Bastardization Within Wiki Ranks

Why must the controlling mongrels that reside in their wiki-holes block people trying to make a website about a school. People can't say that you have absolutely nothing! After all, you have inferiority!

You started at the bottom - and it's been downhill ever since. If what you don't know can't hurt you, you must be practically invulnerable! You stupid, stupid pig.

Because you and your other anonymous friends are in an edit war. Stop trolling and solve the matter amongst yourselves. — Mar. 12, '06 [07:26] <freakofnur_xtureipblocklist talk>

Complaint

This page is very biased towards the so called 'SAC' whatever it is. It just looks like some cheap thing to get students power over teachers. Your kids for gods sake so just learn and be gone with it. In a few years time you will have the speach power but not now. I'm sorry if this is an adult who likes this 'SAC' but i dont like it

Like or dislike does not enter into the matter. A process was being asserted and followed. It was a current and relevant issue to the school and article. If you have a PoV complaint then list it as so and not just as *Oh! I don't like this*. This is an encyclopeadiea! If there is a PoV issue then correct the PoV and leave the information. --ISpyFace 15:22, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Updates?

This hasn't been updated since prior to 2007, some of the information is outdated (such as the section about it being a music school - it is no longer possible to get in just from music). sickmate 10:54, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Requested re-assessment

An interesting school which has a specialised gifted and talented programme and music programme. The school also incorporates the Graduate College of Dance, though the precise nature of the relationship between the school and the dance college is not clear (there are no dancers listed amongst the alumni). A short but impressive list of alumni including a former Australian PM and Rolf Harris. Not yet B class as there are no in-text references. The article focuses somewhat too much on future events and looks as though it is already out of date. Care should be taken to adopt a neutral point of view and to back up all claims with suitable references. Dahliarose 13:15, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Removal of some parts of History

The line:

"and allows for an enriched and compacted curriculum."

has been removed due to all government schools having the same curriculum. Especially since the implementation of the WACE. Perth modern is no exception. Thank you. Mod.torrentrealm (talk) 06:16, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Additionally,

Teachers at Perth Modern School have been selected on their ability to teach Gifted students, and many also have undergone further training in the principles of Gifted education.

was removed due to lack of a reference and potential biased information. see WP:NPOV. Mod.torrentrealm (talk) 06:24, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism

There has been a considerable amount of vandalism to this page in the last month, particularly changing the spelling of 'Sampson' in a potentially offensive, satirical way. This is not an Uncyclopedia article, and any such changes will be reverted on sight. If the vandalism persists, I will consider getting the page edit-locked. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.208.23.150 (talk) 08:11, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Dance School.

The dance school is being phased out, in 2012 there will be no more dance students at Perth Modern School. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Teh Wallaby (talk • contribs) 10:42, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Motto

G'day All,

Just commenting in regards to some recent edits regarding the motto. It is inconsistent against the other school articles to have an interpretation of the motto in the infobox. It would be much better in a section of its own in the body of the article. If anyone would like to add the new section, they're welcome. -danjel (talk to me) 05:24, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

00:50, 6 March 2007 (UTC) - good information, but needs inline citations (a must for a GA), more pictures and more detailed coverage. Well on the way, but B-class is as far as I'll go or recommend it at present.

I am a volunteer with the Perth Modern School Museum. We posted a digital honour board on the Wikipedia PMS page on 28 October 2020 and it was removed by Coolabahapple a few hours later. The original of the digital honour board is at honour.perthmodern.wa.gov.au . The 151 names on the honour board are of those former students who died as a result of their military service in times of conflict. We posted a copy on Wikipedia so that it is available to members of the wider community. The board is incomplete and encourages readers to contribute to it. Could you please advise us if the honour board is sufficiently notable to warrant an inclusion on Wikipedia. If it is, we would put it on a separate Wikipedia page rather than on the PMS page as it did unbalance the page, as pointed out by Coolabahapple.

Thanks very much for your assistance.
