Hey there! Nothing to hide here, I’m the comms manager for CAIL trying to be transparent and abide by y’all’s rules. Thank you giving me the option to post my suggestions for this article here.

My suggestions are factual (not sales or marketing copy) about CAIL, as shown below. Please le me know if this works - no more edits on my end. Most of those names (Harriet miers - Supreme Court nominee, t.l. Cubbage - worked for the dept of defense, to) may have related wiki pages to link to. Please let me know if this works - and please note I trying to work by your rules to the bet of my ability.

I've marked this as a formal edit request, for visibility. 331dot (talk) 21:43, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

KarlaLarraga As I noted to you earlier, Wikipedia is primarily interested in what independent reliable sources say about your organization, not what it says about itself. Anything about what an organization considers to be its "mission" is unencyclopedic, as it cannot be independently verified. Any description of your organization needs to be very dryly written. 331dot (talk) 21:46, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have declined this request because sources were not provided. The editor may open a new request if it includes citations to reliable sources. Z1720 (talk) 18:55, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
