Autobiography[edit]

I see from your userpage draft that you are writing the page as an autobiography. I would suggest that you read the advice at WP:Autobiography. --David Biddulph (talk) 12:05, 27 January 2019 (UTC) Well observed, David Biddulph, and many thanks for the advice. I am aware that Wikipedia strongly discourages ego-trip autobiographies, and rightly so. I also note that biographies of some of my former colleagues such as George Taber and John Barron have been published, apparently with no problem. I can only leave it to the editors to decide whether my journalist and writing career can be considered "notable."Wordcobbler (talk) 17:34, 27 January 2019 (UTC)Wordcobbler[reply]
