I moved the draft you were working on from your old username to a subpage of your new one. It is now located at User:Lisapisano1/Institute of Culinary Education. Now that you have this account you should stop using the old one. I will try and help work on the article this evening. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Perfect. Will you be posting the article or should I? I have also uploaded a logo and have edited the subpage to reflect that.

I like what you've done here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_Atlantic_University by the way. =) Lisapisano1 (talk) 17:37, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I think you should wait and let me edit it, find some citations, and a few other things, and then I will post it tonight. Once posted, I again suggest you do not edit it unless removing vandalism or fixing punctuation/grammar. You should instead post comments on the article's talk page about the content, inaccuracies, etc., then we can discuss and address them. Also, I added a fair use rationale to the image's page.

Ok, this will work well. If there are any areas that you see in the content that you say "hey this is a claim, and it needs backing up" - highlight that and I will find 3rd party references to back it up. I'll let the page simmer a little bit after it get published and will follow your advice on the talk page. Lisapisano1 (talk) 17:54, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

I really need to get some work done. So this will be my last comment until tonight. Can you provide any links to third party sources, like newspapers, magazines, etc., that specifically focus on or about the school? If you can, post the links below. I looked for about 2 minutes and saw a lot of mentions, but not an article entirely about the school (which would be very useful). Until later. KnightLago (talk) 18:16, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Here's a few good resources on the site: History, Awards, Interviews / Articles - i'll be busy for a few hours as well. Lisapisano1 (talk) 18:56, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Ok, I have moved it back to the main space. It is now at Institute of Culinary Education and it should not be deleted in its current form. However, it is still a work in progress. I have removed some of information that you had in there before. A lot of it was not relevant to an article about the school. Information about the founder not directly related to the school, key personnel, advisory councils, etc. don't belong in an encyclopedia article. However, there is still work to be done, and I will try and work on it little by little over the next few weeks. Working on these articles and improving them is a long process. If you have ideas or think more encyclopedic information should be added post comments on the article's talk page. I will keep an eye on it. Let me know if you have any questions.

This looks great! I'm going to look into building out the Rick Smilow page + a few others. I see that you spent several hours going through this last night, I appreciate that a lot! I'll be traveling this weekend but I look forward to working with you on this any some other articles. Lisapisano1 (talk) 15:00, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up OrangeMike. I'll be running changes through KnightLago so that there is a 3rd party element involved. Lisapisano1 (talk) 15:52, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
