I know you're working a lot on the school of information studies article right now. I would ask that you keep in mind to maintain a Neutral Point of View -- some of the page looks a little spammy right now. The text is expansive and professional and it looks good, if a little gushy, but if it's already pre-existing somewhere, it is likely to draw a flag later on for plagiarism -- wikipedia shouldn't copy existing material in most cases, especially when that material is a brochure for a college. Take a look at WP:AFD for the Articles for Deletion debates if you have a chance; it might give you an idea of the sort of thing that gets challenged.

And I am saying all this because it looks like you're a new editor with a single purpose account; if you've been around the block a few dozen times and I'm preaching to the choir, sorry! :) Deltopia 02:41, 5 October 2007 (UTC)


 * and of course it was now nominated for deletion, at Articles for deletion/School of information studies because of the promotional tone. You really should have done better. I'm, a librarian myself and I know how important this school is, but anyone looking at the article would judge otherwise. And please double check for copyright violation--if there is any, the article will be deleted and nothing can save it, and whatever you sought to accomplish will be lost, and it will hinder getting a good one in again.  Please read WP:BFAQ and WP:CCOI, and take them to heart. I'll be glad to offer advice,  by email if necessary. DGG (talk) 11:13, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
