Edits to Nadine Kaslow
Hi Dr. Kaslow -

I appreciate the editing that you did to your Wikipedia entry. Completeness and accuracy are important to us and we always appreciate knowing about ways that we can improve an article along those lines. Some of your edits resulted in formatting changes that we don't normally use of Wikipedia, such as the switch in the citation style and the changes to the section headings. Given that, it was easiest to "undo" your contributions in order to retain the existing formatting. However, I did go in and add some of the material you contributed.

I left out some of your material that assigned non-neutral descriptors to your work, like the use of words like "well-known." Per our policy of neutral point of view, we skip subjective words like well-known, good, great, or skilled unless they appear in direct quotes. Basically, as a subject of a Wikipedia entry that meets our notability guidelines, we assume that you are well-known in your field. For some of the new material, we just need to find independent, reliable sources to support some of the statements. Some of it was sourced to a website connected with you, which we try to avoid.

If you have additional suggestions, you might just consider leaving a note on the Talk:Nadine Kaslow page. This is where we would discuss any potential changes to the article and someone comfortable with Wikipedia formatting can make the changes for you. Some people edit their own Wikipedia articles directly, but that is discouraged by this guideline. It's basically an issue of avoiding any appearance of bias or self-promotion. We do want to get things right though, so we encourage you to engage on the article's talk page.

We appreciate your understanding. EricEnfermero (Talk) 01:25, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
