A couple of editors it seems have been including an unsourced name in a 'notable alumni' section to this article. Despite my attempts to establish notability I cannot find ANY sources on google who even mention who this person is. In order that we can establish notability we must provide a source? Could any of these editors provide a source? Otherwise I shall ask for a wikipedia 3rd opinion on this? Bleaney ( talk) 18:06, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
Should the 'wikipedia third opinion' not be somehow independent and/or impartial - it appears that you are familiar with Tagishsimon, tarnishing their capacity to adjudicate. Acting in this way makes Wikipedia look like somewhat of a ‘boys club’, whereby certain editors, due to personal relationships and agreement’s, gang up on others to enforce their particular version of Wikipedia:
I've put St Thomas More Catholic Upper School in my watchlist; I'll revert should I get the opportunity, but you seem to be taking the honours right now. --Tagishsimon (talk) 23:41, 7 February 2010 (UTC) get somebody else involved so you don't inadvertently find yourself in an edit war. If the contributor continues editing in defiance of consensus, then you're dealing with disruption, and it should be handled accordingly Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:52, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
To gang up on and bully into submission a fellow wikipedian is hardly an honourable exercise, in fact I would go so far as to say that such acts are shameful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.234.252.67 ( talk) 12:20, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
May I suggest that the editors, Tagishsimon, Moonriddengirl and Bleaney refer to the examples given from Cambridge University, which appear to still contain alumni without ‘adequate references’, or am I misunderstanding how it is that the 'number of people' watching this 'page in question' are demonstrating their 'respect for wikipedia guidelines'. Again, to suggest that this is a vague attempt to somehow 'winning [sic] your point merely by repeatedly adding the information' is to suggest some ulterior underhand motive, rather than merely adding information to the page in much the same way that the three editors have done elsewhere. It would appear that it is Bleaney who has taken it upon themselves to instigate an ‘edit war’, I would argue intentionally, now portraying others as the aggressors – perhaps a disruption is being forced by other hands?
To suggest that the ‘net’ or Google is a definitive and final source of information is short sighted and to the detriment of your beloved suppository of knowledge and information – how do you suggest I cite and adequately reference local history? History stored in Bedford library.
