Welcome from Ioeth
Welcome! Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect intellectual property rights - do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view when editing articles - this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account being blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! Ioeth (talk contribs friendly) 21:20, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about, 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 from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, 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;
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam); and,
 * 4) avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Ioeth (talk contribs friendly) 21:19, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Your post about Edward Davenport
I saw your post here about problems in the Edward Davenport article. That wasn't the proper place to ask your question but I will try to help. I'll look at it and get back to you. In the future, use the template here on your talk page to ask for help. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 19:35, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I have gone through and verified the contents of the article. Everything is supported by reliable sources.  Any additional additions need to have sources.  Some additions that you request, such as including a list of celebrities who have appeared at parties, would be considered self-promotional and do not materially add to the article.  If you are indeed Edward Davenport, (which I seriously doubt because someone of that status would not be here looking at such things - but I will assume good faith), you need to be aware of WP:COI and you should refrain from editing an article about yourself.  We have policies to deal with libelous content and the policy on living people is taken seriously.  -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 20:55, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
