Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia, and articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Latymer Upper School. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use the sandbox instead, where you are given a certain degree of freedom in what you write. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:00, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

As an alumnus of the school with thirteen years of study there under my belt, I can assure the commenter that no edits were made in bad faith, and all facts asserted are correct. No attempt at humour was made, and readers looking for accurate information will find additional accuracy as a result of this editor's amendments. 62.232.41.234 (talk) 14:11, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

Furthermore, a closer inspection by the commenter will reveal two notable facts:

1. The reference for the statement preceding that added by this editor is not in fact for Tatler but an unrelated 404 link to a science.org page.

2. The reference to Tatler is used elsewhere in the article but similarly links to a 404 error page.

Therefore, the encomium from Tatler has been removed. 62.232.41.234 (talk) 14:15, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

On that you may be right, I'll check it and remove it if necessary.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

You added the following uncited text which makes damaging claims: "However, alumni of the school since 2008 have remarked on the increasing pretention of students' parents, a phenomenon manifest in the school's decision to allow problematic, abusive and in some cases violent students to remain enrolled following donations from those students' parents." Anything of that sort is far from the required tone for a global encyclopedia, and would certainly require precise citation. It's what I remarked on before and it is certainly unacceptable here. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:27, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
