Conflict of interest?

[edit]

If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Mehgan Heaney-Grier, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

  1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
  2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
  3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant 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. Yworo (talk) 17:49, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

You might want to consider changing your username, as having a username consisting of the initials of the article subject gives the appearance that you are the subject.

Since you apparently know the subject and are creating the article on her behalf, there may still be conflict of interest issues.

The article is very promotional in tone. It has too many images. Regardless of the permission given for the images, an article on an individual of borderline notability will typically only have one image, maybe two. Please decide which images to use and remove the rest.

Finally, notability is established by the existence and use of third-party references. Hearney-Greer's own websites may not be used as the primary sources of information. You must use books, magazines, online new articles, etc. for any information or claims presented in the article. If any piece of information can be sourced only to websites published by or for the subject, that information should simply be removed.
