Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edit to Bob Layton, as we really appreciate your participation. However, the edit had to be reverted, because Wikipedia cannot accept unsourced material or original research. This includes material lacking cited sources, or obtained through personal knowledge or unpublished synthesis of previously published material. Wikipedia requires that all material added to articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable (usually secondary) sources explicitly cited in the text in the form of an inline citation, which you can learn to make here.

In addition, here a couple of other things to keep in mind:
 * Encyclopedias are written in a formal tone, and thus, people should not be mentioned by their given name, but by their surname. See WP:SURNAME.
 * Encyclopedias are not newspapers, and their thus, references to time should not be written in a manner that is vague or dated, as indicated by WP:DATED. Thus, we should employ specific time references, such as "In 2012", and not words or phrases such as "recently" or "last year".
 * Mentioning some of the people that a subject works with may be reasonable, but we should not digress into mentioning the credits of those other people. The focus of a biographical article should be on its subject. If the other people mentioned are notable, you can wikilink their names, so that readers can go to their articles to learn more about them.

If you have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks. :-) Nightscream (talk) 00:37, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
