Hi Brent2009!

Thank you for your question and understanding. Some core policies of Wikipedia are that articles need be written with a neutral point-of-view and not contain original research, that is, it must be information that has been published by an independent reliable source. I'm sure that you understand that to not follow these rules would put the entire project into disrepute. Part of that means that editing articles where one has a Conflict of interest is strongly discouraged. If a subject is truly notable enough for inclusion, then someone else will likely write it anyway.

While I appreciate that your intentions were good, and I did check out one of your instructional videos, we will really need to await secondary source coverage of your work.

I hope that you will consider continuing to contribute to Wikipedia and here are some links that I find helpful. Cheers! DoubleBlue (Talk) 14:10, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
