Untitled[edit]

I am Philip Ian McLaren. Within seconds I was dumped on by some at Wiki for posting an article about myself. As anyone who will Google my name can find, there are numerous references that will verify the two paragraphs that I lodged. But I have given the cause with this note.

Hi Philip. The reasons for not writing one's own article are explained at WP:COI and WP:NOTABOUTYOU. I have just tidied the article a bit and provided citations for what was there, plus added more detail and citations. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 06:13, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
