User talk:Blackstone856

Hi Blackstone856, and welcome to Wikipedia! I appreciate your efforts on the Achievement page. However, that page is a disambiguation page, which is supposed to only be short descriptions and links to different meanings of the word "achievement." Content like you added should be on a page for "Student achievement" or similar topic, not on the disambig page. Thanks! Iulus Ascanius (talk) 22:35, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
