Bowling Green Technical College
Please stop restoring the commentary added to Bowling Green Technical College. It is in violation of WP:NPOV. Also, all additions to articles should be cited with reliable sources. I happen to know that you are correct that BGTC is not accredited, but even this fact should be cited. Comments like "Some in-state schools have lowered their standards and adopted articulation agreements at the request of KY's higher education leaders" (emphasis mine) are opinion, and do not belong in Wikipedia.

 * This wiki should contain the fact that BGTC is not acredited. Since you knew it and didn't include it, I have to assume you are trying to hide it. If you choose to add this info (without placing it where it would not easily be seen) I will stop editing it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nekidtrufe (talk • contribs)
 * First, your claim that I am trying to hide something does not assume good faith, which is one of Wikipedia's guidelines. Second, if you'll read what I wrote above, I never said the article shouldn't contain this factual information. I said that if it were added, it should be cited to a reliable source. I did say your editorial comments about "lowering standards...at the request of KY's education leaders" were a violation of WP:NPOV, and I stand by that assessment. If you want to add the sterile fact that BGTC is not accredited, absent any additional POV commentary, I'd probably be inclined to leave it, even without a cite. However, if you persist in adding commentary, it will eventually be reported to an administrator and earn you a ban from editing. All I'm asking is that you comply with Wikipedia policy.

 * I'm not really into the wiki thing and appreciate folks like you that take the time to publish articles. I believe that people researching the school to determine if its the right choice should be aware that it isn't accredited.
 * Since I'm not familiar with the rules of wiki, would you include the accreditation info? All I want is to see it included. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nekidtrufe (talk • contribs)
 * Well, I hope students are using more than Wikipedia to research their college choices! LOL Still, I found time on my lunch break to look up the current status of BGTC's accreditation. I have added that they are a candidate for accreditation from SACS, and have cited a source to back up this claim. That's the best way to make edits on Wikipedia. Hope you'll stick around, learn the ropes, and enjoy contributing. If you have any questions, you're always welcome to ask me via my talk page.
