I am interested in writing an entry on The Wychurst Project. This is an attempt to recreate a Saxon Burh complete with longhall.

The problem is that I am a member of the project and maintain the website (www.wychurst.co.uk). Is this an appropriate subject for Wikipedia? Am I too close to the subject? Should I go ahead and write the article or not?


 * Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia :) You might like to take a look at our Notability, Verifiability, and Neutral Point of View guidelines; all articles must conform to them. There should be no problem with your proximity to the subject if you can write from said Neutral Point of View; this page describes what criteria organizations must meet to be considered notable, this page for actual people. However, note that it is generally recommended that you not write about yourself, or organisations with which you are closely affiliated with. The common saying is "if it's notable enough, somebody else will write about it". Anyway, it's your call - and your honesty is appreciated on Wikipedia, where some people just write about themselves anyway :) If you need any more help, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page.
