editThe content you restored to Vanessa Lawrence has been removed again, as it does not adhere to the tight standards of WP:BLP. Content on living people on Wikipedia must especially be rigorously sourced to high quality standards. Material must be offered in due balance to what reliable sources say and must accurately reflect what those sources say.
For instance, the sentence "Whilst the report gained some traction at the federal level, this was not the case at state level and with industry, as reported in the state Government of Victoria official quarterly geospatial journal "Landmark"." seems at odds with the cited source, which discusses her research at pp. 6-7. It wasn't even finished yet ("Although she is still finalising her work"; "It seems likely that Lawrence might opt"), much less receiving response from industry. While that source could be used to verify Lawrence's work on the document, it cannot be used to assert any reception to the document.
Most of the other offered sources are simply links to entities: http://www.psma.com.au/; http://www.psma.com.au/about-psma/our-staff/; http://www.siba.com.au/. Lawrence and the report are not mentioned at any of them. They cannot be used to substantiate the claims made in the text.
The final link is a comment on LindedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/grp/post/2663732-107931972. This is not acceptable as a source on Wikipedia.
In addition to WP:BLP, please see our policies on verifiability and neutrality, our guideline on how to identify a "reliable source" and our policy forbidding synthesis and original research.
If you believe the article does not in fair balance represent what reliable sources have said about Lawrence's career, you are welcome to build the article but must use reliable sources in doing so.
If you have questions, please take them up at the talk page of the article but do not restore the content removed from the article unless you are able to provide sources that meet our policies and guidelines. Adding poorly sourced, contentious material to biographies is a serious concern on Wikipedia and may lead to sanctions against accounts that do so repeatedly or locking down of articles to prevent editing.
If you have general questions about Wikipedia, please visit the Wikipedia:Teahouse, which is meant to be a welcoming environment for newcomers. There, they can answer general questions about sourcing and neutrality and editing on Wikipedia. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:12, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Mdann52 (talk) 15:14, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you. — MusikAnimal talk 19:06, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
Block caution
editYour edits are a violation of our biographies of living persons policy, and I will block you to enforce that policy if you restore that content again unless somebody else does it first. I have explained to you in great detail why the content is against that policy. If you disagree, you may take up the matter at the article's talk page or at the biographies of living person's noticeboard, but unless you get consensus of editors the content may not be restored. You must adhere to the policies I linked above if you wish to contribute to this or any other article on Wikipedia. Every source you use must meet our policies and must directly and explicitly support material you add. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:47, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
