Hi; I noticed you've been editing the article on Woodrow Wilson High School. Recently, you've edited the athletics section to be rather long - by my estimate, it's about three pages when copy/pasted into MS Word. This contrasts with the mere two paragraphs on the academic aspects of the school, and the much smaller articles for many other Washington, DC schools. This is termed on Wikipedia as "undue weight" - we are giving too much coverage to a topic which isn't as important or is only as important as other topics. In this case, one might think from reading this Wikipedia article that Wilson's athletic department was about seven times as important as all the academics of the school combined, which is almost certainly not the case. This is why I prefer a more pared-down version of the athletics section, and have been editing the article to that end. If you have any questions, you can ask me on my talk page, or respond right here; I will notice and respond either way. Thanks for editing, FlamingSilmaril (talk) 23:45, 15 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Please see the message above, as well as the one I left here: Talk:Woodrow Wilson High School (Washington, D.C.). If you disagree with me, please explain why, but do not just continue to revert the changes without discussion.  Thank you, FlamingSilmaril (talk) 00:02, 4 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I have said many times that I believe the sports section in the Woodrow Wilson High School (Washington, D.C.) article to be too long, and yet you continue to readd enormous amounts of text to it without discussing it. Before readding the text again, I implore you to take it up in a discussion, either here or on the talk page for the article: Talk:Woodrow Wilson High School (Washington, D.C.).  One important aspect of Wikipedia is that contributors can discuss changes on which they disagree and try to come to a consensus. Thanks, FlamingSilmaril (talk) 15:16, 28 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't mean to seem rude, but do you know how to use the features of Wikipedia involving discussion and talk pages? Your pattern of edits suggests that either you do not know how to use a talk page or you do know but are refusing to do so.  In either case, I would suggest that you read Talk page and respond to the concerns I have raised multiple times.  We take discussion and consensus extremely seriously on Wikipedia, because it is much more effective to discuss something with fellow editors than to repeatedly re-add it without explanation.  Thanks, FlamingSilmaril (talk) 23:32, 4 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I would again like to implore you to discuss your edits to the page before repeatedly adding large amounts of text to this section. If you continue to act without discussion, I will ask for an administrator to get involved in the situation. FlamingSilmaril (talk) 17:06, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
