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, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

Self Promotion
Mr. Sandusky, it would appear your edits have a conflict of interest. Wikipedia rules do not permit self-promotion. In your specific case I'm referring to all the recent additions about your book. I would suggest allowing your book to get published and made available to the general public and another editor can include it if it is notable. These topics are all covered in Wikipedia rules. I'm removing the edits you've made on the topic for now. MartinezMD (talk) 18:30, 13 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Received your reply. No need to apologize.  Adding information is useful but it needs to be vetted in some ways when it's your own.  Wikipedia is a public encyclopedia, so feel free to edit other topics, add referenced information to articles etc.  You can let one of us know when your book is published and it can be reviewed for listing.
