Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Materialscientist (talk) 10:15, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Autobiography
Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Lloyd Coleman. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies.

Wikipedia needs to be wp:verifiable. As most anyone can edit Wikipedia, sources of information should be added to significant edits so that people can verify that information. Also, people often want to find out more about a topic. Please wp:cite wp:reliable sources. Unreliable sources are those that anyone can edit (including Wikipedia!) such as blogs, IMDB, personal websites where the writer does not have a stake in their reputation and should be avoided. See WP:NOTRELIABLE. Use of your own memory or own research is termed wp:original research or OR. As it is not verifiable, it should not be used. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 05:34, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
