Jkuhner edits

I reverted the edits by you on the Jeffrey T. Kuhner page. Not only were the edits largely uncited, but they were also self-serving and definitely non-neutral. If you are the Jeffrey Kuhner referenced in the article, you should know that Wikipedia strongly discourages editing your own entry; if you feel like you must do so, be very careful.Athene cunicularia (talk) 04:50, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, you may want to look at the policy on autobiography (WP:Auto). What I would recommend would be to draft your edits here in the Talk page with input from the other people who watch this page. If you don't want it to be removed, make sure that any information you wish to include can be easily found in your citations. Your edits should also be in your own words, not taken directly from another website. Even your own biographical information must be cited, even if you personally know it to be true. You may also want to make small edits that improve other Wikipedia articles unrelated to you to get a feel for editing, and what is required. The problem is not that your information is not wanted here, it is just that there are standards and formatting that you should know about before drastically altering an article.Athene cunicularia (talk) 00:16, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that you are Jeffrey T. Kuhner. Another editor reverted your contributions to that article, and although the material is welcome (see my comments at Talk:Jeffrey_T._Kuhner) he was right to do so (please read WP:AUTO). Nevertheless, there is much in your version than can be placed in your article if a neutral editor can be found to take an interest in doing so. I'll see what I can do myself, though I can't promise much time, sorry. Andyvphil (talk) 08:38, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
