Untitled[edit]

just a note: of the 60 people mentioned on the article's page, 7 are women - hardly an egalitarian school. It should also be noted for the authors of the Rupert Murdoch article that make sound as if he is a "self-made" man, he - like Bill Gates - started out with substantial sums of money and connections your average college graduate can only fantasize about. With the exceptions of George Bush (Jr. & Sr.), Franklin Roosevelt and William Averell Harriman, as U.S. inhabitants of the 20th century. Winston Churchill (I'm sure there are other Brits) and Rupert Murdoch would be two others. Stevenmitchell 11:42, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you had any idea of the school, you would realise it was a boys school until the 1970's when it amalgamated with two girls schools.138.217.97.113 04:22, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bill Manifold (OGG) was an author whose books often denied the holocaust or expressed anti-semitic views.

Inclusion in list[edit]

Should we be including people not notable enough to warrant their own Wikipedia page? I note the hidden text at the top of the page, but I feel a simple external link should not suffice. Cavalryman V31 (talk) 03:12, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Cavalryman V31, the presence or absence of an article in Wikipedia does not signify (or determine) the notability of the subject. This is a matter of simple commonsense: If a notable individual (as per WP:BIO) does NOT have a Wikipedia page (or has a red link), then simply just create the relevant Wikipedia page.
