Can we really say people prior to "A. Okehurst" are from the 20th century? Coal Hill was formed in the 19th and those people could of died then. --[[Special:Contributions/90.197.233.150|90.197.233.150]]<sup>[[User talk:90.197.233.150#top|talk to me]]</sup> 15:11, November 5, 2016 (UTC)

Would the information on this page be better presented in an out-of-universe format as a table?

Past tense

Moving present tense comments here so they can be fixed — all in universe pages are to be written in the past tense. Shambala108 15:00, October 24, 2016 (UTC)

Next on the list is H. Parson, the headmaster, (PROSE: Nothing at the End of the Lane) who was presumably killed by the Imperial Daleks as a security risk, and a A. S. Alfredson who is possibly the missing caretaker. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks)
S. Foreman, referencing Susan Foreman, the Doctor's granddaughter is on the list after leaving Coal Hill without a trace. (TV: An Unearthly Child) She did not return, (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth) unlike her teachers. (TV: The Chase, PROSE: Who Killed Kennedy, TV: The Day of the Doctor)
Following Susan's is a number of names: H. Passerini, L. Fletling, D. Gough, A. Fairchild, P. Smith, R. Thornton, E. Odell-Grey, S. C. Hackett, C. Christie, H. Lamonde, P. Hobbs, J. Thorburn, H. Sturzacher, L. Sleeman, D. Young, S. Wilard-Fleming, T. J Marsden, J. Owston-Tuff, W. Pickle, D. Roscoe, J. O'Brien, W. Tardif, B. Nagys-Kovacs, K. Yim, A. Nowak, P. Kakuszi, S. D. Michel, F. G. Whitlock, C. Shelton, A. Rawlinson, K. E. Drinkwater, and L. Millikin.
Following those names is A. Dunlop, a teacher during Clara Oswald's tenure. (TV: The Magician's Apprentice) Following that are H. Beyer-Cox and R. Phillips-Rees. Then R. D Pink is on the board, referring to Rupert "Danny" Pink, a maths teacher, who was killed in a car crash, (TV: Dark Water) and C. OswaldClara Oswald—an English teacher, who was killed by the Quantum Shade. (TV: Face the Raven)
I added these information back (in past) and removed a bit of speculation as well. OncomingStorm12th 15:51, October 24, 2016 (UTC)

Okehurst backwards

Can we really say people prior to "A. Okehurst" are from the 20th century? Coal Hill was formed in the 19th and those people could of died then. --90.197.233.150talk to me 15:11, November 5, 2016 (UTC)

Table?

Would the information on this page be better presented in an out-of-universe format as a table? Columns could read "Name on board", "Presumed individual", "Cause of death or disappearance" and "Source". The "presumed" is part of the argument for presenting it out-of-universe, since while common sense tells us that, for example, "Gibson. J." is Joe Gibson, technically we don't really know that. The other part of the argument is just that a wall-of-text list is not as useful to readers as a table might be. —Josiah Rowe 05:38, November 6, 2016 (UTC)
