Hello. Your recent edit to Old Bridge High School appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Wait until there is an article about him before adding his name again. It is important to include a reliably sourced statement in the Rotkowitz article saying he is an alumni of Old Bridge.

 * I see that you added Rotkowitz again while he does not have a Wikipedia article. You added an external link to the body of the article which is against guidelines. You could insert the same link as a reference. You can use references to establish notability and status as an alumni.  The external link did not say Rotkowitz is an alumni.  You need to establish both.  Per WP:LISTPEOPLE notability generally requires an existing Wikipedia article unless the person is notable for a single event which does not appear to be the case here.  Because your link does not indicate Rotkowitz is notable for a single event and it does not say he is an alumni I've again removed it.


 * You may find it helpful to add to your draft rather than wait for a review. Biographies of living individuals require citations of reliable sources that support the content.  Your draft has no references which is typically a red flag to a reviewer.  You could convert external links in the article body (which are against guidelines) into references.  This would be helpful although I think it's unusual for an assistant professor to satisfy the WP:PROF notability guideline. I hope you enjoy your editing. Gab4gab (talk) 14:18, 5 May 2018 (UTC)

addition of Rotkowitz as a notable alumnus
In my first message to you I mentioned that it is important to include a reliably sourced statement in the Rotkowitz article saying he is an alumni of Old Bridge. You have added Rotkowitz again as a notable alumnus of Old Bridge High School and there is no mention of the school in his article. For now I've added a citation needed tag in the Old Bridge article.
