"a Catholic secondary school for boys"

Latest comment: 9 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

When British people write articles about British people do they ever say "a Protestant secondary school for boys"? I've never once seen it on Wikipedia. Revealingly, however, they point out religion when it's Catholic. Can people be more aware to their own prejudices, please? Thank you. 188.141.10.11 (talk) 10:13, 20 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

The Blackrock College page starts off "Blackrock College (Irish: Coláiste na Carraige Duibhe) is a fee-paying Catholic secondary school for boys aged 13–18, located in Williamstown, Blackrock, County Dublin, Ireland." so I guess your issue is with that page rather than this one, which has simply copied the middle of the sentence, albeit leaving out the fee-paying bit.

But I take your point. A Catholic school in the republic is hardly surprising or noteworthy so I'll remove it here. Nigej (talk) 10:38, 20 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
