Re book about Barbaro. It appears you are actually Alex Brown and using a different account to do edits is being a sockpuppet. While the book appears notable on its own merits, adding it yourself is frowned upon. If you are not Alex Brown then I apologize. I am not a senior editor just a fellow Wikipedian. Happy Editing.

AH! Now I see. Nope, I'm not Alex! However, after his listing of the book was removed, I did add it because it seemed that adding one's own book was self-promotion, but if someonelse who thought the book was notable added it, then that was a legitimate endorsement. The thing is, how would I prove that I'm not Alex without having to basically put out all my personal information on wikipedia for other people to judge me?

The misunderstanding has been resolved. Thank you Daffydavid for starting this page and explaining the rationale. On the Barbaro talk page I was able to explain why I added the reference. I'm quite encouraged by the professionalism, thank you! SouthernFox (talk) 22:14, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Glad I was able to help. 1 tip, threading. Look at this edit to see how. Happy Editing! Daffydavid (talk) 05:23, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
