Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Drhallowell. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Edward Hallowell (psychiatrist), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
 * instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the request edit template);
 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the 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 which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Melcous (talk) 05:50, 5 August 2017 (UTC)

Editing the page about you
Hello Dr Hallowell. As the notes above outline, you should not be directly editing the article about yourself, and you certainly should not be simply copying and pasting content from your own website as you did here. I understand that another editor has continued to include content in the article that seems potentially disparaging and there are things in the article you wish to dispute, but this is not the way to go about it. I have removed some content from the article in an attempt to make it neutral. If there is information that you believe is incorrect, or things missing from the article, would you please clearly explain what these are on the article's talk page and provide independent, secondary references to verify this. Thank you, Melcous (talk) 22:50, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
