Shame on you people for claiming the article was biased!! i really don't think there's a whole lot of negatives we can put on a page about someone who runs his own charity and was elected young Australian of the year!!! Seriously......

Awards

edit

I removed the 'awards' section, I don't see how this can be biased anymore? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by LittleMissDisaster (talkcontribs) 01:32, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Awards restored and given substance. Rangasyd (talk) 09:09, 14 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

COI - ConcernedVancouverite

edit

The article's aim is to "produce a neutral, reliably sourced encyclopedia".

There are 4 references, but only 1 reference stands true: 1 reference is from the GPP site which he founded so that doesn't count. 1 reference is from his mate, Moss, S et al. (2008) 'Oaktree Overview' who also worked in the company. So 1 reference is notable after a 9 paragraph article.

I note that Ausstory2000 and 131.111.196.202 are the 'main' editors of this article as well and their accounts have gone as well.

So that is why, ConcernedVancouverite, you night be mistaken in removing the COI tag. Please re-instate the COI tag. Thanks. Domenico.y (talk) Domenico.y —Preceding undated comment added 18:46, 27 September 2011 (UTC).Reply

I removed much of the content in question per WP:SOURCE, WP:BLP, and WP:N. I also removed some other content out of sheer irrelevance. The issue is rather moot unless you intend to restore the text. FYI, there's no indication any content had been written by the subject (Hugh Evans), or anyone particularly close to him, or by a member of one of his organizations. It seems reasonably likely Ausstory2000 is an Australian, but what else can you tell? Even if the editor and IP you mention are the same individual (a bad editing practice), they would have to be the subject or associated in some way to have a WP:COI. So while there are/were serious sourcing and notability issues, it's not a conflict of interest. JFHJr () 23:58, 27 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
JFHJr has described it well to you here as to why it is not a conflict of interest. As you will note, JFHJr's explanation is similar to the one you received on your talk page as well to a similar question [1]. I hope you understand the conflict of interest guidelines now that the question has been answered for you in multiple locations. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 04:22, 28 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
