Conflict of interest
Hi Zombat13,

I have done some clean up on Grant Showbiz. Thanks for your contributions there. I would refer you to Wikipedia's policies on conflict of interest about editing articles in which one has a personal stake. It IS permitted, but one has to be extra conscientious about ensuring all facts/claims are well-referenced to reliable secondary sources. Otherwise - recommended form is to restrict oneself to constructive commentary/suggestions on the talk page. There's some further info at WP:AUTO. Good practice is to publish info somewhere else where it can then be easily referenced by independent wikipedia editors. If one has press cuttings etc, the Internet Archive is a suitable repository. One thing that could be looked into is finding a good photo that could be uploaded to Wikimedia under a creative commons licence. Wwwhatsup (talk) 14:17, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Your edit here to Grant Showbiz was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.myspace.com/bluemidnight1983?ac=t)Blue) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link.  Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

 * I've inserted it in the approved Wikipedia format, noting that it is 'official' in the edit summary. Hopefully XLinkBot will be merciful. Wwwhatsup (talk) 03:55, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
