What about controversial material and original research?
===But I'm here to bring you The Truth!===
If you have an agenda to push, no matter how true you believe it to be, you are probably not in the right state of mind to write an encyclopedia. Calm down, drop your pet theories or grievances, and come back to the wiki when you're ready to write an encyclopedia.
 
===But this article is about me!===
In the interests of producing a neutral-as-possible Orthodox encyclopedia, it's generally a good rule of thumb not to edit articles about which you are the subject. Experience shows that it's nearly impossible to be objective in such a context.
 
If you're notable enough that your work and/or person ought to be covered in an encyclopedia article, other editors will take care of it. If they don't, humility ought to drive us all not to bring ourselves into the spotlight.
 
If you believe that an article which mentions you is in error, you may indicate this on the article's Talk page to ask another editor to correct the error. (If the subject matter is controversial, see above.)
