The Coordinators keep the project pages on their watchlists, welcome new participants, maintain lists, keep the discussions tidy, on track, and on the right pages, and check for signatures and page links, and develop sub pages and templates as required, etc. — nothing much more than any experienced project member can do. Coordinators offer their own suggestions and opinions in the normal way.
The WikiProject Schools pages will help you to make excellent school articles. The project covers all articles about schools, school districts, and related articles such as school, as well as institutions that use college or academy as part of their name, but are actually primary or secondary schools. It also includes further education schools and sixth form colleges, and vocational and job schools that do not award recognised degrees in their own right.[1]
This project aims to improve the quality of school-related articles. Articles within the scope of this project should become far more substantial than stubs, and ultimately match the quality of featured articles.
By their nature, school articles are often targets for vandalism and promotional claims. Editors are asked to be as helpful as possible in removing irrelevant, inappropriate, or unsourced content.
Guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines demonstrate what school articles should contain, and provide a recommended common page structure. These guidelines offer advice that editors are encouraged to follow.
This is a list of recognized content, updated weekly by JL-Bot (talk·contribs) (typically on Saturdays). There is no need to edit the list yourself. If an article is missing from the list, make sure it is tagged (e.g. {{WikiProject Schools}}) or categorized correctly and wait for the next update. See WP:RECOG for configuration options.
This section notes school articles that can be recommended as a feature article. That is an article that is particularly well-written and complete. Please list an article that is close to this criteria so that everyone can edit away to bring it up to featured article quality and submit it for consideration as a featured article.
This section notes school articles that can be recommended as a good article. That is an article that is particularly well-written and complete but may lack the length or breadth to be a featured article. Please list an article that is close to this criteria so that everyone can edit away to bring it up to good article quality and submit it for consideration as a good article.
Potential good article candidates
Aquinas College, Perth – Demoted from GA on 30 January 2010. Some problems with unreferenced sections and dead links.
Bridgnorth Endowed School – A school article assessed as high importance which is now having its potential realised, requires some further work with structure.
Brisbane Boys' College – References need to be clean-up and some further expansion is required.
Institut Le Rosey – Much improved since last attempt at gaining good article status. Further pictures of the school could be helpful. Also see GA review and peer review.
Jamaica College – Some issues with article structure and images, plus more expansion needed.
King's School, Ely – See peer review and latest GA review: has some prose/organizational issues. History needs to be re-written in chronological order; many excellent sources are available for doing so.
Preuss School – Demoted from A-class on 25 February 2010. Issues with missing and dead references, need to improve the lead, and a lack of more recent information about the school.
Westfield High School (Fairfax County, Virginia) – Demoted from GA on 14 March 2010. Various areas of problems including reference gaps, image copyright concerns, and an excessive focus on controversy.
Before listing anything here, please attempt to address the issue(s) yourself
Please do not turn this list into a discussion thread. Coordination of work done/to be done should take place either at WT:WPSCH or on the article talk page
Articles in need of emergency, short term attention
St. Louis University High School highly promotional private school article. Currently encountering much resistance trying to remove non notables from the notable list, but the whole article is highly promo in a sometimes typical fro private school fashion.

Participants in this project are listed at Participants. If you wish to join our project and be of active help in maintaining the quality of Wikipedia school articles, please add your name to the list. If you wish, you can then also add the schools project userbox to your user page. This main page and the navbox on the right list some of the more urgent tasks; be sure to keep it on your watchlist.
Use templates to further spread recognition of this project and create more consistent messages. They are explained and illustrated on our templates page. There's also a small one you might like to add to your own user page.
Please be sure to use the correct infoboxes. Some English speaking countries have specific templates that provide parameters for the data points appropriate for their schools.
These infoboxes should not be placed on a page using subst:, as it decreases uniformity and makes automated checking more difficult.
Most schools use the generic {{Infobox school}}, designed to be placed on articles about primary and secondary schools of all kinds, public or private.
Generally, elementary/primary[a], middle[b], secondary, 6th form, FE and vocational schools in Commonwealth countries (United Kingdom and its former territories) that have the word College in their name are not universities, and should not use a university infobox. Check the ages allowed to enroll at a school to be sure that the guidance here applies.
Most school districts use the generic {{Infobox school district}}, as do other local administrative bodies responsible for providing education to minors. Some U.S. school districts have custom infoboxes, though; consult their documentation page if you encounter one.
Do not create new school infobox templates. If you feel something on an existing template should be improved, please start a discussion on that template's talk page. If you feel a new infobox template is needed altogether, please start a discussion on the WikiProject Schools talk page.
Footnotes:
^Elementary/primary and U.K. prep schools do not normally meet the notability requirements for their own Wikipedia article and will generally be merged by an experienced editor to their respective school district (in the U.S.) or locality page.
^Most junior high/middle (U.S.) and prep (U.K.) schools (or other lower secondary schools) do not meet the notability requirements for their own Wikipedia article and will generally be merged by an experienced editor to their respective school district (in the U.S.) or locality page.
^Recognised degrees are generally bachelor, master, and doctoral degrees. This project includes polytechnics and vocational colleges that do not award degrees or which are affiliated to universities who issue the degree on their behalf. Colleges, universities, and other organisations that are authorised to issue their own degrees are covered by WikiProject Higher education.
