I reverted your edit because it contained two self-referential redirects and an unsourced assertion. The links to Rappaport Law and Public Policy Fellow were self-referential because that article name redirects the user to Rappaport Center for Law and Public Service. Links that simply reload the page are likely to disrupt rather than enhance the user's research, and so they are not appropriate. Additionally, the relevant Wikipedia style guide, MOS:LINK, advises editors to "[l]ink only the first occurrence of an item. A link that had last appeared much earlier in the article may be repeated, but generally not in the same section." Finally, the mention of additional Rappaport Fellowships for students of other disciplines than law may be accurate, but we'll need to attribute it to a reliable source. This claim is non-controversial, so a blurb on the Foundation's website would serve just fine. Cheers, DickClarkMises (talk) 16:44, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Nicholas Sethi
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Nicholas Sethi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. bonadea contributions talk 08:28, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

License tagging for File:GregRosenbaum.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:GregRosenbaum.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:05, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
