Your Book
editHi, I don't know if promoting a self-published Kindle book on en.wp User page is allowed, I think it probably is. But you may want to check Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard to be 100% sure. As far as Talk:Oral gospel traditions, if there are reliable academic sources then no problem.

"Editors with COIs ... are strongly encouraged to ... disclose their interest on their user pages and on the talk page of the article in question, and to request the views of other editors."
Thus, I thought that it would be a good idea to reveal my COI. And an easy way to do that is to simply post a link to my book (in which I explain my views in great detail). If it is self-promotion to provide such a link on one's own user page, so be it. Alan B25 (talk) 13:55, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
It's a moot point now. I deleted it. Alan B25 (talk) 01:30, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
