[WikiEN-l] Articles about ourselves

There are verifiable facts about me, news reports and what-not, but I
would prefer if there were no article about me, as a matter of modesty
and good taste.  I don't see any reason for us to have a hard-and-fast
rule about this, but would like to encourage a social meme of similar
modesty from other contributors.

At a very minimum, it seems most tasteful for anyone about whom we do
have an entry to recuse themselves from working on it.
