User talk:Dickens2023

Welcome!
Hello, Dickens2023, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

 * Hello, WikiDan61, and thank you for your warm reception to Wikipedia :-)
 * Since this is my first edit, can you please direct me to an example of an edit that does not conform to NPOV? Is this an issue with the content I uploaded or a reference from a site Wikipedia does not deem reputable? I made quite a few changes to the page so I would appreciate your guidance!
 * Thank you!

 * I apologize for the late reply; I have not been monitoring this talk page, and I was not notified of your question. So, some things about your initial edit to American College of Greece that violated neutrality:
 * ACG is unique in Greece in providing a comprehensive education rooted in the American values of innovation, equity, and meritocracy that links students to the regional marketplace and global opportunities. This is ad-speak: claiming that ACG is "unique" for some feature is just a way of promoting the school. Has anyone actually surveyed every school in Greece to see that ACG is unique in these characteristics? Doubtful.
 * ACG provides a high-quality, American-accredited education at an affordable price. More ad-speak.
 * The overall tone of the article, whether verifiable or not, has the tone of an advertisement rather than a neutral, factual article.
 * I will reiterate the question asked below: do you have a connection to ACG? If so, you might be better advised not to edit the article directly, but rather make edit requests at the article's talk page. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 13:00, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
