Conflict of interest
Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Richard Bunger Evans, 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 Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

American composers
Thank you for participating in the article about Richard Bunger Evans. I appreciate the improvements you made, including the addition of the CSU Outstanding Professor down in the article body, the way it should be. (Article lead sections should summarize the body, not serve as the sole source of facts. I failed to do this and you fixed it.)

I added a "citation needed" template to one of your sentences, one that is a remarkable claim. The sentence is:
 * "He was the first concert pianist to champion American composers exclusively."

I would like to see independent confirmation of this claim from a reliable source. If the claim is not appropriately cited in a month or two, I will remove the sentence and the template asking for a citation. Another option is that the claim is modified in some manner, such as limiting it to American avant garde composers, or limiting it to a time frame. In any case a citation is needed.
