Mrs. Hill? No way...

Hmmmm. LBoogey is widely known as Mrs. Lauryn Hill's nickname, therefore it's not a valid username under the WP:USERNAME rules. Though, here's a little test only the real Mrs. Hill would know or be able to find out. Rah Digga, another native of the Brick City, who also sung on The Score, attended my alma matter as an Electrical Engineering major. The question is, did Mrs. Fisher graduate?

Well, just in case: I'd like to welcome you to wikipedia, and let you know about Wikipedia's guideline on editing articles which talk about your own person: Wikipedia:Autobiography and especailly point no.2 If Wikipedia already has an article about you:

It is difficult to write neutrally about yourself. Therefore, it is considered proper on Wikipedia to let others do the writing. Instead, contribute material or make suggestions on the article's talk page and let independent editors write it into the article itself.

However, in clear-cut cases, it is permissible to edit pages connected to yourself. So, you can revert vandalism; but of course it has to be simple, obvious vandalism, and not just a content dispute. Similarly, you should feel free to correct mistaken or out-of-date facts about yourself, such as marital status, current employer, place of birth, and so on. However, be prepared that if the fact has different interpretations, others will edit it.

You can help us improve your article by contributing a good photo under a suitable free content license. The one we have right now, is copyrighted. We prefer either the GFDL or the Creative commons licences.

If you wish to edit your own article, it's strongly advised that you create a new section in the talk page of your article, write about the changes you're disputing or wish to be added to the article itself, provide some sources, and let an other editor include or delete that information in the article for you.

Thank you.
