Request For Discussion[edit]

Reputation[edit]

The "Reputation" section contains unverifiable puffery and self-promotion, in violation of Wikipedia standards. Numerous opinions are stated as fact. This page has been flagged accordingly. WP:SOURCE WP:PROMOTION Patrickc2006 (talk) 12:22, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Gbcollege: Please revise or remove the "Reputation" section to adhere to Wikipedia's core principles of verifiability WP:VER and neutral point of view WP:NPOV. Patrickc2006 (talk) 13:56, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Gbcollege: I intend on deleting the "Reputation" section because of its violation of Wikipeida's core principles. I would much prefer that you edit it yourself to bring it in line with Wikipedia standards. I would like to invite you to discuss the matter on this talk page. Patrickc2006 (talk) 14:28, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Gbcollege: I've asked twice that you please discuss this matter. I'm going to go ahead and make the change I've described above. If you revert without responding here, then I'm going to have to file a complaint against you at ANI for disruptive editing by reverting without discussing.— Patrickc2006 (talk) 08:56, 8 April 2018 (UTC).[reply]

Curriculum[edit]

@Gbcollege: The "Curriculum" section does not actually contain any information specifically relating to the program's curriculum. I would like to suggest that the heading be changed to "Enrollment and Graduation Rates". Please remove content in this article that is intrinsically unverifiable (e.g. "To maintain a high standard of excellence and professional progress, high expectations are placed on students").

I would like to recommend an edit of the first sentence: "The George Brown Theatre Department is a conservatory program, similar to a professional training programs at The National Ballet School or The Royal Conservatory of Music." Perhaps you could expand this to explain specifically how these programs are similar. Please remember that content in Wikipedia requires citation from reliable, published sources (WP:SOURCE). Currently only the "Abuse Allegations" section contains appropriate citations. I would like to invite you to discuss these proposed edits on this talk page.

Controversy (Removed)[edit]

I included a section providing a brief overview of long-standing abuse and harassment allegations at George Brown Theatre School. Within a couple of days, that section was deleted entirely by user Zonedthaws. I would like to invite this user to discuss the reasoning here for the deletion. In the meantime, I have restored that section along with minor edits. Offlabel noname (talk) 20:35, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Zonedthaws: - See above. Excirial ^{(Contact me,Contribs)} 20:47, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Gbcollege: - I noticed you removed the reference link to the Legacy of Trauma document. Can you provide justification?

@Excirial: - would you be able to weigh in on this issue? Offlabel noname (talk) 23:57, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have restored it for now. Offlabel noname (talk) 02:23, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notable alumnae[edit]

The list shows a very long list of people that no-one will read. I suggest that the names of people who don't have a Wikipedia article will be deleted. Any other ideas?

While we're at it, I think that the copy editing template could be removed; anyone else agree? TheSheepGuy (talk) 15:00, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We've listed graduates who've had success in the industry and work regularly in theatre, film and television.Gbcollege (talk) 17:41, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Abuse Allegations[edit]

@Ulyssesnorth: Fixed that for you. Patrickc2006 (talk) 14:40, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
