Your edits on the Appalachian Trail
I'm sorry your additions to the Appalachian Trail have been deleted, but they were not appropriate for a wikipedia article. They were largely your opinion and it was written as a how-to guide - both of those things are not what wikipedia is all about. (See WP:NOTMANUAL for more guidance.)

There are plenty of other websites where advice on hiking the AT is appropriate that you can use for your school project, but not in a wikipedia article. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 21:13, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

From Gilly: Hi I understand that but when your scholarly professor demands it MUST be on wikipedia... then it must be on wikipedia. Unless I'm an idiot and theres another Wikipedia. But we both know that is not the case. All I'm asking is to please just leave it up for literally 24 hours. It's due at midnight tonight and I present it at 11:30 tomorrow. I will literally delete it myself DURING class. You cannot be this heartless. Say, what college did you attend? Or are you still attending? If so you understand the ridiculous demands of a professor. I really don't even care about the content. It's just for a grade. There has to be a way you can allow it to stay up for less than 24 hours. -Upset Gilly
 * Put it on the article's Talk page. That's wikipedia, too. Your professor is an idiot. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 00:53, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Or you could make a legitimate edit to the article, something that fits within wikipedia's guidelines. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 00:55, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
