Hello, I'm Aeschylus. I noticed that in this edit to Robert E. Lee High School (Baytown, Texas), you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. aeschylus (talk) 21:01, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Robert E. Lee High School (Baytown, Texas). While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. aeschylus (talk) 21:11, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

Copyrights
Your edit summary said "The person who revised this page earlier does not have all their facts. The Baytown Historical Preservation, which I am president of and worked on the marker, has the copyrights to what I published." So if the Baytown Historical Preservation owns the copyright then you don't and so you are violating their copyright.

Your edit summary said "We, the Baytown Historical Preservation Association were responsible for this marker and text should be from us." No. It's the editors of Wikipedia by consensus that decide what is added. You can advocate for what you want but you don't get to control it.

If you own the copyright then you need to understand what you are doing when you post it on Wikipedia. You are giving anyone, Reusing Wikipedia content, the opportunity to edit and change what you have written. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 22:07, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

Baytown Historical Preservation Association website
I spent some time looking at the BHPA [site:http://baytownhistory.org/ website]. You've got some interesting information. While there is a very a lengthy write-up on Robert E. Lee High School, the site gives only a single-line mention for the High School that Black students attended. There is one sentence that recognizes the existence of Baytown Mexican School, which was the segregated school that Hispanic students attended from 1923 until the 1950s or 1960s. I would like you to ask yourself if you are the President of the Baytown Historical Preservation Association or the Baytown White Historical Preservation Association. Please consider that the history you are preserving is the history of what is now a minority of Baytown residents. Thanks Jacona (talk) 12:27, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
