advice and suggestions

[edit]

I see you are one of the principal editors of Beaconhouse School System]], and you have edited nothing else.

I assume you therefore have some connection with the group. As a general rule, a suitable page will be best written by someone without Conflict of Interest; it's not impossible to do it properly with a conflict of interest or as a paid press agent, but it's relatively more difficult: you are automatically thinking in terms of what the subject wishes to communicate to the public, but an uninvolved person will think in terms of what the public might wish to know.

There are some major problems with the existing article(s):

Most of this article is copied or is a very close paraphrase of the group's website, and I have so marked it. The article will soon be edited to remove or rewrite that content, and you must make certain you never add such material again. Even if you are in a position to give us permission according to WP:DCM, the tone will not be encyclopedic and the material will not be suitable. (Thus, there is generally no purpose in giving permission; it is better to rewrite.)

Additionally, a Wikipedia article needs to show notability with references providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. The article has almost no such references.

Include only material that would be of interest to a general reader coming across the mention of the subject and wanting the sort of information that would be found in an encyclopedia. Do not include material that would be of interest only to those associated with the subject, or to prospective clients/purchasers/students--that sort of content is considered promotional.
