Reigate St Mary's School
- ...
that Reigate St Mary's (pictured) is one of the few English choir schools not linked to a cathedral or college?
Sources: (1) Independent Schools Yearbook 2012–2013 (A. & C. Black, 2013), p. 1054; (2) School and Cathedral list at choirschools.org.uk

- First, article is at AfD, so this needs to be held until that's decided. Second, I'd object to this anyway. A directory listing is in no way a sufficient source for a claim of uniqueness. It isn't in any sense a reliable independent source. If we are going to discuss a subject on the front page, we are certainly not going to just parrot what they've said about themselves.

- Template:U, I agree that this should be held until the Afd is closed. There is no claim here of uniqueness. I see your point about school directories, but they have editorial integrity and are independent of the schools. Much the same information appears year after year, and any factual errors are soon pointed out and corrected. But as you have challenged that source for the hook I have added a second you may like better. Moonraker (talk) 16:19, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
- ALT1 ... that the choir of Reigate St Mary's School in England (pictured) sang in the film Angels & Demons and was featured on the soundtrack of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland ?
