Fulbright Program[edit]

I have reverted your edit to this article again. The list of notable alumni should only include individuals about whom a Wikipedia article already exists, ie they are "notable" as that term is used on Wikipedia. I hope this helps.--ukexpat (talk) 20:43, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your userpage[edit]

Hello. I deleted your userpage. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, Wikipedia is not a web hosting service and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:41, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your userpage[edit]

Your userpage looked like an article, so per WP:FAKEARTICLE I've moved the draft to a sandbox. This is a page within your own user space. Please see your userpage for the link.

Thank you, welcome, and happy editing. :)

Hi Kristin. In response to your email on this topic, the reason the page needs to live in "User:" space rather than article space is due to our notability requirements. If you want a Wikipedia article about yourself, you will need to provide third-party references to support the content. Further, while userpage "about this editor" bios are generally OK, writing an article about oneself is generally discouraged. I hope this helps clarify. 28bytes (talk) 03:51, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
