Hello, Charles langtry! Thank you for your contributions. My name's Airplaneman and I just wanted to say hi and Welcome to Wikipedia!

You may benefit from following some of the links below, which will help you get the most out of the world's largest encyclopædia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking   or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name, the date and the time. You'll soon learn to appreciate people using helpful edit summaries, so please contribute by filling in that box (just above Save Page) every time you edit.

If you are already loving Wikipedia, you might want to consider being "adopted" by a more experienced editor or joining a WikiProject to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest. (There's a comprehensive Directory of WikiProjects, and you'll find many article talk pages have banners from a relevant project.) Again, welcome, and happy editing!

  Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article The London Institute Junior & Middle School, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Airplaneman 21:41, 29 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

 

The article The London Institute Junior & Middle School has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This school fails to meet the notability criteria for schools. From WP:CLUB: Organizations whose activities are local in scope (e.g., a school or local chapter of a club) may be notable if there is substantial verifiable evidence of coverage by reliable independent sources outside the organization's local area. Where coverage is only local in scope, the organization may be included as a section in an article on the organization's local area instead.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Ecemaml (talk) 18:16, 15 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
