Re: "Chance school"—don't post advertisements on Wikipedia. All content must be written from a neutral point of view and verifiable; promotional text or self-praise is not acceptable. Postdlf 19:45, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: your comment in the e-mail you sent me, it was an advertisement because it completely consisted of promotional language, rather than verifiable facts. "Chance School employs a philosophy that breaks away from outdated assumptions regarding traditional learning and teaching practices." Great, that means nothing concrete. Furthermore, Wikipedia isn't merely a database for "listings" of schools that only consist of contact information—this isn't a phone book. Try reading through other articles on the site to get an idea of what information we expect, and start with our policies at Wikipedia:Welcome. Postdlf 22:38, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
