Conflicts and your username
Welcome to Wikipedia. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

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

Also - per our username policy - we want to ensure that somebody is not trying to impersonate you. You are welcome to use your real name, but you will need to prove you are who you say you are. You can do this by sending an e-mail to [mailto:info-en@wikimedia.org info-en@wikimedia.org]; be aware that the volunteer response team that handles e-mail is operated entirely by volunteers, and an immediate reply may not be possible. 7 08:22, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I have sent an email verifying my identity. I will also happily provide the appropriate documentation for my decision to eliminate the paragraph from "Criticisms of Fractional Reserve Banking". The page in my book that was cited in the deleted material was my discussion of the views of 100% reserves defenders (FRB critics) which I then went on to CRITICIZE. I have no idea, other than either deliberate misrepresentation or very poor reading skills, how the original editor could have included me in the critics of FRB.

 * Thank you for the quick followup. You may wish to place a copy of the OTRS note left above onto your user page to let future editors know that this has already been reviewed.  Thanks.   7  14:52, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
