Please be advised

[edit]

The article that you wrote and posted for yourself has been wikified, that is to say, it has been turned into an encyclopedic article that is not simply a reproduction of your self-authored IMDB material. The page is being monitored by a series of editors that have raised issues with it in the past, and will ensure that you do not return it to be an extension of the self-authored works that appear on your personal webpage and at IMDB.

I edit several articles by individuals much more famous than yourself, and their articles here have faced similar tensions. Here is the solution put in place for those (e.g., a Harvard professor, and founder of tens of companies): (1) Add references you want extracted, to the Further reading section. Editors with neutral POVs will review them, and if the information is useful and noteworthy, they will incorporate it into the article. (2) If you have particular issues with the existing content of the article, then raise it in a new Talk section, at the article. (3) If you wish to suggest further content for the article, then raise it in a new Talk section, at the article, but only after you provide verifiable sources for the information you want added. No verifiable source, no information added.

In this regard, please note. Wikipedia reports not what is correct, necessarily, but what can be verified in other published sources. If you are reported by the NYT, WSJ, etc., as having been borne a crustacean on Alpha Centuri, under a waxing moon, and the truth is that the moon was waning, you will be reported as having been waxed, until those sources offer a correction, or until other sources appear that have gotten in right. This is the nature of encyclopedic writing here.

So, give us sources, full, traceable, verifiable sources—there is a whole list of claimed sources that are said to feature you, that I could not find, and these were pasted into a Talk section for you. But do not edit yourself, please; tell us where to find good material, guide us in Talk, but do not violate NPOV policies any more. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 04:04, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
