Hello, I'm John from Idegon. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Mattawan High School, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''Information in an encyclopedia is required to be able to be sourced to reliable (by our definition) sources, independent of the school. This isn't the music department website. Trust me, no one cares what random names you assigned to your marching band's shows. We don't cover any achievement less than a victory (not first division) in state or higher level competition. And those achievements, if this school actually had them, would require an independent source. Students are welcome to edit the article on their school, as long as you realize the article is not for the school, it's about it; and the article does not belong to the school, it belongs to Wikipedia and you are required to edit it according to our policies and guidelines, something you agreed to do when you registered your account.''
