Edit problems
Lauren, before you wade in too far: there are a number of problems with your edits. 1) We have Conflict of interest guidelines that you'd best check out: "Do not edit Wikipedia to promote your own interests, or those of other individuals or of organizations, including employers, unless you are certain that the interests of Wikipedia remain paramount". Multiple edits adding Vogue links are iffy for that reason. 2) The style of your edits is distinctly promotional. "You can watch A-listers, including Kate Bosworth, talk about why they love Rodarte - and see the Mulleavys explain the secret of their success" is fine in a fashion magazine, but doesn't belong in an encyclopedia. I've posted a note at the Wikipedia conflict of interest noticeboard WP:COIN, where you might want to join the discussion. Gordonofcartoon (talk) 02:18, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
