This page is very poorly-written, and has all sorts of biased and opinionated information, much of which simply does not belong in this article. The article is not about basketball, nor is it about how the Baldwin Gymnasium is "one of the better places to play in the state of Illinois." I'm sure there are a fair number of people who would agree that this article needs work, and should probably be protected due to the sheer amount of poor formatting, poor word choice, and poor grammar that has been introduced by members of the Quincy community. You have turned the page into a gloating advertisement. I'm considering rewriting the whole page myself. Steven Hidy (talk) 05:10, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone please improve of this, this article sucks, it needs more research which I will due at a later time. Till then someone please put a picture, fill-in details, or our sports program on the page.

I know quite a bit about the basketball aspect of the school... a little less about the history, although I may be able to come up with something later. I guessed 1906 as the year it was established, because 1910 is the first year listed on the alumni website, plus, there are basketball records dating back to 1907. Hopefully somebody knows the actual year it was established. Alharrison 09:07, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just read in a Carl Landrum book that the senior high program in Quincy started in 1864. Alharrison 21:30, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment as of March 2007[edit]

Hello all, and thank you for contributing to this school site. I'm part of the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools/Assessment team, and I'm reviewing this page. I'm currently giving it a grade of Start on the Wikipedia 1.0 Assessment Scale and an importance of Low on this importance scale.

My reasoning is as follows: Somewhat eclectic and not well-referenced information. Needs to be formalized and wikified. Also some information is only of local interest Adam McCormick 05:24, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Music[edit]

I removed 'not to mention many of the most talented musicians in the Tri-State Region.' because, no matter how true it might be, it was not cited and is POV. omnijohn 23:53, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sports[edit]

We have a lot of sports here, not just basketball. Basketball is the only sport we win, but still we should mention that we do take part in other sports. jt_200075 16:07, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note to all editors of this particular page !!![edit]

If you do not know, an upcoming basketball game is going to be held on January 5, 2008 against the rival school Quincy Notre Dame High School. I just want to notify anyone who edits this page that there may be a huge amount of vandalism on both school pages as the game approaches. I propose that both pages of QHS and QND be semi-protected until at least January 10, 2008. (Tigerghost (talk) 04:25, 21 December 2007 (UTC))[reply]
