Hi! Please look over the policies and guidelines in the welcome message above (particularly see The five pillars of Wikipedia). Despite what it may seem, Wikipedia does have some rules and standards. The templates I left on Morgan Bazilian actually serve a purpose. Some of the work you've done has addressed the "orphan" tag but the rest still apply to the article. These tags are not intended to clutter the article. They are intended to tell other Wikipedians what needs to be done on the article. The tags should not be removed until the concerns expressed in them have been addressed.

Removing {{notability}} tag should not be done by you for two reasons: 1) You are the creator of the article and therefor may not be a good judge of the subject's notability. 2) I (and many other editors) will assume that this may be an autobiographical article because of your screen name and this means you have a conflict of interest.

It's particularly important that the web citations directly support the facts being cited specifically. A link to the front page of a web site does little to verify the info if one has to dig deep into the site to find the specific info. I've corrected the first one in the article as an example if you'd like to fill out the the other four.

Again, I think it will help you adjust to Wikipedia if you familiarize yourself with the policies outlined above. Welcome to Wikipedia! --Pigman 19:29, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
