Hello, I'm Meters. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Pensacola Christian College, 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. The school's own web page does not differentiate between male and female students wrt the rules you changed. Meters (talk) 07:01, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello, DenisGLabrecque. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Pensacola Christian College, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
• instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Since you state that you are a student here you have a conflict of interest and should be careful about editing this article. Meters (talk) 07:09, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello Meters. The Pathway clearly states that "Male students may not be off campus with female students unless the female is 23 or older." This means that the age of the male student doesn't matter unless the female student is 23 or older. DenisGLabrecque (talk) 07:14, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Additionally, let me add that the information on this page is biased to make conflicts more prominent. For instance, the conflict with Kent Hovind's tax returns and the fact that "nursing students are told...", as well as the decision of non-accreditation seem out of place and should be under a more consistent heading such as "Religious Views".

Also, the nursing program has just been accredited, and the engineering one is on its way. DenisGLabrecque (talk) 07:20, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

I don't know what the Pathway is. The school's web pages that I cited in my edit summaries do not differentiate between women and men. Since you have a conflict of interest you should propose any further changes on the article's talk page with your reliable sources and see if editors with no conflict of interest agree with the changes. Meters (talk) 07:22, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

And I disagree that accreditation issue is out of place. For a college to have gone unaccredited for almost 40 years is a pretty telling comment on the school. This is one of the reason we ask people with conflicts of interest not to edit articles. Meters (talk) 07:24, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments. The Pathway is the student guidebook. You may refer to the correct article here: 23 and older, Pathway DenisGLabrecque (talk) 07:28, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

I can see how the fact that the school chose to remain unaccredited is important. However, since the college is now accredited, more attention should be placed on the motivs behind the lack of accreditation, rather than the lack thereof - since the college was not opposed to accreditation per se, but wanted to maintain the type of education it was built to promote.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:DenisGLabrecque.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:DenisGLabrecque.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:38, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

Note that this is my own work, and that I have permission to release it as I will. I sent an email through the OTRS tool. Is that all there's to do? DenisGLabrecque (talk)
