I wish to edit Gurpreet_Kaur_Bhatti and the content has been provided by the person who the page is about, herself. The page by itself says the references and citations have to be cleaned up, but since the page content she has provided is over email do I simply leave the info/warning box in the top of the page as such (and make only the changes, per se)?

It seems to me that if you included material provided by a person in that person's article, that that would be a serious conflict of interest. I think the right place to go is WP:COIN, which is the conflict of interest noticeboard. There they can help you a lot better than I can. You probably should not make any edits to that article unless the people at the conflict of interest noticeboard tell you it is ok. Information provided by the subject of the article is likely to have significant bias, or even be promotional, which fundamentally conflicts with one of Wikipedia's pillars, that states it is written from a neutral point of view. Therefore, extra scrutiny must be placed on edits that use sources close to the subject. Please leave the tags in place for now, unless you plan on finding/fixing the references and/or citations for the entire article. I hope this helps!

 * Actually, unless the information she has provided doesn't contain any reliable sources, you shouldn't add it to the article at all. If the information comes with good references, please check that it's neutral and fix it if not. If in doubt, use the conflict of interest notice board or just ask like you've done here. Feel free to post the information you have received if you want a second opinion on it! Bjelleklang -  talk 10:22, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

I have now updated this page with whatever references I could collect etc. The new contents are at my sandbox. There are still quite a few unresolved/unverifiable notes out there - so the current tag on top will remain. Would someone be kind enough to do me a review before I update the main page ? [this will be my first wiki page update - hence appreciate your time and effort!]


 * It looks like a definite improvement to me, but I wonder why you not only worked on adding new references but also added a few new unsourced claims such as that about her upcoming romantic comedy. I'd also suggest you work on the article itself instead of a sandbox copy; then other editors interested in the article will be more likely to see your efforts, give you feedback and be inspired to improve the article even further. The article's talk page is the natural place for discussions on the article's improvement, including your own efforts to that end. Huon (talk) 19:34, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
