How does X work?[edit]

I'm not clear what is going on here (see below). The other day I offered a massive revision of the brief paragraph you see below. It is, in fact, my intention to see that old entry vanish, and be replaced by the one I wrote. This is all about a bio, and I am the person the bio is about. (I don't know who wrote the old bio.) So, I hope, after 7 days, the existing bio goes away, but will my bigger and more complete bio replace it? It has vanished into the depths of Wikipedia. Thanks for a tip.
