Hi Siolocke, thanks for creating Ottawa-Gatineau Art. It made me realize we're missing an article on the Ottawa Art Gallery, which I have started at Draft:Ottawa Art Gallery. You probably have a conflict of interest, so perhaps it's best if you don't edit that article directly yourself, but I would appreciate it immensely if you could point me to independent, reliable] sources. All the best, Mduvekot (talk) 18:27, 22 December 2017 (UTC).[reply]

Hello Mduvekot, thanks for your appreciation of the Ottawa-Gatineau Art page! I have a draft of an article on the OAG with several reliable sources and know where to find some good pictures for the article (a picture of the building and the most recent logo could go in the infobox, for instance). It's a bit of a tricky situation as I am being paid to create the OAG article (for educational purposes, not promotional), but yes, that does present a conflict of interest. --Siolocke (talk) 18:49, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
