Self-citation
Thanks for your nice edits to articles metal sulfides. Please read WP:COI. A high percentage of your citations are to your own publications, which poses a conflict of interest. The way to address this problem is to completely avoid citing your own papers. Or do so rarely. I am sure that your intentions are completely honorable, so my advice is offered only to help a good editor avoid potential issues. Best wishes and happy editing.--Smokefoot (talk) 01:16, 5 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi Smokefoot. Thank you for your observation. I am sorry for that - I am relatively new to wikipedia editing, and I was trying to write something about things I know about. But of course I understand that self-citation should be avoided. I have undone some of my recent changes which included self-citations and will be more careful in the future. Best wishes.

 * I was just suggesting that you be careful, because you appear to be a promising editor and we have few that know enough to even publish. Many of us started in the same way as you did (actually your papers looked great), I just want to protect a promising editor.  The main thing that we need are references to textbooks and reviews. So please keep up the good work.  --Smokefoot (talk) 12:26, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Ceria-zirconia, from its old location at User:Sanchogalileo/Ceria-zirconia. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there.

 * Wikipedia prefers citations to reviews and books, not primary journal references (tens of thousands appear annually). Citing secondary sources is the encyclopedic style.
 * Do not cite yourself or your colleagues. It's called conflict of interest.  Many new editors cite themselves mainly.  That behavior is unacceptable.
