theme" so I don't think an additional source is necessary, but I did rewrite the sentence in the article to match and reflect the theme language. - Aoidh (talk) 17:41, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
  • Reading tick per above review, my concerns have been addressed. Z1720 (talk) 17:44, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
