I have not been paid to write this Wikipedia article. I am connected with The Boleskine House Foundation SCIO solely as a volunteer library assistant consultant because of my previous librarian experience. My main role is to write to publishers and authors to seek out books and donations for the library. I am based in Birmingham, UK.

I had to conduct my own independent research to write the article The Boleskine House Foundation. I wrote the article of my own volition because I have previously written Wikipedia articles under the training and guidance of User:Pigsonthewing and because I have a lot of experience in research and writing - as a published postgraduate research student and in a previous role of Research Assistant at The New Art Gallery Walsall between 2009 and 2014.

I need to diversify the sources and will continue to improve the article. All this is disclosed on my user talk page User:WendyGrowler.

The Boleskine House Foundation SCIO is a notable topic because it is an official registered charity which has purchased Boleskine House so that it can be restored and opened to the public as an historic, category B listed building and sacred site in Scotland that has been written about extensively not least because of it's previous ownership by Aleister Crowley and Jimmy Page.

update from WendyGrowler

Still very much a work in progress article I'm slowly improving

February 2020: Not encyclopedic and extremely speculative

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Reads like a business plan. This draft includes many instances of words like "plan" and "intends", "aims", ""hopes", along with other terms of uncertainty. It also describes its own informational website in great detail, along with promotional material and description of financial matters which are not encyclopedic. (Encyclopedia articles should be concise.) At best, this foundation might be briefly mentioned in the article Boleskine House, as it has yet to achieve notability, not having yet realized the vast majority of its lofty goals.

Hiya user:Quisqualis thank you for your comments and edit. It's all helpful; I'm out of practice. I'm aware of the problems and have been seeking advice through the tearoom. I will significantly revise the draft in line with your comments and comments from other editors. I'll move it back into my sandbox if that's ok because I am intending to sort it out in line with wiki guidelines and will republish amended draft. Hope that's ok. Thank you I do appreciate your advice and expertise.
