Conflict of interest
It seems churlish to raise this since the edits you made were so good. But if, as your edit summaries suggest, you were involved in the production then formally you ought to declare this at the article talk page (per the conflict of interest policy). I can understand that you may well wish not to put your head above the parapet, given the risk of obsessive attention. So, rather than rely directly on your personal recollections, try to use them to find reliable third party sources that you can cite in support of what you say. Of course you may copy-edit for grammar and awkward stlye anywhere and anytime you like, Wikipedia needs copy-editors! --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 09:35, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry but you can't use Wikipedia to write your memoirs. I reverted your edit because all you did was to replace a string of unsourced but at least tagged statements with another lot of unsourced but untagged statements. Anything you add must be supported by reliable external sources, see WP:CITE. At the moment, it is beginning to look like most of that Production section will have to be deleted, which would be a real pity. But it can't stand if could easily be something someone made up at random. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 22:59, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
