Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~~~~). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! --FloNight talk 23:57, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:AUTO
You might wish to reconsider editing the article as you have a vested interest in its presentation. Your role would be best were it one in which you questioned on the talk page those items you feel are incorrect. The policy is as follows:
WP:AUTO says "You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest." The point is editors are discouraged, but not prohibited, from editing articles of their employers.
The reasons for this can be found in WP:NPOV.
Thank you. •Jim62sch• 21:52, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
