| Best regards, | |||
| Hi, | |||
| A4Tech | |||
| I just noticed the flag you left about excessive use of images. I'm a little confused because I based my addition off existing articles about universities (see Harvard or Yale) that utilize the same type of gallery for notable alumni, with even more images (Harvard article uses 30 images, Yale uses 28), but none of those have been flagged for the same issue. Are those not flagged because you didn't notice, or is there something particular about my edits? | |||

Why did you delete my addition to this article. I go to this college and think its inappropriate for you to delete it. Schwajar000 (talk) 23:49, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- I removed much of it because it was overly detailed and promotional.
- You're welcome to open a discussion in the article's Talk page or ask for input at WT:UNI if you'd like opinions from other editors! ElKevbo (talk) 00:04, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
hello
Unfortunately those edits I rolled back were not constructive. The mobile user at issue has a long history of overlinking, adding unnecessary year ranges, etc. — and does not respond to messages.

Why ask to delete the Robert Cherry Award Page
Why are you asking for the page to be deleted just because your edits were reverted. You had no reason to remove a large section of the page. Now removing the page is highly misguided! No wonder I neither donate or contribute to Misplaced Pages. Be kind! 2607:FE50:0:6100:606A:9A98:7FCE:4BE1 (talk) 20:16, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
