User talk:Kurt Voss

A belated welcome!
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Kurt Voss. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * How to write a great article
 * Editor's index to Wikipedia

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Questions, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:48, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
Hi there. I see that you've been active on Kurt Voss, which appears to be your own biography. First, thank you for contributing to Wikipedia and improving the article. While we don't actually have any rules that prevent you from editing this article, it would probably be best if you read through WP:AUTOBIOGRAPHY and WP:COI, which detail our guidelines and advice to editors who have a conflict of interest. It's very difficult to write objectively about yourself, and you're not really a very good judge of how much weight to put on individual topics related to yourself. Perhaps the best way you could help us is to list on the talk page reliable sources that discuss you. An uninvolved editor could then add these sources to the article, which would alleviate any concerns about neutrality or conflicts-of-interest. Of course, you are not required to stay away from the article, but you should be aware edits made by editors with a conflict of interest are often scrutinized and challenged by skeptical editors. Frequently, it's easier to simply present sources on the talk page. I know it's a pain, but it helps our readers to know that the article is trustworthy. Again, thank you for your contributions to improving Wikipedia. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:59, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
