Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=608557979 your edit] to Ann Ree Colton may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s and 2 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry: just [ edit the page] again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=edit&preload=User:A930913/BBpreload&editintro=User:A930913/BBeditintro&minor=&title=User_talk:A930913&preloadtitle=BracketBot%20–%20&section=new my operator's talk page].

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Niscience. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 14:04, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

Help me!
I'm trying to correct some misinformation and non information in the Ann Ree Colton wiki page as well as the Niscience wiki page. Every attempt--even when not promotional--appears to be spurned. Do you have a hidden agenda? Jonathan Murro, for instance, had breast cancer that had metastasized into his brain. Why was that removed? It is important to understand his suicide. You allow a very negative comment to remain, but do not allow anything informative to be added. Niscience has books available and publishes a magazine. This information should be allowed to stand. The link was back to the website, but not to a page where people could purchase anything. The word Niscience was given to Colton. It is not a derivation of gnosis. Why was that removed? It is sourced in her autobiography.

 * Wikipedia content should be based on reliable sources that are independent of the subject. If no one but Colton has discussed how she invented the term "Niscience", that's apparently not all that important an aspect of her biography. Also, you added copious amounts of links to Amazon and to her own bookstore - basically turning an encyclopedia article into a "Buy her works here!" link farm. That is seen as promotional, and those edits were rightly removed. Much of the remaining content that was removed seemed utterly irrelevant to Colton. For example, "The statue of Jesus in the pool outside of the chapel was sculpted by Herb Goldman." - what does that tell our readers about Colton? How is it important to Niscience that its second leader had breast cancer? What reliable source even says so? The lone source cited for that paragraph, the LA Times article, did not mention cancer.
