UTSA
Hi Updater1969, you are probably right that University of Texas at San Antonio is the primary topic for UTSA but you need to gain consensus on the UTSA talk page (or, if there's no action there, you could try Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation) before making that change. In addition, a page can be either a disambiguation page (or article) or a redirect, not both. So putting both #REDIRECT and on the same page really screws things up.

 * I've proposed the change at Talk:UTSA and I will add a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation. Leschnei (talk) 14:16, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Your addition to University of Texas at San Antonio has been removed or altered, as it appears to closely paraphrase a copyrighted source. Limited close paraphrasing or quotation is appropriate within reason, so long as the material is clearly attributed in the text. However, longer paraphrases which are not attributed to their source may constitute copyright violation or plagiarism, and are not acceptable on Wikipedia. Such content cannot be hosted here for legal reasons; please do not upload it. You may use external websites or printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If you own the copyright to the text, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the copyright but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Thank you. Contributor321 (talk) 05:41, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
