Please do not add or change content, as you did at Holy Ghost Preparatory School, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.  General Ization Talk  01:11, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

DiNardo was a national story. You only delete it because it makes the school look bad. The Gay teacher was a national story. You only delete it because it makes the school look bad. PatsLuck7 (talk) 01:21, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

If you want the HGP page to be accurate and complete, you could add the sources for those two national stories yourself (I did link them), but you would rather keep the HGP page controversy-free. I wonder why... PatsLuck7 (talk) 01:25, 27 September 2021 (UTC)


 * The link you piped as "Cosmo Dinardo" was deleted because neither this article nor the target article of the link you added indicate any relationship between the two articles or between Dinardo and HGPS. If there is a significant relationship, you will need to explain it.  General Ization Talk  01:26, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

The 2017 PA Murders were a national news story. DiNardo is indeed a "notable" alumni; his name made headlines nationwide in the summer of 2017. His name is more recognizable than most of the other "notable" alumni. He might not be "favorable" alumni, but he is indeed "notable." PatsLuck7 (talk) 01:30, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

 * You don't need to explain it to me. You need to explain to the readers of the article, and include citations of reliable sources, if you want to try to include any mention of the relationship or a link to the other article in the HGPS article.

 * Also, please see WP:BURDEN. As the one who is attempting to add the content, it is your responsibility and no other editor's to add citations of reliable sources that support it.  General Ization  Talk  14:07, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello PatsLuck7! Your additions to Holy Ghost Preparatory School have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 04:34, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
