However...

Hi there. Just a note about the decline of your article. You can't just copy and paste text into wikipedia I'm afraid. It could be interpreted as promotion, there are issues with licencing of the text to be considered (even if you wrote the original) but also wikipedia articles need to be written in a neutral, factual way which the article wasn't, it was more of an essay.
