I've reverted your edits at this page. They included a fair amount of supposition ("it appears...", "Jack claims...", etc.) and material sourced to family members, but with no reliable source provided. Given that you share Ryan's surname, I presume that you are a descendant, and have access to family archives, or even family members to interview personally. Unfortunately, these are not sources that Wikipedia can accept because they are not publicly available for other editors to access in order to verify the content.

 * Of all the nerve. I created the page years ago, the guy being my grand uncle. The material is fact I have gleamed from years of research and the images are all public domain out of ancient newspapers. You just wasted hours of my time with meddling you have no business doing. Outrageous. Joseph J. Ryan (talk) 18:37, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Please recall that you do not own the page and you must comply with Wikipedia guidelines, including verifiability through reliable sources. I have not wasted any of your time; you are free to restore your edits if you can provide reliable sources for them. You have not yet done so. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:08, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to John J. "Bald Jack" Ryan, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.
