 * I just noticed that you made a major edit to the Eugene Schlickman biography I was developing. I read through your notes. It seems that I ran afoul of guidelines or policies for biographical entries.  Now I understand why you had contacted me about my learning more about Wikipedia editing.  It was not apparent to me that you would then make the edits that you did. I would have appreciated an advance notice of that. There isn't way I can recover the text that you deleted is there? I did not retain a copy in my personal files.  Retiredillinoisan (talk) 15:33, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
