Nice Page

I am a student at Bellevue High, and just saw this page. Who made it? It is very informative and truly refelcts Bellevue High. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Coastiehelo (talk • contribs) 22:46, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

sweet. go debate —Preceding unsigned comment added by Garnier2385 (talk • contribs) 02:16, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Sovde still around?

I graduated 2001, but I heard Sovde was no longer assistant principle and had moved to Sammamish, a current student should check the details on that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.16.96.169 (talk • contribs) 04:37, 3 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was at Chinook last year and that was when Sovde moved to Chinook. CrazyAwesome (talk) 13:57, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

POV

I have added the article neutrality dispute and quality cleanup because much of this article seems like an advertisement and cites few sources--DerRichter 17:57, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Athletics Section removal

Please provide some reasoning when removing something from the athletics section. --DerRichter (talk) 22:18, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Athletic Section edited to restore content similar to original posting. Please provide explanation for original edit.-- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.140.84 (talk) 08:16, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Athletics Section restored

Information restored to facsimile of original content. DerRichter is not a neutral contributor to the Bellevue page having both graduating from a rival school and posting significant positive content on his alma mater's page while taking down similar content here. Suggest DerRichter be restricted from further editing of the Bellevue site and the the neutrality dispute notice be taken down. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.140.84 (talk) 08:34, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, I have never graduated from a rival school of Bellevue High. In fact, the page of my alma mater needs a lot of work. But since you know me so well, you also knew that I like it when contributors cite their information on Wikipedia, and that they don't remove information that is notable with citations. IP 24.22.140.84 removed the source for the girl's swim team here: [1]. Also, I think this information should be included because of its notability:

The football team is also notable because booster program pays the football coach $55,000 per year and The Seattle Times found in 2006 that "roughly 30 players on the Bellevue football roster last year who didn't live in the high school's attendance area".^[1]

The same standards for notability should be applied to all wikipedia articles, in my opinion. I never meant to offend IP 24.22.140.84. In fact, on this edit: [2], I was trying to just rearrange the notable wins of the football team in chronological order and to wikify the names of the schools which were defeated, as well as retaining the information that was removed. Notability is established, because it distinguishes the football program, and a citation from a reputable source is given. If there is no problem with this chunk of very notable and sourced information, I will add it in later. Thanks--DerRichter (talk) 21:51, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please elaborate on POV tag

I am attempting to expand and clean up this page. Please provide information on the nature of the neutrality dispute. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.140.84 (talk) 05:38, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, start off with signing your name with four tidles after editing a talk page, like this:~~~~. That way, User:Sinebot won't have to do it for you. Then, try to keep the same talk page discussions under the same section to avoid confusion and don't change your previous talk edits after other people have responded. This will just add clarity. Wikicite is a great place to start, and the most useful piece of information for this page is this: <ref name= >{{cite web|url= |title= |accessdate= |format= |work= }}</ref>, which when filled out properly, will provide users of Wikipedia with an outline of where the reference is from just by looking in the references section. Also, please read Wikipedia:No personal attacks, which states that Insulting or disparaging an editor is a personal attack. In addition, this is helpful: Wikipedia:Consensus, because we are here to build consensus and not promote or degrade anyone or any article. Just so you know, signing up for a user account helps also becuase then people cannot see your IP address, an indicator of where you are editing from, and you can remove the neutrality dispute yourself if you feel the page has been improved enough. Happy editing! --DerRichter (talk) 06:30, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Third opinion

Hey. I see that there was a request for a third opinion, yet there's no discussion or anything here. What's the issue? — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 22:01, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
