Autobiographical information
Thanks for your contributions to the Susan Coates article. It appears from your username that you are the subject of the article. I encourage you to review Wikipedia's guidelines regarding conflict of interest. If you have additional information you'd like included, especially controversial information, I recommend putting it on Talk:Susan Coates and letting uninvolved editors make a determination of its appropriateness. You are always welcome to correct factual errors, spelling and grammar, and other noncontroversial items. Thanks again, and welcome! Jokestress (talk) 19:07, 5 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Please do not remove reliably-sourced information from articles, as you did on Susan Coates. If you would like to discuss inclusion of materials, especially material about Susan Coates' historically significant role in using reparative therapy on trans children, please do so at Talk:Susan Coates. Thanks. Jokestress (talk) 20:23, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
It appears from your username that you are the subject of the article Susan Coates. You have repeatedly made edits to the article that remove sourced information, alter direct quotations in reliable sources, and remove published papers cited in the article.

Please consider making suggestions on the talk page rather than removing reliable sources. Jokestress (talk) 16:37, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
