I thought malibu high was established in 1992. Sam 05:16, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
The MHS info box contains valid information (assistant principals, accreditation, national rank, etc.) and should be kept as is. There is no reason to delete the contributions. I checked other high school pages on Wikipedia and they also have the same info! Marshmallow00 23:08, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
I also checked many respected high schools on wiki, especially those in California of a similar academic caliber, demographic or socio-economic background. Rarely were asst principals listed. A new high school or private school needs accreditation, especially when it is trying to achieve a state designation, such as "Distinguished School." MHS has been an accredited school for several years. The California Distinguished School designation is an honor that requires accreditation. Since CDS is noted in the body of text, the reference to MHS's accreditation is superfluous. Sonial1t6 22:28, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
The etymology of the name Malibu is already mentioned in the City of Malibu article. Malibu High School is obviously named after its location...
And mentioning Colin McEwen High School isn't really necessary. Neither is the location of MHS since it's already in the infobox. Marshmallow00 23:07, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
Not everyone will click on Malibu, California to read the derivation of the name.
Colin McEwen High School should be noted as the only other secondary school, albeit private, in Malibu, as it is not mentioned elsewhere in wikipedia. The location is necessary in the text as the info box does not show it. Additionally, the info box appears more elegant & less cluttered by leaving out the specific address. Sonial1t6 01:42, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia is not about "elegance". The address is just information. You can make the same argument for all the other info in the info box. Marshmallow00 02:01, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Instead of adding your miniscule tidbits, how about adding substantive info? Sonial1t6 00:58, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Well, might as well delete the entire infobox to avoid being "repetitive". (Sarcasm).

...Obviously everyone else is too "repetitive". (Sarcasm again). If you haven't noticed, info. is listed in an info. box for convenience. Whether or not it is already mentioned in the article is irrelevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marshmallow00 ( talk • contribs) 23:20, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Odd that you used wiki BHS as an example, as its infobox more closely resembles my version than yours. Also, Harvard-Westlake doesn't include its street address either, which you think important. Are you able to contribute in a meaningful, pithy way? You piddle with nugatory matters like superscript, adding superfluous info like assistant principals & the street address in the infobox. Sonial1t6 14:41, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
The majority of reputable high schools (e.g.
[5] ,
[6],
[7], etc.) use their street address. Why are you so hell-bent on creating the MHS article your way? How are you associated with the school anyways (administrator, student, etc...)?

Your choice of three private schools, Oaks Christian, Crespi, & Dwight, are puzzling. Private schools NEED the advertising to expand enrollment, so of course they include their street addresses. A review of comparable Southern California public high schools (including but not limited to
[8],
[9],
[10]) indicates that street addresses are not commonly included in the infobox.

Oh please, do you REALLY think parents find private schools on Wikipedia and that private schools "advertise" through Wiki? Marshmallow00 22:29, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Under "campus life" the article says: "Unlike its sister school Santa Monica High, MHS experiences little if any unrest. Its last student fight occurred in 2004, when two boys were in a personal, physical dispute..."
This is irrelevant information (the specific fight in 2004). The last brawl actually occurred in 2007, not 2004 anyways.
There were fights prior to 2007. It's also not relevant period.
There was a duel between two boys in the new gymnasium in June of 2007 during a P.E. class. An MHS student I know viewed the fight. Obviously, info. about fights cannot be cited and confirmed and is therefore irrelevant to the article. Marshmallow00 00:42, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Under "pubications": "A yearbook class also publishes the high school yearbook, Aquarius, named so because of the zodiac sign's association with water (in reference to Malibu as a "water" or beach community). The PTSA also publishes the MHS Directory (students, parents, and faculty), the MHS Guide, and the middle school yearbook."
There are no citations for the information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marshmallow00 ( talk • contribs) 22:26, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
I got this info about the Aquarius yearbook from you, so I don't know if it's valid. Where do you get all the "insider info" for this article from? Marshmallow00 00:42, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Sonial1t6 00:56, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
I have a few problems with this article.
1. Point of view. At various points, it is clear that someone is advancing their point of view, as in the Schedule section ("The school follows the antediluvian daily 6-period schedule, with a shortened day for students once a week ostensibly to enable the faculty...") (emphasis added) and ("The current schedule has proven marginally workable) (emphasis added). Ostensibly to enable the faculty? You mean they don't use this time?
2. Unproven statements, such as the last paragraph under the Schedule section ("Annual calls by educators teaching Advanced Placement courses..."). Where is the proof that educators at MHS educators annually call for this?
3. Incorrect "facts." It was not the Class of 2003 who put the Volkswagen Bug in the flagpole, but the Class of 2001. Additionally, the shark fins in the grass had absolutely nothing to do with the prank. They were installed with funds provided by the middle school ASB at a separate time.
