When I said we didn't do it for the other pages, I didn't just mean Beacon students. I looked at all the character pages of students. Admittedly, I missed that JNPR had it, but I also looked at SSSN's page as well as that of various other characters from the Vytal Festival arc. Minor characters did have it mentioned down in the history section of their pages, but major characters have their own separate page for affiliations where their school is mentioned.

However, it does seem RWBY did mention they were Beacon students in the intro of their main page, only further in the intro in a way that didn't make it the first thing said about the character nor awkwardly worded as it is now that you have gone and pushed it on some of the pages that didn't do it. Now the intros for RWBY team members say it twice.

The fact their school was mentioned on all the team pages is also why it seemed redundant to me. As I see it, the characters being students is not really all that important and thus not really worthy of being the first thing said about them. By contrast, formal Teams are essentially a school-specific thing so it warrants mentioning right at the start. Since the Team pages are linked right at the start, it also seemed reasonable to have that speak to it on its own.
