[edit]

This entry needs more cleaning up, too much minor and unsourced material, more appropriate for a personal homepage. Needs more details about her professional career also. I have made some edits in this spirit, including adding an interesting interview with the subject.Philosophy Junkie (talk) 23:18, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

IP addresses continue to add and restore minor and unsourced material. This is not Crary's vanity page, this is an encyclopedia.Philosophy Junkie (talk) 20:45, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Persistent resumé-like edits and conflict of interest

[edit]

As noted by @Philosophy Junkie above, this page continues to receive large additions by non-registered IP addresses that clearly advance a resumé-like, self-promotional agenda with occasional puffery.

The original article creator @Uhno80 edited this article almost exclusively, rarely attached any edit summaries, and was warned about their conflict-of-interest editing. The CoI edits continue under unregistered IP accounts, still lacking edit summaries. The most recent example (diff) added a plethora of links to podcast interviews and book reviews, not as citations for encyclopedic content but merely as resumé-like promotion.

I'm adding relevant templates to the article and this Talk page to call attention to the problem. — Goffman82 (talk) 02:02, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your attention to this. I am sorry to see the problem persists. Philosophy Junkie (talk) 16:12, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have a connection with the subject of this entry, and so won't edit it directly. I'm confused about the two notes at the top of the article: (a) it doesn't read like a resume to me; if others disagree, would someone be willing to re-write it to suit the requirements of Wikipedia? And (b) I’m not sure what grounds people see for thinking someone editing is close to the subject, but it would be helpful to have suggestions for redoing content so that it’s in line with standards and this worry no longer arises—and so that others can then edit. Thanks so much. Philosophytorres — Preceding undated comment added 23:26, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
