Proposed deletion of Isha Edwards


The article Isha Edwards has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * A promotional article with a conflict of interest. No reliable, independent sources WP:SOURCES to back any claims or that I could find.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * The majority of "reliable sources" may be found here: http://ishaedwards.com/PR.aspx (double click on links) or simply "google" Isha Edwards for supporting information! Information was initially inserted as a draft. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EMeasures (talk • contribs) 03:05, 27 October 2011
 * The sample of links I tried were a mixture of sources which were totally unreliable and/or by no means independent of the subject, and sources which did not, as far as I could see, mention the subject of the article. You may find it helpful to look at the guidelines on reliable sources. JamesBWatson (talk) 08:46, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Explain how the following are not credible sources: American Express Open The Branson School of Entrepreneurship in South Africa Business Periodical, Inc.com Busness Peridocial, BusinessNewsDaily Business peridocial, Investor's Business Daily Clayton State University Newsday in Trinidad & Tobago West Indies The Consulate General of the Republic of Trinidad & Tobago

How is listing Isha Edwards different from listing Isha Judd listing which has also to be edited for neturility since September 2011?

Conflict of interest
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, the username you have chosen (EMeasures) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization or adding links to its website.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you.

Nomination of Isha Edwards for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Isha Edwards is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Isha Edwards until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. JamesBWatson (talk) 09:34, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Conflict of interest and username
I see that, despite the message above, you have continued to edit an article in which you appear to have a conflict of interest, using a username which appears to suggest that you are editing on behalf of a business. In case it was not made clear enough, let me emphasise that Wikipedia policy does not permit accounts to represent businesses or other organisations, nor the use of usernames which appear to indicate that that is what is happening.

October 2011
Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Isha Edwards, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. JamesBWatson (talk) 09:56, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
