I thought a short bio on an successful inventor was something that would fit here. :( so a) not self promotional b) sharing a brief outline of the work that adds clarity to a business world filled with fraudsters. It would help keep people informed and safe.

Should I add it as a stub piece to the page on social media?
 * Please sign talk page posts with four ~ things (and make sure you are signed in, too). This puts your sig and datestamp on. If you want to create an article, it's best to do it in your user space (say at User:MichaelHBallard/DRAFT - just click and save). So long as you steer clear of copyright violation, attack or real advertising, it should be fairly safe from the patrollers for enough time to get it going. But first, read WP:BIO - not everyone is notable by our standards. Then read WP:RS on the reliable independent sources needed to prove the notability. Not a bad idea to read WP:PRIMER - a good guide to Wikipedia for those who have read bits of the encyclopaedia but have only a hazy notion of how it works. (I'm an administrator, and I'm still finding things I didn't know I didn't know...) When you think you've got it up to standard, ask for advice. In fact, ask for advice sooner if required. I know some very good creators/rescuers (who are more friendly than me), and often willing to lick something into shape. OK? Over to you. Peridon (talk) 18:24, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
