Proposed deletion of Grace Gawler

The article Grace Gawler has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This hype-heavy article is dependent almost solely on self-published sources (published by the subjects institute) and dead links; contains strong WP:BLP concerns in regards her ex-husband.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hello Pipcornall. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Grace Gawler, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

• Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
• Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
• Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
• Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Nat Gertler (talk) 20:08, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Discussing Grace Gawler

The best way to discuss the editing of the article is on the article's talk page - that way, everyone interested in an article can see the discussion. At the top of the article page is a link marked "Discussion". Click on that, and you'll go to the talk page for that article. You can edit the talk page the same way you edit the article. Don't delete people's messages there, add your responses below them. You'll want to indent your response by adding one more colon before the message than was before the message you're responding to; sign your message by ending it with four tilde (~) characters. --Nat Gertler (talk) 00:34, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Once again you continue to distort sources to promote your personal agenda. You have a clear conflict of interest in articles related to Grace Gawler and Ian Gawler (And isn't it interesting that despite her seemingly obvious bitter feelings towards her former husband that Grace has chosen to retain his surname?) You need to be aware that newspapers can be very alert to whether editors with a conflict of interest are using Wikipedia articles to promote or denigrate people. So if you want to avoid creating controversy for Grace in this respect then I strongly advise you to be very reticent in further editing of any articles related to her or Ian Gawler.

Ian Gawler article

If you continue to blatantly violate the BLP and COI policies regarding this article then I will bring the matter to the administrators noticeboard and seek to have you blocked from any further editing of the article. You have already been warned about your highly problematic editing of the article. Afterwriting (talk) 09:28, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
