I have reverted your edits about accommodation, open days etc, because they are not appropriate for an international encyclopedia. In particular, I notice that your text uses "We" frequently. This suggests that either: In either case, it is clear that you do not understand the tone of writing which is appopriate for an encycylopedia. Please stop making inappropriate contributions.

 * You have copied and pasted this material from the college's own website or other publications, or
 * You are directly involved with the college yourself, probably as a member of staff, and you need to read WP:COI carefully before considering editing this article.
 * I have also reverted your edits of 9th July (I can't have spotted them on my watchlist and am surprised no-one else did) as they
 * included inappropriate advert-like invitations to "click here" for course details etc
 * included "our", implying again either COI editing or copying from other sources
 * included undue detail about journalism week, expressed in promotional terms
 * gave no references to sources for any of the additions
 * ... etc. Pam  D  13:22, 11 July 2012 (UTC)


 * To see how it's appropriate to write about an educational establishment, have a look at some of the best Wikipedia articles: The Judd School, Royal National College for the Blind and Oriel College, Oxford are all rather different places but are UK Featured articles.

 * Hi, Jharvey12. I am Dianna and I am an administrator on this wiki. While we welcome most contributions to the encyclopedia, people who work for an organisation are discouraged from editing the article about that organisation. Notable people are asked not to edit their own articles or articles where they may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.


 * All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging.  People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible. There's more information on this topic at Conflict of interest. Copying material from the college's website is considered a copyright violation. Such material will be removed immediately.


 * Wikipedia is not intended to serve as a webhost, and is not the place to advertise, or to go into extreme detail about an organization or its mission. That is not the kind of information you would see in a book-based encyclopedia, and it's not the kind of encyclopedia we are trying to build. There's more information on this topic at What Wikipedia is not. -- Dianna (talk) 19:14, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
