I see that you've been expanding the article on David Barrett. One thing to keep in mind is that Wikipedia biographies need to be sourced. I found a few articles on Barrett in Variety and The Hollywood Reporter and added them to the article. Generally, if you make a claim that someone might doubt, it should have a source. Sources should be reliable, such as professionally-written and edited articles. Blogs, the IMDb, and other self-published sources are generally not reliable. All content must be neutral and avoid being overly promotional. Some of the content that you added was a bit too promotional, and I removed it. We try to avoid either overly positive or negative depictions of people, especially people who are still alive. The problem with overly positive writing is that readers begin to lose faith in Wikipedia when it looks like a press release. Try to keep to the facts, and don't embellish them with too many adjectives or adverbs. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 21:11, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
