Logo

DLand- how do i add the YDH High school logo?

As it stands now, the article is about the institution as a whole. As such, it makes sense to only have the current general logo. If a new article is created about the high school (which I'm not sure merits its own article yet) then the high school logo would become appropriate. --DLand ^TALK 22:59, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Ydhlogo.JPG

Image:Ydhlogo.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Semi-protected edit request on 6 October 2016

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

| native_name = ישיבה דרך טפשות Please remove this hebrew name and change to read ישיבה דרך התורה. because the way it reads now translates to Yeshiva Derech Stupidity

| type = Privately owned by Jake Abilevitz Please remove and change to read: "Jewish Modern Orthodox Yeshiva". We are a Not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) entity, not privately owned by anyone.

| principal = Rabbi Michael Chanales Please remove Michael and insert Elimelech because Rabbi Chanales prefers to use his Hebrew name.

| enrollment = 227 Please change 227 to 265 because that is our current enrollment as of 9/1/16

| nickname = Drek Torah Please delete because we do not have a school nickname. The word "drek" is a vulgar Yiddish word loosely translated as Garbage.

The nursery program was discontinued in 2015. As of the 2015-16 school year, the school had an enrollment of 227 students in kindergarten through twelfth grades according to the New York State Department of Education.^[1] As of the 2015-2016 school year, the high school was converted to a "one room school house" model for the 32 remaining students. At the end of the 2015-2016 school year, a letter was sent out that there would not be a 9th grade for the 2016-2017 school year.

Please delete the above paragraph in its entirety. It is outdated information and meant to be construed as demeaning in parts.

Leadership

The current principal of Yeshiva Derech HaTorah Elementary School and High School is Rabbi Michael Chanales. Please remove Michael and insert Elimelech because Rabbi Chanales prefers to use his Hebrew name.

The high school literary magazine Epiphany began publication in 2009 under the guidance of faculty advisor and chair of the English Department Carol Hagler. In 2012 the literary magazine was renamed The Write Stuff. Please delete in its entirety. The High School literary magazine has not published in three years, Carol Hagler was an English teacher and was never "chair" of the English department. Mrs. Hagler has not been with our school for three years. Jjw613 (talk) 19:18, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
