A message from Molly Kay Martin

[edit]

Hi FlightTime!

I'm Molly Martin, Torben Ulrich's widow. I'm in the process of updating and expanding his Wikipedia page. I added a lot of content and published it so that I could go back and then add citations and links, of which I will have many. I thought it was too difficult for me to track the new text and the new citations at the same time. May I proceed? Thanks!

@Molly Kay Martin: First off, you have a conflict of interest and shouldn't be editing the article at all. All added information to this Encyclopedia needs to have reliable sources. Also, Personal knowledge is not verifiable to our readers or editors and therefore not acceptable. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:31, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks so much for your reply. As a former longtime newspaper journalist, I am quite familiar with conflict-of-interest policies (for us at The Seattle Times, it was avoiding even perceived conflicts of interest!). I should have thought of that relating to Wikipedia, sorry.
As you can see from what I tried to upload, there is a lot of new, expanded and corrected info. Would the Talk page be the proper place to propose those changes, once I've added all the citations and references? Molly Kay Martin (talk) 18:59, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Molly Kay Martin: This page has all the information concerning editing with a COI. If you have any questions or concerns with editing, you may ask at Teahouse. Cheers - FlightTime (open channel) 19:13, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
When I click on Teahouse and then click on Ask a question, it says I cannot do that. I am logged in. Molly Kay Martin (talk) 19:34, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Molly Kay Martin: Sorry (I didn't know of this), the pages are temporary locked from IP and new editors, This page has the explanation. - FlightTime (open channel) 19:40, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I'll try the Talk page. Thanks for all your help. (I am not selling or promoting anything, just trying to get accurate info about Torben out there.) Molly Kay Martin (talk) 19:49, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
