The article ManhattanitesTheMovie has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Movie with no assertion of notability.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

ManhattanitesTheMovie
With your username being the same as the film's screenwriter, it is most important that you read the information at WP:COI. While it is not against the rules for someone to write about their own projects, it is highly discouraged... and such is best left to editors who do not have a personal stake in the subject. That said, I have myself performed some cleanup and sourcing of the article to bring it more into line with Wikipedia's requirement. What is required to properly source the film's article will be news reports or reviews from places that are not blogs or myspace or provately published websites. If the film went to festivals, did it receive awards or praise from reviewers? Was it written up in newspapers or film reviewers? Either leave such links here on this page or post them at User:MichaelQSchmidt and I'd be glad to take a look and see which ones might work.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 19:06, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, RogerNewcomb. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Manhattanites, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Widefox ; talk 09:29, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Hello, RogerNewcomb, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please remember to disclose these connections. Widefox ; talk 09:30, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
