Possible issues

Someone looking at your edits to date might want to challenge you on WP:COI in relation to putting an entry in what appears to be a self created bio - so please read it very very carefully - as well as WP:NOT SatuSuro 01:44, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Specifically the first created page appears like a self created biography. Josfritz (talk) 12:59, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Well if you are not either of the people you have just added as new arts - then you need to look at other Australian bios and realise that the detail is over and above what is required for WP:MOS - frequently new eds put in what read like insider CV's - always better to look at other articles to see what you can leave out rather than put in on living bios - see WP:BLP - cheers SatuSuro 03:59, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Re my talk page
