Hello, ItsjustMaddi, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Saint Mary's College of California has not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Our articles

[edit]

I saw your post at the Arbitration Committee Clerks' talk page. They are clerks working for members of the Arbitration Committee which doesn't deal with content in any case. You're being reverted because your edits are not encylopedic. Would you expect to find text similar to what you've been adding in a multi-volume paper encyclopedia? It looks as though you may have copied it from a brochure or website, in which case it would be both promotional and a copyright violation. Our articles are meant to be mainly sources to independent sources discussing the subject which meet WP:RS. The editors reverting you aren't clerks but ordinary editors like you, just with more experience. Read Wikipedia:College and university article advice before you edit again please.
