Please do not add or change content, as you did at Aleksandra Mir, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:29, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi Joseph, thank you for checking my page that it adheres to Wikipedia Standards.

I had added considerably more citations to external sources in the past few days.

Some of of the earliest original print articles written were no longer available on the original online sources, so I had directed them to my own web page, which is what I believe caused the conflict. These are all now removed.

The only citations left are to live external and verifiable sources.

I believe the page now adheres to the neutrality standards and that all conflict of interest is resolved, so would kindly ask if you could remove the top banners.

Many thanks for your help,

First of all, it is not your Wikipedia page, you do not own it- it is the Wikipedia written about you on Wikipedia, the encyclopedia that anyone can edit it.

Secondly, the tags should not be removed until all sources and text has been checked, and all the sources are definitely reliable (which I don't think they all are), and the tone is neutral.

Thirdly, Wikipedia is not a place to create autobiographies- per Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy, you are strongly discouraged from directly editing this article, and should suggest changes at the article talkpage instead. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:17, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi again Joseph, no offence and sorry for using the word 'my page'. You are right, it is not mine at all and I appreciate you pointing this out.

I have been active in my field for 23 years, long before the Internet, and when someone created the very fisrt Wikipedia page on my work in 2004, it was so full of factual mistakes I took the liberty to correct them.

For the benefit of the public, I agree that the information posted here should be factual and neutral, and if I can be of service in providing these citations, I can not imagine why that would be wrong?

All citations on the page are to third party verifiable sources. Why don't you check them to make sure, rather than making the vague assumption they are not?

You will find lots of artist's pages written by their agents, while I only occasionally add citations and sign my name. If this is forbidden, I will definitely stop but hope we can now leave things neutral and free of conflict as essentially we have the same aim - providing fact.

All my best wishes, Aleksandra Mir

Wikipedia has no deadline, and checking this article isn't the most important thing for me to do right now. I or someone else will do it when we have time.

Also, please reply here rather than on my talkpage- I don't like discussions being spread across multiple pages. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:04, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at User talk:Joseph2302. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted or removed.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Please post replies on your talkpage where the conversation is. Do not post the replies on my talkpage, or I'll just delete them Joseph2302 (talk) 15:21, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
