I am a student at St. Francis High School and I can tell you that we have dumped the "de Sales" in the late 1970's. We formally go by St. Francis of Assisi now. User:lakersnbulls91
Lengthy biographies of the school's teachers is not of encyclopedic value. this is an encyclopedia, not a website for the school. please do not re-add this stuff. -- ZimZalaBim ( talk) 04:21, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
I am ordering a cease and desist of vandalizing this page and taking out information. There is nothing wrong with having a page with information, this IS Wikipedia after all and should provide us some information. There are plenty of other pages with "useless" information such as; The Green Bay Packers page, Chicago Bulls Page, Parker Brothers page, Finding Nemo page, etc. If you'd like to not to have teacher bios then please get rid of all useless info on other pages as well. If you do not wish to cooperate than just erase this WHOLE SFHS page then you already vandalized this more than once and myself and several other users have fixed it and then someone just erased it again pleas don't.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Bluemagewadabou ( talk • contribs)
If you would like to talk about policies then please by all means look at what wikipedia is not. Read the part about user pages and then please change your user page to the appropriate settings before talking to us about breaking the rules. Your pages also have uneccessary comments and information it must be altered. User:bluemagewadabou 14:16, 4 December 2006
As I've said before, the school is not encyclopedia-worthy. It has less than a thousand members. It's had a history of athletic excellence in what is essentially the high school equivalent of the little league (except for all sports). It has no notable alumni. It was not involved in any historic or significant event. Less than a handful of the teacher's have PHD's in their field. The closest thing I can think of to make it noteworthy is that it was probably the first Catholic high school to have a lesbian love triangle betwixt a gym teacher, a religion teacher and the principal. As is to be expected, however, they don't have that on their official site, and I doubt the Daily Herald or the Chicago Tribune carried any info about it. So you can't source it.
If you really insist on keeping the page, here's a hint: USE THE FRIGGIN' SOURCES. The official website has much of the information already on the Wiki page. I imagine the IHSA has a website--look for it and use it for the sports information. The part about this so called "Life at St. Francis" animation needs to go. If you want it on here, ask its creators to put it up online so it can be sourced. I myself would like to see it, I'm interested in what the current classes think of my teachers (the ones that are still there, anyway). Until it's put online though, it can't be put in this article.

Ok fine geez you win, you administrators are such bullies and hypocrites, fine i'll get rid of the whole page. You know i'll even help, i'll delete all unneccessary info on this page whenever it pops up. If you don't want to be a contributor and rather just delete things then don't have an account on the site, becouse your supposed to help make the site and articles better not worse. There, I took care off all the "useless" things. Are you happy now, I was just trying to help, Oh and by the way all our friggin things ARE noteworthy and true info. User:bluemagewadabou 20:31, 4 December 2006
I established this page, and now I believe to delete it because you people keep messing with it and now no one can tell what is fact and what is fiction. Now I love wikipedia, I've been using it for years and I don't want to see it go down or become ruined because people keep on breaking up pages, if you'd just leave it alone, we'd all be fine ok? And I know everything cannot be put on a site, but then how come so many other people get away with it? Focus all other bigger problems before it's too late, why does evryone persist on ruining THIS page? User:bluemagewadabou 20:52, 4 December 2006
Hey bluemagewadabou! What grade are you in? Because I'd like to help you remake the page to be a bit more like an encyclopedia. I understand what they're saying, but i think they're blowing this WAY out of proportion. We can touch up on the sports and notable accomplishments. By the way I go to SFHS!!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.13.56.97 ( talk • contribs)
Well um, that's very nice to offer; we would like all the help we could get. I guess we are going to have to start from scratch, that is if "they" let us even put anything on ok?
Geez. I think everybody should just calm down a bit. I am also a student at St. Francis, and although I enjoyed the teacher bio's, etc. (especially the funny Mr. Page and Richter caricatures) when they were up, I guess I (reluctantly) concede they would fit better on a blog or something rather than an encyclopedia. I really think this page has a lot of potential, especially when it comes to showcasing the many accomplishments of the school's sport and other extra-curricular teams, as well as the great academic opportunities (like the many AP classes) that are available. I also think it would be kind of cool and interesting if someone who knows about the school's controversies (like the staff love scandal) could add it under a trivia section or something. I think all who know or like this school should make it a goal to rival this school's webpage. To admins and other seasoned users, although it's policy, I don't think it's realistic to find many sources, especially reliable ones, about the school other than the SFHS web pg. itself, which of course would be biased in favor of the school (although you're encouraged to prove me wrong and find some!). Although I may get shot down for this, you'll just have to trust we know what we're talking about, and that if someone adds lies or other misleading facts, it will be fixed by someone who knows the school. Oh, and Bluemagewadabou, I understand your frustration, but please, have patience, and don't do something that would get yourself blocked. You seem to know a lot about the school, and future contributions from you would be appreciated. And aviper2k7, I'd like to see some proof (a reference perhaps :-)) that you're really part owner of the Packers. That's quite a claim to make. Anyway, everybody take a breather and relax for a bit, before ZimZalaBim comes back from his wikibreak and goes back on the rampage (just kidding!) Thanks and have a good day/night!!- 67.167.93.51 03:42, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Ok dude, if we (me, bluemagewadabou, alex and co,) put "Life at SFHS" on the the web, will you get off our backs and let us post a page about it with pics? or is that too "unimportant" for you?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.166.49.31 ( talk • contribs)
Listen, StrongBad and other flash animations on the web are mentioned on this site and no one questions if they should be on this site. So why can't our poorly animated show be on this show? Name one good reason why they could and us not? User:bluemagewadabou 19:56, 8 December 2006
But what if I DID put it on the web, then millions of people would watch it, huh what do you say to that punk? User:bluemagewadabou 10:53, 10 December 2006

What is that? What the #$@%$# is that supposed to be? Geez, why havent you answered the question. Anyway, I believe it may not be that good of a idea to put SFHS cartoon online. The cartoon is simply too amaetuer and poorly done to show to the world. Besides, we only completed 3 four minute episodes. Maybe when we accomplished more....but......work is veeerrrry sssllloooowww! [unknown user] 20:02, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
P.S....maybe I should become the "greenmagewadabou" huh? ^_^
I'm a student at St. Francis, and I think it's fine to have an article up considering that there are many unnecessary articles on Wikipedia. However, I'm extremely angered by what some my fellow students have put on this page. I hope to edit this to show what St. Francis offers to its students. In fact, we have won many Varsity Girl's Volleyball in our state in both Single-A and Double-A (the only to do so). I think that this does deserve more recognition on the page as well.
I have made many attempts to make this page very insightful towards the SFHS life style. I myself did not start this page, however being one of the first people to actually do anything with this page, i believe i have some sort of say in on this page, perhaps the SFHS student editors and administrator/moderaters can make some sort of compromise for i don't believe that we should quarell over one page. I myself as an editor am willing to make some changes such as taking the pleasant, yet maybe unneccessary, pictures from the page. So please, we very much would like the administrator/moderaters to just here us out and just compromise.
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
St. Francis High School (Wheaton, Illinois). Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
