Working within Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines
If you edit your own biography or if you use your own writings as a cited source in articles about Iran or about the United Nations, please read Wikipedia's guidelines which address editors who have a conflict of interest.

For editing your own biography, see Autobiography. The relevant section "If Wikipedia already has an article about you" says that editing about oneself is difficult to accomplish while staying neutral and objective. Positive material is often emphasized with negative material removed or marginalized. That said, editing one's own biography is allowed, with restrictions.

At Conflict of interest, the section about Photographs and media files actually encourages autobiography editors to upload useful media such as photos. Naturally, you would be the editor with the best access to photographs of yourself!

An essay about how to work with the rules can be found at Suggestions for COI compliance. This is not an official guideline but it is wise advice. Good editing! Binksternet (talk) 21:03, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
