One of the policies we have here is not to write articles about yourself. The logic goes that if you are famous enough to require an article, then someone else will write one about you. There may be some discussion of whether the article you wrote about Eric McCowan is to be kept or not. Don't take that personally - we are not judging you or your work.

Anyway, welcome again, and happy editing. DJ Clayworth 21:47, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
