Revamping

Seems like it's been a while since this page has been touched. I'm working on a layout for this page, and I expect to have it done soon.--Bsdlogical 21:21, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Cool. There has been quite a bit of deletion of non-notable high schools. I think that because this page hasn't been touched much, it has survived. Hopefully you can include a lot more information about it showing its notability. I didn't go to Manual, but like the majority of former high school kids from Kentucky, I recognize that it's arguably the best magnet school in Kentucky. Since you are a relatively new user, I would urge you to consider other high school webpages. For instance, Dr. Michael M. Krop High School is way over the top (see my comments at Talk:Dr. Michael M. Krop High School). Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology is an example of, in my opinion, a good article that isn't too verbose about a very notable high school. Good luck, and welcome to Wikipedia. CryptoDerk 22:03, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
Alright. I actually am a freshman at Manual currently, and just from these few months I know there is plenty of information to add here. The Dr. Michael M. Krop page has given me lots of ideas, and I'll be able to do a news hunt for notable awards, etc. Otherwise, I'll pull the numbers, staff names, and other statistics from the site itself. Thanks for the welcome, I've already used Wikipedia quite a bit for my personal research, and have figured it's time to give back and contribute :)--Bsdlogical 00:58, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Re-did history

The old history was confusing. After poring through different references that seemed to contradict each other, I think I have the correct timeline down. Please double-check though, as I'm sure there may be some years that aren't in agreement with other articles. However, those are the years stated on the DuPont Manual website.

Capitalization issues

I know that duPont Manual doesn't like to capitalize the 'd', but you always capitalize the first letter of a sentence. On Manual's web site, they don't, which is sort-of cute, but in all serious news sources the 'd' is capitalized when it starts a sentence. [1] In the middle of a sentence, it's fine to leave it lower-cased. – Quadell (talk) (help)[[]] 19:20, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)
