Help!
Dear Wikipedia folks -

I am emailing you because I had a major lapse of judgement regarding my wrongly editing a Wikipedia entry about myself. I would like help in making amends.

The site was created by someone other than me. For some time, I was troubled that the site was poorly sourced, although I found none of its contents objectionable.

Approximately a year ago, I corrected the sourcing and maybe some of the text. While I believe I was fair and factual, I am embarrassed by my lack of ethical sensibility. I should not have made the changes on my own and should have followed Wikipedia’s policies.

I don’t visit my Wikipedia page often, but did recently and was greeted by the words:

"A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject. It may require cleanup to comply with Wikipedia's content policies, particularly neutral point of view. Please discuss further on the talk page. (March 2014)'

Is there a way to work cooperatively with you to remove this cloud over my entry? This is an embarrassment that I hope can be remedied.
