Edit question
I posted a notable alumni on the Waukesha South High School page and you removed it. Matt Morris is the founder of a cowbell enthusiast pep band that plays at high school baskeball games in Waukesha. It seems culturally relative to this school that he is listed as a notable alum.
Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.144.36.132 (talk • contribs)

Re: Waukesha and the pep band. I am uncomfortable by your assumption of what you define as "notable" and by the mere statement that you can define what is notable for a particular institution or for its student culture. Obviously, a pep band notation is not inappropriate--by common application of decency standards--but it very well could be notable for people who have gone to and graduated from this particular high school. The core to telling a true democratic history, one of the people and for the people--a story that Wikipedia catalogues so wonderfully, is that people should be able capture what is "notable" for them in a particular setting. So please cast a wider net. Please do not reserve notable for only people who may be wider known--as a historian I feel that there are many individuals who I consider notable but would be saddened to find that not many others would have ever heard of them. For instance, being both Jewish and a historian, I feel that the story of the Dreyfus affair is very important. Yet it saddens me that many choose to edit if from course outlines on the basis that is not a commonly known story beyond my community. Please allow for the school and its community to decide what story it wants to report as I will venture that you do not know what is important in that particular school's story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.144.36.132 (talk • contribs)
Thanks
Yonatanh,
Thank you for reverting the revision to the article on Left Handed(ness), subsection "possible effects on thought in humans." As that information comes from extensive research--some dating back to the work of Roger Sperry in the 1960s--I don't feel it's right to have an individual who:
1.) can type: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:128.227.131.101
2.) is anonymous
come in and discard paragraphs of material that have been peer reviewed for a year.
Thank you again for your vigilance,
