CRM
Hi, LorrieJean. Thank you for getting involved with Wikipedia and great job of being bold with the entry that you added to CRM. I just wanted to let you know that I reverted that entry, though and I wanted to tell you why. The CRM page falls into a category of pages known as disambiguation pages that help readers find the article they are looking for among similarly named articles. As no articles currently have links to "Certified Reiki Master", the manual of style for disambiguation pages specifies that it should not (yet) be included on the page. Additionally, disambiguation pages should not include reference citations or external links.

So let's figure out how to get some info about this topic into the encyclopedia. The two best ways are:


 * An article about the certification could be created, keeping in mind that it would have to be properly sourced.
 * You could add some info about the certification to the Reiki article and a redirect could be pointed to the section that was added.

I would be happy to try and assist you if either of these strike your fancy.

Additionally, I removed your question from the Feedback board as that is for getting folks to take a look at content that you created or reworked. You are actually looking for the New contributor's help desk. This is a great place to ask questions and to find lots of helpful editors.

I really don't want to scare you off or have you feel like you have been bitten on your first day, so please drop me a line on my talk page. Once, again, welcome. -- Gwguffey (talk) 05:14, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
