Kenneth J. Casey
Hi, there, Marin, and thanks for your additions to Kenneth J. Casey, which I unfortunately have had to remove. For the recently deceased, Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons (BLP) applies, which requires we use only very high quality sources. The source you are using is not adequate for a BLP. This is a VERY strictly enforced policy, exempt from our ability to remove content via reverting only three times, and failure to comply with BLP is something that can result in users being blocked from editing very quickly. The article strictly relies only on BLP-compliant sources, so please review and understand that important policy. Separately, your addition linked to external websites within Wikipedia text, which is not how Wikipedia articles are written; we don't link to the SEC website within text, for example, or the website of lawfirms (which is viewed as promotional and takes Wikipedia readers off site). And you added some information which was already present. So the entire addition was not salvageable. Learning to edit Wikipedia can be a steep learning curve, and starting at a place that involves BLP is tough, so I'm sorry I have had to revert your first addition, and the way forward as a new user is to suggest changes at Talk:Kenneth J. Casey, where I can guide you. Thanks so much, Sandy Georgia (Talk)  17:21, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Ack. And you also copied text directly from sources, which is a copyright violation, a big no-no on Wikipedia.  Please be sure to rephrase content in your own words. Sandy Georgia  (Talk)  17:44, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

I have added paraphrased text about Wallach at Kenneth_J._Casey and balanced the divorce text with other sources at Kenneth_J._Casey. Sandy Georgia (Talk)  19:01, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
