MGSPA[edit]

I think most of the introduction is the MGSPA's own complaining, i will rewrite to make it look a bit more neutral. AussieWiki2006 09:16, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unprotection Request[edit]

Some false information has been left on the site, eg Phil Jennings school, while true info has been deleted (intergalactic badminton team). The site should be open for improvement. Sintheg2 10:04, 27 May 2007 (UTC)User:Sintheg2[reply]

They were duelin', Doolin Dalton[edit]

Now that I have your attention, could a moderator please delete the protection sign. The school is only known as Phil Jennings School by some who knew Phil 'Floppa' Jennings. Also, the intergalactic badminton team is perhaps what the school is most known for, along with Shane Warne. Partially constructive posts by Crcar2 are being completely deleted.

Make your request at the unprotection page. Good luck. -- Mattinbgn/^talk 12:41, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed - as per Mattinbgn's suggestion - but perhaps even better for you at this stage - given your rather poor form edits recently and so that you can build up some trust in the Wikipedia community - you could indicate on the talk page of Mentone Grammar School what things should be changed and why, and provide proper references for each suggestion - then others will consider them and put them in as appropriate.--VS ^talk 13:15, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the support![edit]

As ridiculous as my recent edits may have seemed, many members of the community know that these are quasi factual and therefore i'd like the edits to remain so others can help in the 'cleaning up' by finding appropriate references. Now that my I.P. address has been unblocked... I invite all users, including the very king gentleman from the previous comment post, to rally together and tell the true story of the 'intergalactic badminton' team as well as the great coup of 2006.Crcar2 15:32, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to reason with the wikiadmin (I think that's a word), but they deleted my discussion comments and ignored my unprotection request, then I was put on probation. I reckon it should be a bit of a mix, in that we alumni put in some school history, maybe some stuff about foundation and Mr. Clark (the best headmaster ever) and Args and Cater (previous and current headmasters, respectively, for those who don't know). But in return, we should be able to put in a section about intergalatic badminton etc under a "Student Culture" heading. DoctorReiux 06:41, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair Enough[edit]

Good suggestions above DoctorReiux, however surely the 4 IBT members are among the most well known of any alumni and should therefore be in that section. A Student Culture heading would probably invite ridiculous statements in that section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.50.223.172 (talk) 06:15, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism[edit]

{{editsemiprotected}} This page is full of vandalism:

Mentone Grammar plays and trains for most of its sport at the Keysborough Playing Fields across from the Keysborough campus of Gaileybury

Alexandra Ross - Australian Pole dancing tour, Rank 4

Tyler wot Shorten - Established White Rapper

Jarrod Lumsden - Professional Consultant on Smoking techniques

I'd like to suggest it be deleted or redirected/merged with the Mentone Grammar article. The school is now officially called Mentone Grammar as opposed to Mentone Grammar School hence the new page.

I have adjusted the parts that appear to be vandalism and/or are unsupported by reference. You may suggest redirection but please do not just make that redirection as you did at Mentone Grammar.--VS ^talk 11:54, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the semi protected edit request; I believe that this has now been addressed; if you do wish to propose merger, follow instructions in WP:MERGE. Best, Chzz ► 22:07, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request from , 24 November 2011[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I believe there is a typographical error x 2 in the last sentence -

"The Cadte Unit is run by Vic Evens who organizes and prepares the camps and cadte activities."

Cadet is the correct spelling.

NThat sentence actually shouldn't be there per WP:WPSCH/AG#WNTI so I've removed it. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 07:46, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
