VCU Art Education

I reverted your edits to Virginia Commonwealth University and turned Art Education - Virginia Commonwealth University into a redirect (it should have been speedily deleted per WP:CSD#A3). General consensus here is that individual departments of schools don't warrant their own articles unless they are truly noteworthy (see WP:N). --Coredesat 01:46, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I am learning to use wikipedia and am curious what criteria are in place to determine what makes a department "truly noteworthy?" 128.172.129.188 17:44, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

One more thing

I read somewhere that you are a VCU student. Would you be willing to meet to talk about your role in wikipedia or possibly willing to speak to my class?

Thanks, Melanie 128.172.129.188 17:44, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
