I just edited the article about a poet named Betsy Brown. She seems to be quite an accomplished poet. Here is the possible conflict of interest. My name is also Betsy Brown, and I am also a writer. I wrote the piece "Catechesis" in <ital>Cats (and their Dykes)</ital> that was originally credited to the subject of this article. Therefore, it was clear to me that this other Betsy Brown couldn't have written it. So I took it off of her page. A little bit of Googling made it clear that she had been included in another anthology called <ital>To Sing Along The Way,</ital> a collection of Minnesota poets. I was confident that this was the Betsy Brown who has the Wikipedia page, because the Google Books page identified the contributor to this anthology as the author of <ital>Year of Morphines.</ital> I give you my word of honor that my only interest here is in factual accuracy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.94.123.202 (talk) 01:04, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
