Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Furness College, Lancaster University, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Hey, Adam, your edits were essentially indistinguishable from the typical vandalism where people insert their own name into positions of prominence. Looks like maybe you were serious, though. It's generally not wise to do self-promotion on wikipedia; see WP:COI. Better approach would be to post your info on the article's discussion page, along with a source where it can be verified, and let other editors add your name to the article. And use edit summaries to help others understand when your edit is serious. Dicklyon (talk) 04:27, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
