[edit] Welcome

Hello Wpittman, and welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with learning to edit by writing articles on you or your friends, but you should do it in the Wikipedia sandbox or on your own user page.

[edit] Crown College (Tennessee)

Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia.

A few things to keep in mind, though: everything is supposed to be neutral and cited from sources. We're also not allowed to just copy from other sites unless the text is clearly public domain or released for such use. (This avoids legal trouble.) So I did replace the content you added with what we call a "stub", a very short (but expandable!) article. I realize the stub may look biased because such a large proportion covers the accreditation issue, but that's actually just boilerplate text we put in every article about unaccredited schools. If you want to add more, please do. Just keep it inside the content guidelines. A.J.A. 20:24, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
