Correct me if I am wrong, but an alumnus, is a graduate? Not someone that attended for however long, or had to drop out because.. but only someone that graduated from the institution is an alumni? Why are the Spears sisters listed in the notable ALUMNI section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.171.228.142 (talk) 14:13, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
Lynne Spears didn't graduate from Parklane. She graduated from St. Mary of the Pines in Chatawa, Ms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.234.103.107 (talk) 01:33, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

Christianity is not a religion? Huh?
Parklane was was noted in the infobox as a Christian school -- as indicated by its motto. An editor changed it to Protestant. Then the entry was deleted altogether with the note that the field is reserved only for denomination.
It strikes me that this is an exercise in hair-splitting, to what end I don't understand. I understand that it would be ambiguous to say that the religion is Abrahamic. In that case, the reader wouldn't know if the faith were Christian, Muslim, or Judaism. Beyond that, the exercise devolves into pendantry. The Georgetown University article describes the university as Catholic (Jesuit). Of the branches of Christianity, the are two more: Orthodox and Protestant. If Parklane is not Orthodox or Catholic, then it seems reasonable to call it Protestant. There is no publicly available data that says Episcopal or Methodist or Baptist or whatever.
Denomination is defined as having a name, organisation, leadership and doctrine. In Judaism, there is no organization or leadership above the congregation level, so how do we justify classifying Mesivta Zichron Baruch as Orthodox Jewish?
John from Idegon, Kurt20008, what is the common standard by which we apply religion labels across the range of religions? Rhadow (talk) 21:19, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
Kurt20008 (talk) 14:11, 27 November 2018 (UTC)It seems good editing would suggest we use the more descriptive term. I.e. we should not write "Paris, Lyon and Nice are cities in Europe" but "Paris, Lyon and Nice are cities in France."
