Cunningjames writes: "It is poor form to edit one's own entry. I'm reverting to an older one." This seems to me absolute nonsense. I have edited my own page several times, and I didn't see any complaints. I don't think there should have been complaints, either--what is wrong with adding factual information to one's own page?

I '''strongly''' suggest reverting Cunningjames's revert. If he objects to any specific things written by Steven Breslin, let him say exactly what those things are and why they would be inappropriate.

:About editing one's own entry: see [[Talk:People (style guide)#Editing own entries]] and [[Talk:Mark J. Tilford]] for an answer. It's not forbidden, anyway, and I don't think it should be. And I'm quite happy that (for instance!) [[Bonaventura Di Bello]] edited his own page, because we had almost no info about him at the time.

:About Steven's edits on his own page: I think ''most'' of them are OK, and they certainly shouldn't be all removed at once like that. However, I personally find the word "major" (in ''major IF theorist and programmer'') not neutral enough: it isn't a word people should use about themselves. I also think that some of his comments -- on this page and also on [[Being Steve|the page of the game]] -- about ''Being Steve'' are his own point of view, not neutral point of view. But the rest, including his page about ''[[The Battle of Walcot Keep]]'', seems acceptable to me. --[[User:Eriorg|Eriorg]] 13:09, 2 May 2009 (PDT)
