the country). And that's just the official schools; then there are cram schools, training schools, minor colleges, hairdressing schools, dog grooming schools... Should I add them all too? And I ask this not to be sarcastic but because this is already what's beginning to happen (see VfD for the latest one).

Is there a general consensus about whether we should go about listing out every single achievement and award won by the school? This has been a problem among quite a few Singapore schools, where opinions differ (quite greatly I might add) about whether those things should be included wholly or simply

it is NOT located at BEDOK but it is located at 600 upper east coast rd. 4 actresses have comed from this school. they are: Wong Li Lin, Joanna Peh, Fann Wong, Ivy Fann Wong has acted in hollywood with Jacky Chan and Owen Wilson in Shang Hai Nights. The name TEMASEK was formerly Singapore's name.

The article's tone is inappropriate at some parts (written promotionally), there are grammatical errors here and there and there are errors in Wiki markup. Also, some sections are simply listing information without any sources or elaboration, especially the amenities and achievements section (which

A "rough" consensus. I think there's room for interpretation there, particularly given that it's already been decided that schools are not Knowledge material in and of themselves. The city I live in contains hundreds of elementary, junior high and high schools, the prefecture thousands (let alone
411:
I am not comparing to any school in Singapore but rather schools in general. Most school articles that (at least to me) are of higher quality do not list achievements. Instead, they simply have a few paragraphs about them. For amenities, some schools with notable campuses may have a section on it,
361:
It is completely untrue to say that "it's already been decided that schools are not Knowledge material in and of themselves". There is no reason not to have articles on schools simply because they are schools. If you want to write articles about schools, yes, feel free to do so. I think there are
737:); it will get summarised into prose eventually, so there. I'll leave them there for now so that it'll be easier to summarise them into prose whenever someone finds time to do so. As for your question, I happen to be from lower secondary, but this is really not the place to talk about this. 732:
My point exactly. It is really not up to the school how they want their wiki article to look like; that is something they can do on their own website. I also feel that my removal of the entire awards, achievements and amenities sections was not in error of any policy (even if it was,
431:) but rather summarise then and perhaps highlight some important/prestigious CCAs/awards/achievement. As for amenities, I reiterate my point above; TMS (from my experience) does not have a notable campus and I do not feel it is worth including as its own section (again, 632:
After pruning, turn any long bulleted lists left in to {{flatlist}} or prose. reduce all the long lists preceded by a year sub heading in to just a brief description that the school has won many awards for... including gold and silver medals, etc.
465:
I also have a particular problem with the President's Challenge section, also; we don't provide details regarding where students hold their formals, what stunts happened on the last day of term or what fundraising activities happened during the year. It's trivial.

but (being a student of this school) I do not feel that our campus warrants its own section. Perhaps a subsection. As for removing the History/Achievements/etc, I will undo those edits and tag them appropriately. My apologies.
31: 426:
After a little.. looking around, I do notice that opinions differ quite a lot on whether there should be lists of achievements, CCAs and awards. My PoV is that we should not list every single achievement, CCA or award
435:). However, again, opinions differ about this, especially for schools/Singapore schools, and I feel a general agreement should be reached about this so there can be some consistency among the articles. 271: 393:
should simply be summarised, why are we listing every single award won by this school?). It may be useful to refer to how other articles about schools in Singapore are written, such as
