Modifying your own Biography
[edit]Hi, I saw that you have been doing some edits to the article Steve Alten, including praise reviews of your work. In general, we highly discourage people from writing about themselves on Wikipedia, because its hard to write with a Neutral Point of View. However, we do want the information in your biography to be correct and accurate. I would highly recommend reading the Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide which should outline how to best approach improving your biography page! Thanks for contributing, and I hope we keep seeing you around on Wikipedia! Sadads (talk) 15:04, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
