Regarding the abovementioned articles, I have tagged the former for giving no context for its subject and for using an inappropriate tone for an encyclopedia. Please read Wikipedia:Manual of style for information on the guidelines for Wikipedia articles. The article does not specify where this Department of Botany is; furthermore, first-person is frowned upon in Wikipedia articles.
Regarding the latter, it appears to have been created accidentally when you were attempting to create the Department of Botany article. If you request on the article's talk page that it be deleted it can be cleaned up quickly.
Thank you for your contributions! -RaCha'ar 13:29, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
