Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Harry Palmer (author), without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Given the subject matter and your specific actions, it is difficult to assume good faith, but I will try to explain.

Please understand that Wikipedia is meant to present information regardless of supporting or contradictiong any particular view. Also, some of your information bordered on advertising, or at least not of any value to someone researching the subject objectively. The main problem as pointed out by Ian was that you deleted much or all of what could be considered "negative" even though shown by credible references to be factual. For balance, the presence of facts that show all possible "sides" are preferred and you are welcome to add information to present a different (more positive) view, providing they can be referenced with proper sources (if you can find any). Remember, this is about honesty, not personal belief. If the facts make someone look a certain way, so be it. It is for the world to have the information to decide, not any editor who doesn't want certain facts known because it contradicts their own decided view.
