Hello
I am so glad that you stopped by to ensure that the article is accurate - and to make copy edits!

It may seem counter-intuitive, but articles should not be edited by the subject of the article. See WP:AUTOPROB.

Aside from the copy edits, there is one sentence that was added that is promotional in nature, but I don't have a problem. Someone else may come around, though, and remove that sentence.

I don't see an issue with minor tweaks to correct phrasing, but if you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. See WP:AUTOPROB addresses this, too.

Please feel free to respond here, I'll watch for updates to this page.–CaroleHenson (talk) 00:19, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
