Hello Mmaderia - It is fairly obvious that you registered and then added your name to the list of "eminent lighting designers working in the US today" in Lighting_designer. This appears to be against the wikipedia policy for vanity WP:VAIN and also Importance, though I agree that a few other names on the list are less notable than others. For now I have removed your name from the list. I would be happy to write an article about you for Wikipedia if you can point me to some sources where I could learn more about your accomplishments and notability. --Mattarata 19:21, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
