I have removed the cherry-picked review quotes (very inappropriate here), and the remainder of the article is now neutral in tone. It was almost certainly a product of COI editing, but its content no longer reflects that, and consequently I have removed the tag. However, this article has very poor referencing and no inline citations. It's also more like a resume than a biography. The subject is reasonably notable, although the current sourcing doesn't reflect that. Sources/Articles which can be used to improve the referencing include: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]. Note also that every single one of the awards listed needs an inline citation. Voceditenore (talk) 15:43, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
COI Editing
[edit]Editing by individuals with a financial conflict of interest is a very hot topic at Wikipedia just now, as HLA123 and JeanProbert1981 have no doubt noted. There is a wide range of opinion on the matter and Wikipedia policy and practice towards so-called "COI editors" is schizophrenic. Recent efforts to clarify matters have resulted in no clear consensus in what manner to clarify policy. At one end of the spectrum are those Wikipedians who want to prohibit COI editing and summarily ban COI editors. At the other end of the chart are those who think that with anonymous editing and prohibitions against "outing" anonymous editors, any attempt to regulate COI editing is far-fetched and unenforceable.
Technically, according to current policy, COI editing is permitted but not encouraged, with certain "best practices" encouraged but not required, and banning of COI editors permitted in the case of "disruption" — a phrase meaning different things to different people.
Myself, I advise a 3-pronged approach to COI editing, assuming one is intent upon doing COI editing in the first place, which I do not recommend.
1. Declare your COI on the talk page (i.e. right here for the Matthew Lutton piece).
2. "Commit no spam" — stick to uncontroversial, sourced content. Do not try to treat WP like an ad, treat it like an encyclopedia and adhere to Neutral Point of View.
3. Invite scrutiny — ask one or two established Wikipedians with no financial stake to review your work.
I think a majority of Wikipedians would find that set of behaviors an acceptable approach — but it does remain a matter of controversy. Carrite (talk) 09:24, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
Remove CE tag?
[edit]I've made some edits and think the copyedit tag can safely be removed at this time. Thoughts? Khballin (talk) 23:40, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
