Hello Wiki10writer. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Darragh MacAnthony, you may have a conflict of interest, or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * 1) Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * 2) Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * 3) Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * 4) Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

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

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Oldelpaso (talk) 19:06, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I have reverted the majority of your edit to Darragh MacAnthony, as it removed referenced material and simultaneously added unreferenced material, in an apparent attempt to paint a deliberately flattering picture of its subject. Additions or changes to articles must be verified by citing reliable sources. While Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living people advocates the removal of unsourced negative material, most of the material you removed was sourced to the non-tabloid mainstream press, and presented appropriately.


 * To describe MacAnthony as a philanthropist, we would need an independent source describing him as such, but the only sources I can find are press releases from ventures he has a stake in. The fortunes of Peterborough United under MacAnthony's chairmanship are already in the article, including the promotion in the most recent season. As for the source describing his residency, if it is out of date and you have a more recent source, please feel free to add it. Oldelpaso (talk) 20:04, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
