How Ironic seeing how this school hates wikipidea with a passion. Great article on JUGs by the way. Very funny! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.71.212.169 (talk) 02:08, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hating Wikipedia. Agree. But it seems that until the school gets its act together with their website, this will have to do. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.191.28.237 (talk) 18:30, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please note to all editors: WP:NOT#high school website. In creating and expanding articles, only encyclopedic information of interest to the greater world should be included.

No no no. Loyola loves Wikipedia. Especially now that all its students have iPads. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.176.62.183 (talk) 02:04, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Updated Template[edit]

I've updated the Infobox_Education_in_Canada template, so I had to retrofit the older information from this article into the new template format. If someone can verify the accuracy of the information, it would be greatly appreciated. --Stephane Charette 13:13, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Loyala ca small crest.gif[edit]

Image:Loyala ca small crest.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This edit added a section on a pedophile priest who taught at Loyola. After trimming opinions and unsourced material such as the vague "During that time [at Loyola] he abused at least one student." [1] we're left with an unsourced statement that the priest in question taught at Loyola 15 years before the documented abuses. Without a source to show that the priest taught at Loyola this entire section should be deleted, with a source to show that sexual abuses occurred at Loyola the section should stay, but what if his teaching at the school can be documented but not any abuses while he was teaching there? I don't think that's enough to justify including this section at all, since the insinuation would still be that abuses also occurred at Loyola. Meters (talk) 19:16, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Even the title of the section is questionable. There was an unsourced claim of abuse by one priest at Loyola, but no mention of other priests. Meters (talk) 19:33, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No response here or on the editor's talk page, so I'm removing the section. Meters (talk) 21:40, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Section reappeared on June 21, 2017. I removed it as there is no reference or mention of the individual's association with Loyola High School in the citation. Trapper (talk) 02:37, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

NOTE: It should be noted that the aforementioned priest was not the only abuser at Loyola Montreal. I was molested by Fr. Smeaton SJ, along with 2 other boys that I knew of in early 1960. He had an RCAF club that was situated above the old ice arena on the HS campus. I am ashamed to this day so many years later. contact me h92546@yahoo.com. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.146.107.14 (talk) 00:54, 29 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Alumni[edit]

Notable alumni need to have reliable, independent sources showing their notability and attendance at the school. Normally notability is shown bythe alumnus having wikiarticle.

An IP removed Anthony Mancini without an edit summary [2]. He's notable but his article does not mention Loyola. When he was restored, I removed him again, and since I assumed the original removal was been because his attendance was unsourced, I specifically requested a source before he could be restored [3]. After a few more go-arounds on Mancini and other alumni the article is protected.

If an alumnus does not have an article then WP:WRITETHEARTICLEFIRST before adding the alumnus to this article. If the alumnus's article does not have a reliable source showing attendance at Loyola, then it will have to be sourced in the alumni list. Meters (talk) 03:34, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
