Welcome to Wikipedia! I recommend you look at Wikipedia's policy on conflict of interest. Adding links to your own works isn't necessarily a bad thing, but being self-promotional on (what's intended to be) a neutral online encyclopedia is! Hope that makes sense! --Midnightdreary 01:44, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Midnight Dreary, I have to disagree in spirit. It's not like I was adding a link to some personal screed of my own. The link was to a PUBLISHED piece, reviewed by an editor and copy researchers. I too am a Poe lover and I think the piece is an important piece of his legacy. That you should disagree is fine, but really, save your gatekeeping for the idiot vandals who want to wreck these pages, not professional writers who might have something to add to everyone's knowledge. Of course, I may very well be in violation of "conflict of interst" policies, but I'm not much for following the letter of the law. I'd much rather be providing Poe scholars with valuable information.

Thanks for adding sourced material to Dave White (author). In looking at the source you provided, I found a lot of discrepencies with the other sources already in the article - different dates and places of birth, states of residence, and occupations. It seems we have two different authors with the same name. I have left a similar note on the article talk page if you wish to discuss this further.  Jim Miller  See me 04:43, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
