[edit] Seoul Foreign School

Hello, you (someone using this IP address) keep adding a name to the list of notable alumni on the Seoul Foreign School article, however, you do not provide any links to prove that the alumni is indeed notable. It would be really useful if you could discuss this on the talk page of the article so that we can see whether they should be listed or not. Thanks Twigletmac 15:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Please do discuss this on the article's talk page rather than just readding the name, otherwise it will simply need to be reverted once more. Thanks Twigletmac 16:43, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia.

Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Please discuss re-adding the same name on the article's talk page instead of constantly replacing it. skip (t / c) 11:20, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi there, thanks for the note. The talk page seems to clearly indicate that there is disagreement that Ien Chi is notable or an alumnus. The argument you gave on the talk page for adding the name is "Sheesh people, can't we just have a little bit of fun?...And please don't respond by telling me to go read the Wikipedia rules and that every piece of information needs citable sources."
That's not very persuasive. Like other people have mentioned above, please do discuss the name on the talk page before repeatedly replacing it. If he's notable, sourcing that would make everyone happy and also improve the article. Per policy, unsourced information can be removed at any time by anyone. Providing evidence is the burden of the person adding the information. Please also see WP:3RR and WP:POINT. You are very close to violating the three-revert rule, which is a blockable offence. Repeatedly adding a name that others have challenged because it's "fun" is likely to be considered vandalism. Thanks in advance. skip (t / c) 10:45, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
