Editing your own bio

Phillip, hello again. I would remind you of the Wikipedia policy of not editing your own biography. As I've previously stated, it's a conflict of interest. That being said, most of your edits were helpful and better reflected the sources. You'll notice, though, that I changed the number of times you appeared for Liberace from four back to three because that's what the source (your own webpage) states. I also appreciate that you signed up for an account as we told you. I highly recommend that instead of editing your own article that you ask another editor to make the changes for you so that we can avoid conflict of interest and original research, another policy that tends to be broken when the subject of the bio edits his own article. As I've done before, I'm happy to be that editor for you. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 06:35, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
