Contributor statement edit

I created this page for my daughter and have not been paid for this work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by drummerdowling (talkcontribs) 16:52, 12 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Please note that family members are not supposed to be creating the article either — whether you were paid or not, it's still a conflict of interest if you know or are related to the article subject personally. Bearcat (talk) 14:24, 14 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
drummerdowling Please also note "An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing" WP:PROUD. There are multiple prominent news articles about Kinley Dowling that will discuss her involvement in sexual assault awareness that you may have to let go of controlling in order for the article to represent the subject.

AngusWOOF Thanks for the tip! I'm going to focus now on adding references for discography entries that will stay on the page. I thank everyone for their patience with this newbie and his first wiki page. Any advice on how to have the COI statement removed or will that always stay in place because of my relationship with Kinley? Drummerdowling (talk) 23:00, 15 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
It'll probably stay there until enough of the article has been developed by outside editors and supported by the outside sources. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 23:05, 15 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
