Hi David. Please don't use bare URLs (such as 'www.example.com') on wikipedia as references. Please formate your references with an appropriate method, such as Template:Cite web. As well as looking a lot tidier, formatting references in this manner helps prevent link rot. Here is an example where I have done this for you [1]. Note that once the reference is formatted with cite web, it appears at the bottom of the article as "Hurst, Daniel (9 June 2014). "Complaints about school chaplaincy program on the decline, figures show". The Guardian. Retrieved July 6, 2014.", rather than as just 'http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jun/09/complaints-about-school-chaplaincy-program-on-the-decline-figures-show'. Have a nice day.

[edit]Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to White privilege . Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Grayfell (talk) 06:39, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
