Walden West

What kind of person can't decide if an "Outdoor Nature School" is about Academics, Music, Entertainment...? Its obviously Academics, as Walden West teaches outdoor nature, and also, like the comment above,(what the hell?) your just one person. The discussion page has two people who disagree with you. And only one of them is me.

I think you've misunderstood the purpose of the tag. It's not there to query the category of the article, but rather to express a concern that the subject matter may not be well enough known (not 'notable' enough) to be included in Wikipedia. I suggest you have a look at what is said in WP:CORP and try to add some text or links that demonstate notability (these must come from independent sources and not from the Company running the Camp itself nor from people connected with it). --MichaelMaggs 06:57, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dante

OOPS. I certainly didn't mean for that to happen (ie., the Toronto is Hell reference). I should be more careful with the Show Preview vs. Save page stuff.137.186.248.248 22:11, 28 July 2006 (UTC) PS (Is this the right way to contact someone who says to.

Useful pages

Feel free to copy. It's all GFDL anyway, but very courteous to ask. I used them myself when I started (and some I still need) but mainly left them there for others. Tyrenius 19:25, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
