Hi, your article page is lacking in secondary sources. Since you appear to be the topic of the article you are perhaps in the best position to find reliable secondary sources. If you leave links here or in the talk page of the article I can (picking those which are reliable) improve the article. IRWolfie- (talk) 10:10, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, were you referring to the article on Reflexive Monism? If so, in response to your suggestion, I have added a few more details to the end of the article along with a reliable secondary source

It's the article on yourself I am referring to, there is a lack of reliable sources that are independent from you. See WP:RS for more details of what sources are acceptable. IRWolfie- (talk) 12:46, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

References

Hi, like the other editor above, please can you find references that are from others, rather than yourself. The standard here is not to have articles purely based on primary sources, so I have marked the three articles as such. As a WP:COI editor feel free to add references from others. Thanks Widefox (talk) 12:29, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Max Velmans. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Peacock (talk) 18:11, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
