Re: Articles for creation submission edit

 
Dear Formication, hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope to not seem unfriendly, but I'd like to bring to your attention the conflict of interest guideline which explains the potential incompatibility between the purpose of Wikipedia to produce a neutral, verifiable encyclopedia, and the purposes of an individual editor. Conflict of interest editing often involves contributing to Wikipedia in order to promote yourself, your friends or family, or the interests of other individuals, companies, or groups you are closely associated with. When an editor disregards the aims of Wikipedia to advance outside interests, they stand in a conflict. Please review this guideline, and you may wish to also review the notability guidelines as well. Thank you for your interest in Wikipedia, and I hope you'll find many helpful areas!

Since your username matches that of the band you submitted for an article, it is easy to assume that you are either a member of said band, or somehow associated with the band. If this is the case, please carefully review the above policies and guidelines. Thanks! ArielGold 10:55, 1 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
