Conflict of interest
Hi Nan, and welcome to Wikipedia. I notice that you have created an article Nan Levinson which is presumably about yourself. I therefore draw your attention to Wikipedia's guidelines about conflict of interest and ask that you make a declaration on the talk page of the article per Conflict_of_interest. Derek Andrews (talk) 11:49, 26 September 2015 (UTC)


 * mea culpa - In reply to conflict-of-interest concerns, I did not create this page for myself; someone else did. Nor have I changes the content. However, I did move it (to get rid of an unnecessary & embarrassingly aggrandizing subtitle) & I did clean up the references/end notes, which were a mess. I didn't realize at the time that that went against Wikipedia guidelines and I apologize. I won't do it again. (I tried to apologize earlier, but couldn't figure out where/how to do it. I hope this works better.) Nan Levinson
 * Sorry, my mistake regarding starting the article. I was looking at the histories for 'your' page and that of Carol Houlihan Flynn (which you started, and it looks like you are colleagues?) and I got confused. Good move on changing the title though. I would encourage you to continue to contribute to Wikipedia, but perhaps on articles with which you have no close connection. Verifiability is a cornerstone of Wikipedia, and when we write about what we know there is a tendency to include material that has no source. Someone has already tagged some of the material you added to Carol Houlihan Flynn as needing citations. Finally I will just add that Wikipedia will automatically sign your comments on Talk pages if you end them by typing four tildes. Thanks again and keep on editing!
