User talk:Usurpation

Hi Usurpation, welcome to Wikipedia!

A few remarks about your first article (Minky Worden): Thanks, and happy editing. Regards, HaeB (talk) 03:59, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
 * The text seems to be have been - at least in part - copied from . One problem with this is that states that content from hrw.org may only be re-used for non-commercial purposes and not for derivative works. Both restrictions are incompatible with Wikipedia's free content license. So additional permission from the copyright owner would be required to use this text here.
 * If you get permission to use such text, you still need to document it. If you are the copyright holder, it is not enough to state that here (as it would not be possible to verify your identity from your user account alone). Instead, follow the instructions here.
 * A second problem is that the source appears to be a self-description for promotional purposes, which is fine on the organization's own web site, but not in an encyclopedia where a more neutral, factual writing style is expected (cf. WP:NPOV, WP:PEACOCK).
 * If you are in any way affiliated with Minky Worden or HRW, please note our Conflict of interest guidelines and have a look at FAQ/Business (especially the section "May I advertise my organization or its campaigns, products, services or leading individuals on Wikipedia?"). Article subjects are always welcome to point out factual inaccuracies on that article's talk page, for example, but creating an article about oneself is rarely a good idea.
