Hello Haralick. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, 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 you, 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. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:09, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Regarding the article about you

One major issues is that the introduction does not establish how you are noteworthy in the slightest. The first sentence of the lead should answer "why should we care about this article?" Also, the article could stand to have more secondary sources. Ideally, every piece of information should be drawn from secondary sources. Unfortunately, many portions of the article do not cite sources at all, such as the last three paragraphs. Ian.thomson (talk) 22:38, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Editing and references

I have added references. Can Ian Thomson check the revised article to see if it now meets all guidelines for encyclopedic content and that the issues mentioned on the top of the article are taken care of. If so, then can those issues be removed. If not, please indicate what else must be done. Thanks.
