Hello, I'm
John from Idegon. I noticed that you made a change to an article,
Fort Hunt High School, but you didn't provide a
reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to
include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the
referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on
my talk page. You have shown nothing to show that the violinist is notable. See
WP:BIO for guidence on what that takes and plase read
WP:WTAF and consider following its advice. None of the entries you added were shown by either their articles or by any of the references you added to be connected to the school. Both
notability and a properly referenced connection to the school either added to the list or in their bio is required for inclusion on lists like these.

It should be noted that when I attempted to chastise John for reverting a new editor, I should have taken a look the references. Some mentioned the people went to a different school than what was mentioned. The other references gained with in bio but didn't state where they went to school, and it would be original research to include that without the reference stating what school they went to. John is an experienced editor, and would've explained the situation far better than I could glean with just a brief overview. I'd listen to him, and please negate my earlier comments about 'biting'. It's not what John was doing. Tutelary ( talk) 16:52, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
I've removed the entry you added because for lists like these when we say "Notable people" we mean "people who have a biography in Wikipedia" (see also this), which is not the case with the person you listed. Perhaps they do deserve an article of their own, if they meet the notability guidelines. § FreeRangeFrog croak 18:44, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
