User talk:EnergeticsAnalyst

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. However, I noticed that your username (BreakthroughInstitute) may not meet Wikipedia's username policy. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account to use for editing. Thank you.

Conflict of interest
Hello. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Shale gas on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content 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 a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. -- JTSchreiber (talk) 06:16, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

Use of blogs as references
In this edit to the Hydraulic fracturing in the United States article you used a blog for two references. Blogs should generally be avoided as references. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 19:48, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi Sulfurboy: Thanks for your review. I'm confused by your comment about my username. You say my username is BreakthroughInstitute, but it's not...it's EnergeticsAnalyst. So there should be no activation of any conflict of interest in Wikipedia's username policy, right? I'm also wondering what I can do to improve the citations for Ecomodernism. The draft wiki includes citations from the journal Nature, the New York Times, USA Today, the National Review, and other major outlets. Thanks for any advice you can give.
