Talk:Gladstone Park Secondary College

Cleanup Required

As you can see by the main article basically the whole article needs to be re-written due to vandalism! Things like notable ex students being presidents and rapists is irrelevant (and probably mostly untrue). Anyway, you can discuss things here. Alien- 11:42, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

If you attended the school 'Alien', and had done some research on the school ASWELL, you would know that everything on the page is true. Nowhere does it say that an ex student is a president of any kind. And for your information, the rapist listed as an ex student was a huge criminal case in Melbourne in the early 1990's and is hardly irrelevant. Though to someone whose grammar is half as bad as yours, maybe knowledge takes a back seat to cartoons and the AFL's injury list. That's right....insulted using metaphor. And incase you didnt know, a metaphor is a figure of speech in which an expression is used to refer to something that it does not literally denote in order to suggest a similarity.

PS 'takes a back seat' was the metaphor.

Well, what about "The school has several teachers, 11 of which are male and four of which are female, giving it the highest proportion of male teachers out of any public state school in Melbourne." I'm pretty sure GPSC has more than 15 teachers! I know many (when i say many i really mean lots) people that go there, and there are more than 15 teachers! Also, i'm not stupid! I am in Year 12, and i do know what a metaphor is! As for my grammar in the first comment, it's fine, i think you shuld really learn what proper grammar is and use it!

The quality of your writing and bad use of exclamation marks makes it obvious that you are a product of this sham of a learning facility. You just completely contradicted yourself and as you can see i've taken the liberty of pointing out the spelling and grammatical errors. (There could possibly be more but its late and I cannot be bothered finding them.) I shudder to think that you may possibly be a part of the faculty. - Anon.

Don't worry 'Anon', 'Alien' is not a product of Gladstone Park Secondary College. He (yes, I'm assuming your sex) is clearly the product of today's popular culture in which spelling is far less important than the current marital status of various people who call themselves celebrities and 'Australian Rules Football' is the most important issue of the week. Alien...you are a loser.

PERSONAL DEFAMATION IS NOT PART OF THE SCHOOL'S "EVERYBODY IS EQUAL, EXCEPT THE AUSTRALIANS, WHO AREN'T ALLOWED TO CELEBRATE THEIR HERITAGE" POLICY AND AS A RESULT AND PERSONAL DEFAMATION WILL BE DELETED FROM THIS, THE SCHOOL'S OFFICIAL WEBSITE. (GPSC WISHES IT TO BE KNOWN THAT IT HAS CHOSEN WIKIPEDIA AS THE HOME OF ITS HOMEPAGE BECAUSE GPSC.COM.AU WAS ALREADY TAKEN, NOT BECAUSE IT IS FREE. JUST REPEATING, NOT BECAUSE IT IS FREE).

Umm, just a little note, whoever posted above is just making bull, I am a current student and I see no racial limits in the school, however 2 races dominate the rest in popularity :P

Notable ex-students and claims of vanity editing

First, to the editor here who claims to be editing on behalf of the college: Read WP:NOT. Wikipedia does not provide home page type provisions for any other organisation.

Secondly, the notable students list is in dire need of references. If theses are not added, any unreferenced entry will be removed on grounds of breaching WP:BLP and similar. LinaMishima 03:48, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

I've gone ahead and removed the section, it had quite a few potentially libelous entries. Please include references if you replace any. Kappa 04:27, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Matriculated students?

1500 matriculated students, eh? What's that mean?
