Re: Conflict of interest?
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! In response to your message about writing an article about the film festival with which you are involved, it may be worth reading Conflict of interest. To answer your question more directly, you can work on the film festival article as long as you make sure that the topic is presented with a neutral point of view. It is a good start that you are conscious of not wanting to come across as promotional! :) It would be best to stick to factual matters and to back such facts with reliable sources.  For opinions about the impact of the film festival, look for independent coverage.  For example, you would not cite the official site to say that the festival is the most popular in the area.  If you are not sure how to include specific information, feel free to start a discussion at WT:FILM (the central point for film-related discussions) for additional input.  If you have any questions, feel free to respond to my message below, since I will watchlist your user talk page.  Again, welcome! — Erik  (talk • contrib) 14:41, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
