Edit of Keith Merrill article
Hi,. I see you made several edits to the Kieth Merrill article. In the edit summary you claimed you are Keith Merrill and you are just correcting some information. On Wikipedia, editing an article about yourself or something you are closely related to is considered a conflict of interest and isn't permitted. There are several reasons for this; you can read them at the link I provided. I know it's frustrating to see incorrect information in an article about yourself, so there are are several things you can do instead of editing it directly. You can post on the article's talk page (in your case, Talk:Kieth Merrill) and point out what is incorrect. But most importantly, you must provide a verifiable reference for your information. Nothing that you know first-hand without some sort of verifiable source is allowed in an article. Sources can take many forms (books, online articles, magazine articles, interviews, etc.), but they must be verifiable by a reader.

Normally, I would revert edits by a subject who claimed he was the subject of an article. I'll let your edits stand for now, but in the future, please refrain from editing your article. If you need any sort of help, feel free to contact me on my talk page. Take care and happy editing! — Fr&epsilon;ckl&epsilon;fσσt | Talk 13:22, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
