Autobiography problems
Hello again. I have reverted your addition of religion categories to Reed Cowan. I did this for a few reasons:

First, there is no reliable source in the article explaining your religion (WP:EGRS). Wikipedia is NOT a good place to make declarations about such things. Because anybody can edit, we need sources outside of Wikipedia, especially for biographies of living people WP:BLP.

Second, Wikipedia doesn't ask people to verify their identities before editing. We have no way of knowing if you are who you say you are, so again, this info needs to be supported by reliable sources.

Third, I would recommend using extreme caution when editing a page about yourself (WP:AUTOBIO). It's generally regarded as a bad habit. Fixing obvious vandalism is always okay, but if you have other concerns about the article, the best practice is to discuss them at the article's talk page: Talk:Reed Cowan. If it's urgent and you need administrator assistance, you can post a message to Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. I hope this info is helpful. Thanks, Grayfell (talk) 21:53, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
