For searching, readers will come across Karen Davis which contains what we call a hat note directing those looking for the person with the same name to a page listing all the entries. I added an entry for this Davis there. For the categories, they all appeared to be showing up to me. But I did add a sorting template that means she will now show up under D for Davis. You might not have seen her on the first page, as some categories are large and you need to click on the "(next 200)" part to see more entries. On a related note, when putting articles in categories, only place them in the child category, not both the child and parent. For instance you would place a person only in "American editors" and not both "Editors" and "American editors", since being in the subcat means they are also in the parent cat. I think I only saw this once, but it prevents over categorization. Happy editing. Aboutmovies (talk) 06:27, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Scrivattrice. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Karen S. Davis, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • 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.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content 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. Cusop Dingle (talk) 07:48, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
