There's a lot of info here, but it's mostly from the program's website. Fuddle (talk) 17:52, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first Wiki article, so thanks for your feedback. I was under the impression that as long as there were 3-5 citations from other sources, it would be enough. Is it a matter of content balance? Should I remove some of the information attributed to the subject's webpage, and/or must I find more info elsewhere for attribution? Please let me know how best to improve it. Goosey2222 (talk) 18:56, 4 June 2020 (UTC)Goosey2222[reply]

@Goosey2222: Others can explain it better, but a good start is Wikipedia:Notability and Wikipedia:Reliable sources. Don't be discouraged. Fuddle (talk) 19:25, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with University of Wisconsin–Madison none of the sources can be used as the majority is primary, 2 others are non independent as well. It can't pass notability for a standalone article but as there are many notable fellows, the program can be mentioned in the university's article. Less Unless (talk) 20:43, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
