I wrote the initial version of this wikipedia page, and I would like to declare an interest. I am married to Wendy Lewis. That said, I did read the COI guidelines before I launched the page, and I think that what I have done is justifiable under those guidelines. I can see that there is certainly scope for conflict of interest, but it remains true that she is notable, my comments stuck to verifiable facts, and I tried as hard as possible to be unbiased. I think I succeeded. Ben Morphett |
needs references about her to demonstrate notability
editA comment was made that the article needs references about her to demonstrate notability.
I would have thought that the necessary references are already in there.
She is an established author (the references are seven ISBNs).
The book Australians of the Year is a notable book: it is the officially endorsed history of the Australian of the Year Award. It was commissioned by and is an Official Licensed Product of the National Australia Day Council; it is introduced by a message from the Governor General and a foreword by the chairman of the National Australia Day Council. This can be verified by http://www.australianoftheyear.org.au/media/?view=news&id=740.
I'll update the site with a new reference: http://www.australianoftheyear.org.au/media/files/vobuuu_Australians%20of%20the%20Year%201960%20-%202010%20by%20Wendy%20Lewis.pdf
