Tips and advice
Hi there, I noticed your good faith edits to the MacPhail Center for Music, clarifying facts and adding notable alumni, however I wanted to just caution you to keep in mind Wikipedia's policy on conflicts of interests. While the policy doesn't completely preclude someone from editing an article relating to a school or business they are a part of, it does caution against violations of our fundamental policy on asserting a neutral point of view. One thing to avoid is writing that would otherwise be considered excellent advertisement copy (when found in school/college articles, it's been referred to as "brochure-ware"), because it harms the encyclopedia value of the article. We do occasionally run into users acting on behalf of a respective institution who push the line a bit too far (often without meaning to cause offense), so I thought I'd take a moment and point to those policies before you run into any conflicts with other Wikipedians on patrol. All the best. --Bobak (talk) 17:00, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
