and photos, links and archives, while stories of great significance in
Australia have virtually nothing. The talk page for "Cetacean Intelligence" has a note on "Old Tom" written my me, which gives a good example of this. The other good example is that we appear to be the only matriculants of NBHS who have done anything at all for documenting this school for posterity. (Of course, I hasten to add Aussie Legend has added the green Shortland house colour)

I might put something on the Talk page anyway. He will probably remove it, even if it is totally within the ambit of discussing how the page could be improved.

2. Do you have contacts with the old boys network? Perhaps they could send in some material. I have a few copies of the annual
Novocastrian, and I will post in the School Pledge. But I do not have a copy of the School Song. I noted in the Talk Page for NBHS that it is historically interesting because

3. Is there a proper link to the old boys group. I don't really know anyone there, but I think that the extant literature, OTIS, and the
Novocastrian mags should be scanned and put there. The material on Australian subjects is woeful in general. Every trivial American story is accorded pages of text

Geekboys who write this stuff.
307:
If a new page is deemed to be the better option, then one would only have to make a brief stub, with perhaps a black and white piccie of the school front and the crest, with a very general note on dates and so on, and then the old boys could chip in with stuff. It's not an enormous priority, but it

Greetings Giles, good effort on NBHS, and I've left a note on your

3. The link to the Old Boys on the Wiki page still works. I agree that it would be useful to collect material there, but there might be copyright problems. (Authors of individual articles would still own copyright in them, and it would be a large task to contact all and get permissions.)

But re: NBHS. All I have done recently is to insert a red rectangle next to Hannel House in the School Info box. Aussie Legend, who is running the show in that "neck of the woods" but with whom I have buried a hatchet, has added a green rectangle for
Shortland. He opines of the two which are
