I've edited the article to remove some information. The personal relationships between staff at the school may be interesting to the people who go there, but it's not encyclopedic. Similarly, the entire trivia section is both unencyclopedic and unverifiable. Wikipedia is [[WP:NOT|not an indiscriminate collector of information]], and should only contain information that belongs in an encyclopedia. The list of staff at the school is perhaps borderline, but their personal relationships and personality quirks are definitely outside the scope of this encyclopedia. Feel free to add it to some external web page and link to that from here. [[User:Fagstein|Fagstein]] 19:27, 21 March 2006 (UTC) |

There are some articles at Wikipedia that actually contain a section called Trivia. I don't see anything wrong with it. I didn't say anything bad. ([[Special:Contributions/oahc|Oahc]]) |

Oahc, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a personal web page — please read what Wikipedia is not. Then look at the kind of information in our featured articles, and the style used.
Please stop putting back stuff you yourself has described as unnecessary. -- Jeandré, 2006-03-20t19:18z
I did not write bad stuff about the Village School in my Trivia. There are some articles at Wikipedia that have a section called Trivia. I still don't see what is wrong with it. (Oahc)
