Hi Sandy
Hi Sandy. I created the article for you here on Wikipedia. I noticed you made some revisions to it. I have had to remove some of your added content as it goes against Wikipedia's guidelines. There's a couple things you should know. Firstly it's not considered a good idea to edit an article about yourself, or even something that you are strongly affiliated with. Please read Conflict of interest before making any further edits to your own article.

Please also read WP:PROMO. Wikipedia is not the place to advertise where to purchase your books. You can, of course, list books you have written in the bibliography section. You can also add media coverage of your books. For example, if a newspaper or another reliable source reviewed your book, we can add their review to your article, but you shouldn't just write about your book yourself.

Also the link at the top of your article to the Canadian Ice Hockey player should not be modified. Some people who type 'Sandy MacGregor' into Wikipedia may be looking for this person instead of you, therefore there should be a link to him at the top of your article in case that's what people are looking for.

If you'd like to have something on your article changed, you are most welcome to contact me and ask me if I could do it for you. I'd be happy to make changes providing they don't violate any of Wikipedia's rules. Feel free to ask me any questions. Have a nice day. Damien Linnane (talk) 06:38, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
