One should also include more information on the teaching method and style... as well as mention to 'ARCT' level, which goes beyond their grades 1-10, and includes two branches, teaching and performing. The RCM is not just a place/building but also a distinction, of a strong musical background.-- Skugg 19:16, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
A google indicates, this might not be the only place on Earth with this name. Given the generic sounding name, it seems prudent to include the city name. Most links to article have already been fixed to point to "Royal Conservatory of Music (Toronto)". Now, if somebody really wishes to change it back, I will accept that *if* you also fix the re-dirs. I will ultimately fix the few remaining re-dirs, but I'll wait a bit, to see if it's moved back right away. -- rob 02:15, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

QUOTING the article: "The Royal Conservatory operates with five key divisions:"
This is followed by six points. Is it meant to be 5 or 6?

QUOTING THE ARTICLE: "The concert and recital halls of the College Street site were only partially replaced in the move, while the library, residence and all three pipe organs were lost."
How extraordinarily careless of them!
I think it would be a good idea to elaborate on what happened in this relocation.

QUOTING the article:
"RCM Examinations makes the high standards of the Royal Conservatory of Music curriculum available and accessible to students across North America through the RCM Examinations Certificate Program. It is a division of the Royal Conservatory of Music that is dedicated to administering the Certificate Program on the RCM curriculum. In this role it conducts examinations three times each year across Canada through a network of Examination Centres."
I have a few questions about this.
If the "curriculum" is available "across North America", why are the examinations only conducted "across Canada"?
In the sentence starting: "It is a division", to what does "It" refer?
Does "available" mean something significantly different from "accessible", or would one of these words suffice? Wanderer57 ( talk) 04:56, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was move based on alternate proposal. Mind matrix 17:48, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
Rename: Royal Conservatory of Music (Canada) → Royal Conservatory of Music (Toronto)
This page was renamed to its current title by Skeezix1000, on the basis that "[a]lthough located in Toronto, the school serves students across the entire country". That may be, but I don't think it's a sufficient reason to move it to this title. Every university serves students from across Canada, for example, and I don't think they should be disambiguated with the qualifier Canada. The location (city) of the conservatory should be the only qualifier for disambiguation. Mind matrix 17:11, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
Perhaps the solution here is to remove the disambiguation altogether. Disambiguation is only required where two or more articles would qualify for the exact same title -- here, the disambiguation page at Royal Conservatory of Music doesn't contain any other institutions with the same name, just entries that would normally be subject to removal from the DAB page as per WP:MOSDAB. Therefore, I propose Royal Conservatory of Music (Canada) → Royal Conservatory of Music, with Royal Conservatory of Music → Royal Conservatory of Music (disambiguation), with a hatnote placed at the top of this article linking to the DAB page. Skeezix1000 ( talk) 12:14, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
I've made some changes to the article to make it more neutral. I've also added some more references (The Encyclopedia of Music in Canada). Can someone let me know how I can have the article reviewed and the warning removed? I'll continue working on some of the suggested changes found in this discussion. M. White Morwennaj ( talk) 19:50, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
The image that was used in the infobox ( File:RoyalConservatoryofMusic.JPG) is now badly out-of-date, given the significant expansion of the RCM building on Bloor Street. For the time being, I have replaced it with a close-up image of the heritage building (which does not show the entire building, and thus is "timeless" in a sense). However, we really need to upload some new images of the RCM, from both Bloor Street and Philosopher's Walk, to the RCM category over at the Commons for use in this article. Any photographers in Toronto with some time? -- Skeezix1000 ( talk) 14:40, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
Per WP:COPYVIO I have just deleted large portions of this page, which appear to have been copied from http://www.rcmexaminations.org/ (See About Us and College of Examiners), and http://www.rcmusic.ca/ContentPage.aspx?name=RCM_History in violation of their copyrights. They may be restored if evidence can be provided that this was done with the copyright holders' permission. -- Rogerb67 ( talk) 04:55, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
I suggest a page rename and adding "The" so the page title becomes The Royal Conservatory of Music. This is how RCM has been known throughout its history and there is a "The" in its current emblem. Mjk17 ( talk) 18:43, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
Does anyone know why the images on this page are scheduled for deletion. They have been approved by the copyright holders who gave explicit permission for them to be uploaded onto Wikimedia Commons. Is there an extra piece of code that needs to be added to clartify the images' status? Mjk17 ( talk) 18:43, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
There used to be a comprehensive list of faculty members of the RCM , I would think this would be pertinent information. Who culled the list and what is your justification for removing the names of official faculty members ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rcmfaculty ( talk • contribs)
Hey there!
We're making some edits and hoping the NPOV dispute can be removed. Any tips on how to expedite this? Does an editor have to read it over and make the call? How does the NPOV Dispute tag get removed from the main article page?
Thanks!

I propose that Canadian Academy of Music be merged into The Royal Conservatory of Music. I think that the content in the Canadian Academy of Music article can easily be explained in the context of The Royal Conservatory of Music especially since the former was merged into the latter in 1924.
