Re: Your message on my talk page

Hi there. Regarding your questions on my talk page about adding material to Leeza Gibbons, I wasn't sure where to direct you, so asked one of the copyright gurus for help. You can find information on donating copyrighted material here, and in the related pages section at the bottom of that page.

Please note, though, that there is still a potential conflict of interest WP:COI here, and you will need to be careful with your additions to her page. Please check out Wikipedia guidelines on peacock terms, puffery and weasel words, which can be found in the Manual of Style, Words to Watch. In addition, the information you add still needs to be sourced. Everything needs to be verifiable, regardless of whether Ms. Gibbons knows it is true. The Leeza Gibbons page is mostly sourced by primary sources (self-published) connected directly to the subject of the article. You will want to use reliable sources which are independent of Ms. Gibbons. Please see WP:PRIMARY for more of an explanation. I hope that helps. --Logical Fuzz (talk) 21:21, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
