[edit] Hello, I'm Dl2000. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Sarah Lambert without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks!

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Sarah Lambert. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Dl2000 (talk) 23:00, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
