You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Renford Reese‎. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. ww2censor (talk) 01:22, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Renford Reese

I have nominated Renford Reese, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Renford Reese. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

You're not helping Prof. Reese at all

Your creation of the article Renford Reese, while perhaps intended to honor him, may instead have had the effect of subjecting him to ridicule. This is primarily because your edits could very easily be construed as having been made by Prof. Reese himself. They show a knowledge of the subject that could easily be taken as self-knowledge, and it's only because of the detailed biography provided by Prof. Reese on his web page that I can accept that anyone other than him could have written the Wikipedia article.

Autobiographies are especially problematic for Wikipedia, since they often involve hot-button issues such as conflict of interest, point of view, and original research. Because the article looks to be autobiographical, readers might assume that Prof. Reese was so vain as to write his own Wikipedia article. Your use of several different accounts for editing (these are called sock puppet accounts, and are generally viewed unfavorably), if also attributed to Prof. Reese, would sully his reputation even further.

Had you been clear from the beginning that you were a fan of Prof. Reese, had you taken the time to learn more about Wikipedia before you started, and had you taken the advice provided to you (not to mention seeking it out), things might have turned out differently. I hope you will take this as a learning experience, and continue to contribute to Wikipedia (and not just about Prof. Reese).--Curtis Clark (talk) 13:47, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
