Raymond Hanson article

Hi there, and thanks for your contribution to Wikipedia!

Unfortunately, your additions to this article cannot stand as they violate our important content policy, WP:V. V states that all information in an article must be sourced to a reliable source, meaning basically a book or work written by an authoritative source and printed by an organization with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.

I know you claim to be a daughter of Hanson but the problem is that anyone can make such claims about any topic and Wikipedia has no means of verifying such claims, which is part of the reason we rely on reliable sources. What I can do if you like is add your info to the talk page of the article in question, but if it was to go into the article it would have to come from a reliable source as defined by the above policy.
