Re Clive Hamilton

[edit]

Hi donama, I sent you an email, but I'm going to repaste it here just in case: Hi Donama, this is in regards to the Clive Hamilton page. Thank you for reverting to the previous info and taking out links to the (biased) piece of text I removed. I haven't done a lot of Wiki editing before, and though I wrote one article I'm not really fluent in the coding and html-ing that's involved in setting up a page. This particular page is of interest to me because I'm a fan of his work, but I don't want that to be reflected as a bias that would undoubtedly come through if I tried to add pertinent info, so I'm hoping you can help me update some of the info on this page. I recently exchanged emails with him, and he enclosed what is, essentially a resume, with a complete employment history along with all publications, schooling, and positions held. I don't know if this would be of any use, but I can forward the document if it's useful. He also included a preview of a new documentary in the works about his views:http://vimeo.com/16105870 I'm hoping you can help me out and make this page a little more complete, accurate, and balanced. Since he's involved in such a contentious subject, it seems likely that people who are strongly opinionated in regards to his work should maybe not have the final say on his page- that includes me. I can forward the document he sent me if it will help- there's also a good "about" page on his website that's not quite as complete, but has more than the Wiki page. http://www.clivehamilton.net.au/cms/index.php?page=About Thanks for your excellent Wiki-work.

Hi Esmerelda, thanks for your info on Clive Hamilton. Even though you acknowledge your bias on the topic of Hamilton, do feel welcome to edit and add additional information as long as you can provide a citation (see WP:CITE) from a reliable and verifiable (see WP:VERIFY) source. Please note that his CV that he emailed you is not a valid source because it is a primary source (see WP:SECONDARY) but in Wikipedia only secondary and tertiary sources should be used (except in some rare cases). Please also note that if you did put information from his CV and couldn't back it up with some secondary source citation it would be considered "original research" which is explicitly not allowed on Wikipedia (see WP:OR). Hope that helps and is not too much to take in in one go! No one is going to be upset if you make a mistake so don't let the detail put you off of editing. You'll be surprised how quickly you'll get the hang of it. Feel welcome to ask questions on my talk page if needed. Cheers, Donama (talk) 00:28, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
