Conflict of interest[edit]

Information icon Hello, Sleboon. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the article Steven LeBoon vs. Alan McIlvain Company, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, please:

  • avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your circle, your organization, its competitors, projects or products;
  • instead propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:55, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notability[edit]

The case of LeBoon v. McIlvain is only notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in independent sources. This is likely to be the case if the case sets a particular precedent or if it has received a significant amount of press attention. Neither of these circumstances appears to attach to LeBoon v. McIlvain. The notability of the case hinges on it being the first of its kind (as your article asserts) and that this first-of-a-kind nature has set a new precedent upon which future cases might be based. But there is no verification that this case is the first of its kind; and because Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, we can't know if it will set a precedent until it is cited as a precedent. Unless you can expand the article to indicate that it meets the notability for inclusion, it will likely be deleted. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:55, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
