Your username

Hello there. If you're actually Kevin Warwick, you should take a look at WP:AUTO#IFEXIST before editing the Kevin Warwick article any further. If you're an interested but unconnected party, you arguably have a misleading username and should probably change it - see WP:UNC for how to do that. Let me know if you have any questions. --McGeddon (talk) 16:00, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the pointer. I have mainly been trying to fix some dead links/references as there was criticism of data being incorrect. If you can help with that it would be great. KWcyborg (talk) 16:10, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Fixing obvious errors is fine, but adding new paragraphs describing your own work is inappropriate, as you're not the best person to give a neutral description of it, and you're only giving us a primary source. If there's anything you want to see added, just raise it at Talk:Kevin Warwick and let another editor handle it. The essays at WP:COIADVICE and WP:AUTOPROB have some more advice on this. --McGeddon (talk) 16:21, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Fully understand. I will stick to fixing links where appropriate. Whilst you're on - What can be done with material on the page where there is a POV at play? For example there are two statements on the page referring to questions regarding academic rigour, yet none of the references contain any such wording, see refs 11 and 12? KWcyborg (talk) 16:27, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

The list at WP:COIADVICE allows you to "remove content that unambiguously violates the biography of living persons policy" - you're welcome to remove any claims about you which are plainly unsourced or poorly sourced. Having checked the sources "rigour" is perhaps a small leap from what's said, so I'll go ahead and edit it myself. --McGeddon (talk) 17:20, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

That's better - thank you. But re the POV, if you look at reference 11 it is actually pretty balanced with points both for and against. e.g. One quote states - Professor Warwick's work is very profound - yet this is not reflected on the page (in that section) - We are looking here at a statement in the opening section which refers solely to criticism whereas the references given show support as well KWcyborg (talk) 18:42, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

This is starting to get subjective - I'd recommend following WP:AUTOPROB, and starting by raising your concerns at Talk:Kevin Warwick. --McGeddon (talk) 08:27, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
