Talk:Lyle Goodhue

COI?

This looks like a conflict of interest to me. Almost all of the edits have been made by a user named "Jackson Goodhue," obviously a relative of Lyle Goodhue. 64.149.37.177 (talk) 21:59, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment on the Lyle Goodhue article. There is no conflict of interest here. Jackson Goodhue's minor edits have been well within the Wikipedia guidelines. As you will see when you review the history, these edits have been made to correct simple word errors, incorrect word-spacing, spelling, grammar or punctuation; to add reference note links to Wikipedia or other outside Internet sources, as encouraged by the guidelines; or for a very-minor clarification of the original text.

@Jackson Goodhue: I don't understand why you're referring to User:Jackson Goodhue in the third person: that's your account. Also, you created the article. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 02:58, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

John:

Re: Lyle Goodhue article: Thanks for your comment. I am 78 years old, and new to all of this. I was not sure that my name (rather than "writer") would show up unless I mentioned it in my comment. I am a professioal writer with more that 230 articles published during the last 20 years, and am used to speaking in the editorial "we" in my monthly magazine columns. By the way, it was no secret when the biography was accepted by Wikipedia that I am a relative. I did read the Wikipedia "conflict of interest" policy carefully, and have been guided by it. There should be no problems there; everything in the article can be substantiated. Later edits (links, spelling, spacing, punctuation corrections, clarifications, etc.) were to finalize and polish the initial submission. I am through with them now. Maybe I've been too much of a perfectionist. Writer (talk) 16:09, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
