Recent changes were made by IP 117.82.228.51 seeking to put the Citadel Cadet Honor Code in a different category. The reasons given were that the Citadel also has an honor code for non-cadets. However, the source material, while it is related to the topic, did not actually state the things that the IP editor has added to the article. I've reverted those changes, for now, pending further discussion. Ewen Douglas (talk) 01:46, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for opportunity to discuss further. I replaced accurate source info in the article as it clearly sheds light on fact that citadel, like norwich and texas A&M, has both a cadet and non-cadet honor code. Something which was repeatedly deleted and called into question, but which is now shown to be fact. Due to this, it should not be in same category as schools which have 100% cadets, such as WestPoint, VMI, Air Force Academy, and even Annapolis (which has honor concept, not code). Citadel with cadet corps and non-cadets corps is in line with Texas A&M, Norwich, and others. NOTE: Previous edits also claimed citadel has single-sanction honor code, similar to VMI, which is false (as covered near end of source in 'punishments section'). Punishments for honor violation at the citadel vary based on severity: dismissal, suspension, reprimand, or even fines, as listed on the school website. Thanks again for opportunity to shed light on this. Source website included for further review: http://www.citadel.edu/root/graduatecollege-current-students/honor-the-code

First off, you should know about WP:CYCLE. Wikipedia policy is to make an edit, and if it is reverted, to discuss that edit BEFORE making the edit again. To do otherwise is called edit warring, and you can be blocked from editing. I understand that you may not have been aware of this. I would encourage you to self-revert your last changes, as failure to do so would be called edit warring. After that, we can proceed with a civil discussion of the problems with your edits.

I’m new here, so please forgive me if I’m off base. From what I’m seeing, it appears as though user: Ewen Douglas reverted edits and deleted references. Is that ok to do without previous discussion? Article in its current form is inaccurately written if reference is current and correct. Please advise...Slaphappy19 (talk) 09:05, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
