Talk:Christian Brothers' College, Perth

Improvements

History section which has all of the info regarding the brothers coming to WA, fundraising for the school to be built, and the eventual split of the college into AC and TC.

Sports section - being a founding member of the PSA and what sports it did before the PSA.

Alumni section

Pictures - coat of arms, main building (the capola from that is currently at the entrance to Aquinas) and maybe some establishment pictures.

that is about all that this article can do atm. Smbarnzy 08:26, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Pictures need to be larger if public domain.DownUndr 14:45, 21 September 2007 (UTC)DownUndr

PSA Template

Christian Brothers College is not part of the PSA currently so it should be removed

But it was part of the PSA, and the template does not stipulate as to whether it is for former or current members of the PSA, possibly you could edit the template if you feel so strongly about it Smbarnzy 13:03, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Template overkill!

Please, if you care about Wikipedia, do something about all those templates!! Two lines of article about a defunct school then an entire screen of school groups it once belonged to almost sounds like something that belongs at Bad Jokes And Other Deleted Nonsense. 58.7.135.131 16:58, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Points and moan

1. Templates - I agree... almost as annoying as anonymous comments ... but I have deleted a template ...it was easy. 2. Schools project! This is our collaboration?... we discuss what to do about things and then do them... dont we? Have I missed seeing the assessment of B on the assessment page? Get it fixed. Oh ... I would say it was "start" maybe B ,,, its a bit short at present but I'd defer to someone using our procedures. Victuallers 20:02, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Agree with start-class, im going to change the WP:Aus rating aswell.Twenty Years 01:44, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Re-assess

This article essentially duplicates most of the information which is already contained in the articles on the two successor schools. Indeed all the CBC alumni are on the Aquinas page as are quite a few pre-1937 pictures. I've now placed comments on the talk page of the Aquinas College, Perth article. I would suggest that the contents of this article should merged with the articles on the other two schools. If the consensus is that this article should be retained then the CBC material should be transferred from the Aquinas article. I agree that there are too many unnecessary templates at the bottom of the article. A whole template for one school seems quite unjustified. Finally if this article is kept it should be renamed as Christian Brothers' College to include the missing apostrophe. In view of the duplication I think the start/low rating is justified.

It will not be merged (as i gather from the conversation at the other talk). CBC alumni (about 10 notable) make up a small number of alumni on the AC article. On the notability side of things. I think it should be mid importance. It was the first Christian Brothers school in WA, and one of the first secondary boys boarding schools in WA. It was a founding member of the PSA. Every other PSA school is mid importance (or better). Just because information is duplicated in two other articles, it doesnt seem to de-grade its notability. I think you have done a fantastic job of assessing all of the other 7 PSA schools, but this one has been slightly missed.Twenty Years 08:41, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

The low importance was because the article in its present state didn't seem justified as the information is already provided in much greater detail in the Aquinas article. As the consensus seems to be that CBC does merit a separate article and assuming that the historic material and alumni will be moved then I've upgraded it to mid. Dahliarose 09:08, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Think youve nailed it on the head, apologies if i was a bit scathing. I will probably ask another member of WP:SCH to review it, im not saying that you got it wrong (i think you got it right), but i just want to make sure that it was a fair importance rating, and that my comments didnt put you under pressure to change it. Thanks. Twenty Years 10:05, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Re the rename, in principle I agree, but can we cite anything to support this? I always think of St Georges Terrace as a non-apostrophe example when there possibly should be one. Re importance, I agree with mid. Re a merge, strong oppose. —Moondyne 10:35, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Um, can you just take my word for it =P. I agree to it. I am the resident AC-expert :) Ill try and whip something up. Twenty Years 10:37, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

I have no doubt that you'll find something, so say be bold (keeping the redirect). —Moondyne 11:04, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
