==Use of schedule in (insert name here)==
Hi there
I noticed that you added a schedule to the [[(insert name here)]] article. Sadly I had to revert the edit you made for the following reasons:

* Schedules can consitute [[original research]] and therefore fail [[Wikipedia:Attribution|attribution]] policy.
* If you have taken a schedule from a website, they are copyrighted and the schedule could be in violation of [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright policy]].
Apologies for reverting your changes. Please refrain from adding schedules to articles in the future. Thank you. --~~~~
