Hello, I'm Girth Summit. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Phil Villapiano, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Also, I note a similarity between your username and the surname of the subject of this article - if you have any connection to them, WP:COI applies, and you should make edit requests on the talk page rather than edit the article directly.

Hi. I’m Phil’s daughter and it came straight from the source (my dad) AVilla41 (talk) 19:55, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi - thanks for confirming. I'm afraid that our policy on verifiability means that any information we put into articles needs to come from a reliable published source. In other words, our aim isn't to write what we know, it's to collect information from published sources - even if that means leaving stuff out. Since you are related to the subject of the article, you clearly have a COI, and should not edit it directly - you can however make edit requests on the article talk page, provided you note your relationship with the subject when you do so. Thanks Girth Summit  (blether)  22:21, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Just to inform you, I reverted your changes again. If you can find this information in reliable, published sources, please go ahead and make an edit request on the talk page - you can ping me when you do so, and I'll make the edit for you (in a manner which complies with our manual of style, which your edits did not). Please do not reinstate your edits again - as well as the COI issues, you should be aware of our edit warring guidelines - if your edits are reverted, you are encouraged to discuss them, not simply reinstate them, following our bold/revert/discuss cycle.
