Hello Joeknapp. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Music scheduling system, 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, 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 you, your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with 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 a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. OSbornarfcontribs. 19:33, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

One must be familiar with a topic before one can provide any facts pertaining to that topic. I am very familiar with the people, places, or things that I have written about. This is not a conflict of interest, it is a depth of knowledge. In the future, I will endeavor to provide reference links. However, in the case of facts where I am the reference source, this may not be possible. Although much of the Wikipedia content is opinion rather than fact, I believe an encyclopedia serves best when it contains only factual information. The many thousands of pages that take a political position on an issue should be purged. Don't you agree?
