Hello, I'm Gtwfan52. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Bowling Green, Kentucky, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! 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. ''Generally, to be included on a list of notable people in Wikipedia, the subject has to be notable enough to have a Wikipedia article on him, or you need to show enough referencing to show that one could be written. If you have the referencing, why not write the article? WP:WTAF'' Gtwfan52 (talk) 00:23, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Hi, Pam. I just thought I would write you a little note and give you some help before you end up in trouble over inserting the cadet into the article on Bowling Green.  Notability is a term that, here on Wikipedia, has a very specific and complex meaning.  No one is saying that this guy isn't a good football player and I can't even imagine how hard it is to be a student-athlete at one of the Academies.  Notability is the standards for inclusion in Wikipedia.  The particular standard that applies here is WP:NCOLLATH.  Most college athletes are NOT notable enough for Wikipedia articles. To be eligible for an article, a college athlete must have won a major award, such as a Heisman trophy, must have set a record, or must have had numerous,  not just hometown, articles written about him (not his team) in different papers.  Once he completes his studies and his service requirement and becomes a pro, it will be much easier.  The requirements for a pro are lower, as the fact that they are on a pro football team shows most of the needed notability. Gtwfan52 (talk) 09:32, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
