[edit]

Hello Nicole Voight. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Taylor Humphries, 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, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with 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 a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. (talk) 08:32, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fanbase

[edit]

Wikipedia does not consider sites such as fanbase.com with user-editable content to be reliable sources. For example, we don't consider IMDb to be a reliable source. You yourself added the information to fanbase. Where did you get it? How do we verify it? A reliable source in this case would be a newspaper or magazine article.

Publicist

[edit]

A subject's publicist has no special rights on Wikipedia. In fact, our conflict of interest policy says the people connected with the subject, especially those who are employed by the subject, should not edit the article at all. Your function is to publicize and promote. That is not Wikipedia's function, which as an encyclopedia is to summarize the publicly available information about the subject in existing reliable third-party sources which are independent of the subject.
