Joseph Fitzmartin
Hello there. I reverted your edits to this article and I'd like to explain why. First of all it was a copyright violation. See Talk:Joseph Fitzmartin which explains more about this and why it had to be removed. Please do not re-add this material. Even if it hadn't been a copyvio, it was completely unencyclopedic and promotional in tone, and had no references to support any of the assertions. Also, by pasting that text in wholesale, all the formatting and references from previous editors (representing a lot of work) was removed. There is more about this aspect on the talk page as well.

If you have any connection at all with Joseph Fitzmartin (personal or professional), you need to read Conflict of interest and Autobiography for guidance on editing under these circumstances and follow the advice given there. In the meantime, here are some other pages that new editors often find helpful:


 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style
 * '''Biographies of living persons guidelines
