Hello, I'm Piguy101. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the page Booker High School (Sarasota, Florida), because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. ''The reference you added does not seem to have any relation to the alumni that you added. In addition, the notability of the person is unclear. If you have any questions or think I made a mistake, ask me. Thanks'' Piguy101 (talk) 21:24, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I want to know what you're reasoning/methodology is behind adding "notable alumni" -- is this based on fame alone? There are quite a few that should be added to this list. I added myself because I've done a lot since 2006, equal to many of the alumni you have listed already. I know many other who are worthy of being "notable alumni" not on the list as well.
 * Read this to clear things up: Notable alumni. According to the page, "A person should be included as a "notable alumna or alumnus" if the person would qualify for an article in his or her own right." If you think this is so for certain individuals, go ahead and add them. However, all additions must be sourced, or they may be viewed as vandalism and reverted.

 * PS: Keep in mind that your alma mater is not your ticket to Wikipedia and remember that though it is allowed, an article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing. If you have any questions, ask me. Piguy101 (talk) 23:21, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I am sorry if I seemed off putting. I try not to bite the newcomers. I encourage you to contribute to Wikipedia and may add to the notable alumni. Make sure that your additions have a source, however, or you edits may look like vandalism. You have equal right to remove content from articles as well such as if you have good reason, such as lack of notability for certain individuals. Ask if have have questions.
