User talk:LesTownsend

Hi Lester, welcome to SourceWatch. I'd just like to draw your attention to our policy re individuals posting articles about themselves. I have rewritten what you added and tweaked the formatting so the essence of your post is there. However, if you wish to make a point about content on the page we would ask you to post a note to the 'talk' page (accessed by clicking the 'discussion' tab). Other cointributors can then review and make any necessary changes. With thanks, --Bob Burton 17:17, 12 Oct 2006 (EDT)

Section 1.6 http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=SourceWatch:Policy Groups/individuals posting articles on themselves

We don't encourage individuals and groups to create SW articles about themselves or people or organizations with which they are affiliated, and we encourage people to register under their own names when editing articles already on SW about themselves or their groups. We also encourage people who edit articles about themselves or people or organizations with which they are affiliated to exercise restraint and to defer to other contributors with regard to editing choices that are matters of interpretation rather than fact. When disputes arise over interpretation, such individuals should try to address them with comments on the talk page rather than the article space itself. Users who are overly aggressive in deleting relevant facts from articles about themselves or others may be blocked from contributing to or editing the site.
