This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you create an inappropriate page, you will be blocked from editing. I refer not only to your repeated recreation of a copyrighted article, but your claim of self-made pages on what are clearly screenshots of the site you're attempting to promote.

  • Additionally, please bear in mind that Wikipedia articles should be neutrally-written encyclopedic pieces about the subject. This is not a repository for copies of the school's promotional material on its website, nor of quarterly newsletters. —C.Fred (talk) 23:00, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

In response to your message on my talk page: Schools are deemed inherently notable and articles are encouraged. As C.Fred pointed out, you simply can't dump promotional text from their website to ours. I encourage you to try again, but take a look at other articles on schools to get an idea of what yours needs to look like. Sneak a peek at the manual of style as well. An article on the school in your own words would be most welcome. And no...you aren't bothering anyone. In fact, I'm glad you took the time to contact me. Now that we have a dialogue, please don't hesitate to seek me out for help. The crew at WikiProject Schools will fall over themselves to give you a hand. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 23:32, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
