[edit]Hello, Jphillips05. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but 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 or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content 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. Terrillja talk 15:37, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
I am not writing about him therefore there is no bias. Article is information about the book.

Not Done editing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jphillips05 (talk • contribs)
- Just to let you know that I've retagged this with a more specific deletion reason - namely that the article "does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject". You don't need to finish writing the article, but you do need to mention what makes your brother a notable author (so a press interview, a book review or details of an award he's won). Once that's there, the article can stay. --McGeddon (talk) 17:56, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
This is a legitimate page for a published author. Though not famous yet, still holds a place on a website that claims to hold the wealth of human knowledge.

Reviews: *"Amazon"
- Thanks, but you should take a look at Wikipedia:NBOOK#Criteria - Wikipedia doesn't require that a book simply be listed on Amazon or stocked in a bookshop, it requires it to have been received significant press coverage, literary awards or other relevant acclaim. --McGeddon (talk) 08:27, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
