The link that you provide for "Phillip Burton" connects with the past congressman from San Francisco California. There is no indication that this Phillip Burton performed any acting or founded any educational institution. The founder of AMDA was Phillip H. Burton a Welsh actor who was the person that adopted Richard Burton. There are few other listings on the internet of Phillip H. Burton. Ronald E.

 * Normally, editors are encouraged to be bold and make any changes to articles that they feel are needed themselves; however, it appears that you might be in someway connected to the subject of the article. If that's the case, please take a look at Wikipedia:Edit requests and Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide for some general information. You can use Template:Request edit to request changes to articles. There's currently a bit of a back-log, but eventually someone should respond. The key thing is to try and be as specific as possible as to what changes you would like made and provide any links, etc. which support your reasons for wanting to make said change. It's best to request something like "Change A to B in sentence 1 of section XXXX" or "Add this file to the main infobox", etc. to make it easier for someone else to help. All editors are volunteers and those who help out answering edit requests might not want to take the time to try to sort through an ambiguously worded long list of requests. So, it's best to keep things simple.
 * As for you question about "Notable alumni", lots of the article content appears to have been recently revision deleted as a copyright violation by, so I'm not sure if that was one of the things removed as a copyvio. In general, however, lists of notable alumni are expected to follow WP:ALUMNI and WP:LSC. The basic assumption is that all of the individuals in the list either (1) already have a Wikipedia article written about them, or (2) are deemed Wikipedia notable enough to have an article written about; anyone not fitting into either of those two categories probably should not be included. Of course, the fact an a individual is an alumnus or attended the school should be something verifiable through citations to reliable sources either in their individual articles (for case (1)) or by adding a citation to this article in support (for case (2)).
 * Regarding images, the thing to make sure of is that the image use complies with Wikipedia:Image use policy. Image licensing is probably the thing which trips people up the most, so please take a look at Wikipedia:Copyrights for some more information. After licensing, the next important thing is probably encyclopedic relevance/context, as explained in Wikipedia:Image use policy. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:07, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Just a note to let you know that the alumni list was removed because there was no sources (not for copyvio reasons). For each person on the list, we need a citation that includes the information that they attended the school. Regarding the logo, there's no evidence that the file is released under license or that it's your own work. However, it's simple enough to be in the public domain so I have corrected the licensing. Please don't upload any photos unless you've taken the picture yourself or the copyright holder has released the image under a compatible license. See commons:Commons:OTRS for more info on how to provide proof of permission for other people's photos. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:41, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
