This help request has been answered. If you need more help, please place a new {{help me}} request on this page followed by your questions, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page.

I'm very new to Wikipedia and have been trying to figure out how to "Meet the guidelines" for my Elizabeth Elliott Widipedia page.  It looks like it already has "additional cititions." I seem to be as "notable" as other authors who are listed in Wikipedia, and definitely have as many sales in the USA as well as abroad in languages that include German, Spanish, French, Chinese, and Turkish.  After a long absence from the publishing world I have more books coming out again next Spring and anticipate more people searching for my information, likely on Wikipedia as well as other sources.  What do I need to do to fix my Wikipedia page?  Thanks!

Hi there. Please read the note JamesBWatson left you below. As the subject of the article, you have a conflict of interest and should not directly edit the page. If you do edit your own article, please make sure to always include a detailed edit summary that explains your edits, so that the conflict-of-interest problems are minimized. Instead, I suggest you propose your edits on Talk:Elizabeth Elliott and add the template {{request edit}} to said proposal, so that an editor without a conflict of interest can evaluate your changes and add them to the article. As for solving the problems in the article, you should read Wikipedia:Notability (people) which explains in detail what is required for an article here, mainly more reliable sources. If you have such sources, like journals, newspaper articles etc. that cover you explicitly and in depth, you should propose them on the talk page as described above. As for the reasons you cited, please read Wikipedia:Other stuff exists which explains why another article's existence is irrelevant to yours. If you have any more specific questions, please re-add {{helpme}} here with the question. Regards So Why 18:51, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
