University College of Agriculture and Environmental Studies
Unfortunately, the article you submitted is a copy of, the About ACES web page. As one of the administrators here, I would in general need to delete such articles. But it is important that we have articles about universities and other institutions in Africa, and other areas where our coverage is relatively scarce. Since I often work on university articles, I have therefore rewritten the basics. When you add to it, remember:

Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia, whose content must be free for anyone to use, and we therefore cannot accept material that has been published elsewhere. Even if this is your own web site, and you are  willing to give us permission according to WP:DCM, the tone will not be encyclopedic and the material will not be suitable.

Such was the case: the material contained excessive detail about the internal organisation of the university, and praise of the authorities who established it. It also had too much background about why the university is good for the country.

As a general rule, a suitable page will be best written by someone without Conflict of Interest; it's not impossible to do it properly with a conflict of interest or as a paid press agent, but it's relatively more difficult: you are automatically thinking in terms of what the subject wishes to communicate to the public, but an uninvolved person will think in terms of what the public might wish to know.
