Conflict of Interest

Hello John, I would suggest you read Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide. Thanks

Hello, I'm not John. But I have noticed your sudden wealth of objections to this article today, which was created by several authors (which I am one) over several years, and has never received a complaint before to my knowledge. Today out of the blue you demand 20-30 extra citations, with the threat of it's removal. And, over things like date of birth.

Can you explain why you chose to make so many demands to this article, this suddenly, when your user history suggests it's not something you've done before? I see one entry for you listed, where you seem to add personal information to a page (not cited, I think I noticed), and then this suddenly.

I don't know of anyone who especially profits from the article (COI ?), and I think it has a good degree of journalistic neutrality when rereading it - it's interesting stuff. Trying to have it removed is not in the spirit of information. If there's something you think should be in it, and have sources or something, then you're free to add, that's what Wikipedia is about, right?

I've had a number of other sources earlier, in hand at the time, mostly newspaper articles, in addition to the numerous articles of journalism cited in the article. But some of these I couldn't find links to online. I suppose they could be linked with more research, and I will try to find the time when I can. But I'd like to remind you of Wikipedia's guidelines of not making excessive, 'hit and run' demands for citations, actually, as you have today. While citations themselves are not an act of 'vandalism', trying to have an article removed this way and without clear reasons, is at best an act of harassment.

In the meantime, could you please stop trying to have the article removed? I know that a graduate student in Hamburg recently used the article for her masters thesis. Interest like that makes me hope that this information is available to others, and real effort went into making sure the information was accurate. He's an interesting artist who's worked with other interesting artists like Uma Thurman and Iggy Pop. This information is pretty easy to find around the web actually - is this a personal issue for you?
