Dawn bard,

I notice that you have flagged this page for conflict of interest. What needs revising?

Hey Bucky Waters! Dawn bard flagged it as a conflict of interest because writing an article about yourself violates WP:AUTO, which states that "[c]reating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged" no matter how well the article is written. I am surprised that nobody had previously created an article about you as you certainly meet wikipedia’s notability criterion for inclusion. As far as I can tell, you definitely adhered to Wikipedia:Neutral point of view and WP:Verifiability, although you may have violated WP:No original research. For example, while I have no doubt that the date of your marriage and the names and number of your children and grandchildren is stated accurately, it is not permissible to include this information in the article unless it has been published in a reliable source. It is certainly possible some article mentioned that you have twelve grandchildren or the date of your marriage, but it is also possible that these facts have never been published. If they have not been published, this information should be deleted from the article since it violates WP:OR. Also, please sign your posts by using ~~~~ or see Wikipedia:Signatures for more details. Anyways, thanks for contributing to wikipedia! You definitely deserved an article! Cheers! -Bluedog423^Talk 21:06, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
