The reference cited in the article (this page) clearly states that the current principal of the school is Pauline Barker, not Ryan Shields as you've been repeatedly modifying the article to state. If what you're changing is true, please provide a reference to support this and add it to an edit request on the article's talk page here. Thanks! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 08:25, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Oshwah: Same information in the catalogue of schools in the Victoria State Education Department:

Hey this is the same user but with an account made. I posted a message on your chat page with a full run down of the situation so I will not go into it again here, please check that out if you have the time.

Thank you very much for the heads up about the principals name on the website, we will work on having that removed as soon as we can get into contact with the website technicians (likely a week or less). I now understand why you were hesitant to accept the correct name, but please understand this is very important to us. Removing all connections with the name it currently is is a priority at the moment (see my talk post for a slight explanation) as we are closing in on the beginning of campaigns to bring new students to the school, our reputation is very important at the moment so having this resolved quickly would be very ideal. We would not like our school to be associated with the name Pauline Barker.

As for source, would submitting a signed letter from the principal of the school be an acceptable source? We are hoping the minor detail on the website will be fixed quickly but we are not sure of the time this will happen, and as I previously stated, this is something that is important for us to get out of the way as soon as possible, as the public opinion of the ‘principal’ as it is stated on the page right now is far from positive and will likely affect our ability to draw new students in to the school.

I could likely submit a signed letter by midday tomorrow (15-16 hours from now in case of different time zones), but I would first like to know if this will be acceptable. If not, is there any other source we could provide to prove the principals name before the website is fixed?

You can check the edit history and see that the changes went from Chrissy Collins to Ryan Shields months ago, and it mostly stayed that way up until fairly recently, when the trolls began. Hopefully that gives a good indication that Pauline Barker is not and has not been the principle of our college for any significant amount of time, and has only been added as a joke by students (see my chat post for more details).

Thanks for your help, hopefully this can be fixed soon.
