User talk:Tarpaulin

Thanks for your message. I have never edited the page in question but would be pleased if there is any help I can give you with it. One thing to point out is our policy WP:AUTO. As press officer, you might need to be aware of the potential conflicts of interest that might arise from your editing the article about a subject you are closely in volved in like this. I would sum up my advice to you as follows; any edits you make to the page should conform to our policy on verifiability (WP:V), and for anything beyond simple factual information you should seek consensus on the article talk page (marked "discussion"), and probably let another editor put it in the article if such consensus is reached. Please do let me know if I can be any further help. --Guinnog 18:27, 20 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry for the delay in replying. I think the best way is if you can always provide verifiable sources for your data; what we cannot have is a situation where your edits are counted as carrying more weight than those of other contributors. This is because of the difficulty of establishing a user's bona fides on what is essentially an anonymous medium, as well as the potential conflicts of interest I alluded to above. I stress that I personally do not doubt for a moment that you are who you say you are, and will do my best to help you keep the article you are interested in as accurate as possible. Best wishes (should I salute?), --Guinnog 18:40, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
