Welcome, and thank you for experimenting with the Loughborough University page on Wikipedia! Your test worked, and thank you for reverting or removing it yourself. The best way to do tests in the future would be to use the sandbox. You can look at these pages as well: how to edit a page, the tutorial, and how to write a great article. All of these pages are good places to start. Again, thanks, and we hope that you will like Wikipedia. Ian3055 19:28, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lboro

Sorry if that message came across a bit strong, they are almost automatic, and in fact I didnt use the correct one did I, oops.

Essentially the point with the additions that you made to the Alumni list was that the first one didnt seem to link to the same person as the engineer you listed, if it is the correct person and they have graduated from Loughborough then they ought to be on there. The general rule of thumb is that if a person has an article eg Sebastian Coe, Baron Coe, then we would link to it, if the person isnt notable enough to have an article then they arent usually notable enough to be on a list like that. If you're really interested then there are some suggestions here.

On your list suggestion, I hope that the notablity issue clears this up, and whilst it might be a nice idea, Wikipedia isnt the place for it I'm afraid. And thumbs up on the DC link, I have put different text over it so we can see what it is easily. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Feel free to ask me questions or whatever on my talk page whenever, I usually get back to them the same day if not the next. Ian3055 23:06, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
