Not sure what other reliable sources to cite other than what I already have cited...
Hopefully this is seen by user Gwickwire, as I visited your talk page an saw that you asked that responses to edits you've made should be done on my talk page.

Anyway, the comment that you left kind of leaves me at a loss of what to do. All of the citations I made in my article for creation for Fulbright Norway are necessarily from the website... I can't imagine finding reliable sources that will convey the information I needed to convey that aren't from a Fulbright website.

I'm "interning" with Fulbright Norway, and was asked to create a Wikipedia page that would quickly and efficiently summarize what Fulbright is, and what it has to offer. In essence, I was asked to gather information about all the Fulbright Norway programs and lay it out on one page. In my mind, there is no better source than going to the official Fulbright organization's page.

Furthermore, not to necessarily point fingers, but the task of creating this Wikipedia page was inspired by my supervisor seeing Fulbright Austria's Wikipedia page. That page contains much of the same kind of information my article for creation had, and they cited Fulbright Austria's webpage for approximately 50% of the citations. How does that Wikipedia article qualify for creation, but not mine?

I say none of this in an accusatory manner. I'm genuinely curious (albeit frustrated) about how Fulbright Austria's Wikipedia page was created, while Fulbright Norway's was not. I don't really have personal stake in this, but it would be kind of a shame to have wasted my time in learning how to format a Wikipedia article, make citations, etc., and it would be a disappointment to my supervisor.

I sincerely hope that you, Gwickwire, can provide some explanations for the questions I've asked.

Many thanks in advance. EvanBD (talk) 10:27, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
