Conflict of interest
[edit]If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Greg Nelson (producer), you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam); and,
- avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. Esradekan Gibb "Talk" 12:32, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi Greg.
I the page blanking at Greg Nelson (producer) to be understood that you want to delete the page again? It was reverted in the meantime, but typically the only significant contributer can request an article to be deleted again if no one disagrees.
Since the article is already at discussion for deletion, I would just let it run its course. If you have anything to add to the discussion though, feel free to leave your comments here.

- Don't worry about it, you did nothing wrong! And furthermore, if you have a look at the discussion here, it very much looks like your article will be kept.
Also, let me say that yours is the most neutral autobiography I've seen written here so far. So keep up the good work, maybe you want to write about other topics, too. One thing though, one of the most important priciples for an encyclopaedia is verifiability, so in a perfect article all facts should be backed by reliable sources.
Thanks & Cheers, AmaltheaTalk 07:41, 2 September 2008 (UTC) - Agree with what Amalthea wrote. Find sources for the awards first and the "millions of records sold". That will help keep things from getting deleted. Banjeboi 02:35, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
