Talk:Kenneth Cobonpue

The page i made is very informational and encyclopedic for a variety of reasons:


 * kenneth cobonpue is great representative for asian design
 * kenneth cobonpue is well know around the world of design
 * i also believe that the info given is neutral, informative, and non biased
 * there is no conflict of interest as its purpose is for knowledge and no more
 * there is neutrality towards my subject as i am of no relation to the subject matter.
 * there is also no conflict of interest as i am of no relation may it be professional or familial. the only point of the creation of this page is for the general's public knowledge of good design.

if you could help me with the page i created and define what i need to change, i will do so accordingly.

Thank you and please do approve of my page

i have seen that the page i have created has a conflict of interest tag on it. i would really like to have it removed as the page i have made regarding Kenneth Cobonpue is purely encyclopedic and for the use of the general public's knowledge. If there is anything i can do please do instruct me on how i can get this tag removed. Thank you and good day.

 * The macro is there because you a both a major contributor and the subject of the article. Also problematic is that all of the references are print and not easily checkable online publications. The the article has evolved and most of the work is not your own, the macro may get removed. Stuartyeates (talk) 06:03, 18 May 2009 (UTC)


 * As Stuart has pointed out the COI message is there because the page seems to be an autobiography. Autobiographies are inappropriate for wikipedia. See WP:AUTO. If you can provide inline citations for the claims made then the COI may be removed. At the moment the article reads far too much like a CV/resume and is like an advert. Please feel free to ask if you would like any help improving it. Smartse (talk) 10:47, 18 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Further to to my comments above, if you're looking for a good example of how to avoid the COI, I recommend looking at Jimmy Wales. Just about every claim has a footnote citing a source and most sources are online source. I suggest that you lift formatting and macros for how to do this straight from that page.

I've removed the COI tag - the editor signed on the talk page as "Jose Paolo Konst" and some googling reveals far more spectacular claims could be made (that he designed something for Smartse (talk) 23:56, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
