[edit] To do

If you're really bored, you might want to go to this page: Wikipedia:Most wanted stubs, and find something of interest (either a stub, or one of the many other areas of wikipedia needing work, as listed on the right side of the page). When you find something of interest, then google (in one of its many incantations) and/or other search engines can provide just about everything you need (but you still have to edit, synthesize, and avoid copying so much that you violate a copyright).

In other words, dinking around with articles like Great Neck Village School and/or other subjects that you know really closely doesn't really add a lot of value, and may not do much to reduce boredom. John Broughton 22:48, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please be careful

Read Help:Move and Wikipedia:How to archive a page, this is the second time you have incorrectly submitted the social promotion FAC process. I have now fixed it, but the article is far from FAC quality, please read Wikipedia:What is a featured article first. Thrice the charm, I hope.-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus  talk}  15:34, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
