Hello, I'm
Amccann421. I noticed that you recently removed some content from
Stanton Samenow without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate
edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the
sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on
my talk page. Thanks.

Please do not add commentary or your own
personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to
Stanton Samenow. Doing so violates Wikipedia's
neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you.

Hello, Ssamenow. We
welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things
you have written about in the article
Stanton Samenow, you may have a
conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the
conflict of interest guideline and
FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. ThePlatypusofDoom (Talk) 01:27, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
I am the son of Dr. Samenow, representing him.
The entire section "controversy" should be axed as it was not added by a neutral source.
It appears to have been added by one Mike Volpe (see: https://twitter.com/mikevolpe/status/744164168845135872) who is portraying his biased opinion - sourcing his own biased work. Volpe has a clear agenda, which can be easily determined by searching "volpe samenow" on Google. Volpe has gone to great lengths to disparage Samenow on numerous websites.
Volpe's reporting on Dr. Samenow has not been vetted, sanctioned or published by an objective source.
Volpe should not be permitted to edit Dr. Samenow's page, as he is not neutral and seems to be out to get Dr. Samenow.
Obviously, given my relationship to Dr. Samenow I have a conflict of interest, but so to does Volpe...so I respectfully ask he (and/or his surrogates) not be permitted to edit the page and that the "controversies" section, which he added (and stated such on Twitter), be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ssamenow ( talk • contribs) 03:02, 14 July 2016
