Hello, I'm WikiDan61. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Notre Dame Academy (New York) because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

I've reverted your addition of a mission statement to Notre Dame Academy (New York). You have been given several warnings about trying to use Wikipedia to promote your school. I recommend you stop and read the various guidelines in the welcome message above to understand how properly to use Wikipedia in a neutral and non-promotional manner.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Notre Dame Academy (New York), you may be blocked from editing. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 20:27, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Neutrality
You still haven't quite got the point of writing in a neutral voice. Your recent edits to Notre Dame Academy (New York) were quite off the mark. Phrases such as are all really unacceptably promotional. I have taken the opportunity to tone them down. Please understand that your conflict of interest regarding this school means that you may not be the proper person to be updating the article. But if you insist on doing so, please work to maintain a more neutral tone. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:10, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
