First of all thankyou for your guidance, although I find it hard to workout exactly what to do on Wikipedia being an extreme newcomer, not only to Wikipedia but to all social media...
The comments referencing my creation of an autobiography will I hope be answered in that I was not knowingly doing so, but rather correcting or modifying what others had written without realising the consequences. My edits were either typo corrections or mistaken additions followed by deletions.
Where I might have sought to provide references to note-worthy sections, there has appeared an unfortunate issue - many references that might be contemporary to the text have not survived the analogue era - i.e. no
links now exist. Everything written is true but how does it become verifiable? For example articles in the UK newspapers about the OneStopFresh deli in 2000-2010 have not survived archive limitations or the sites have gone off-line.
I also would like to comment that my husband Michael Messenger has tried to help in resolving these problems for Wikipedia, but he is not fluent either, and now also is on the 'Deletion' list!
Of course I think I have done some noteworthy stuff in my varied life: I helped myself through my careers and now help others but on Wikipedia, I seem to be being pilloried for blatant self-service - I am proud of my life but there has been no intent to self-glorify.
Please help me through the canyons of content - I can't see what should happen next...
regards

First of all thankyou for your guidance, although I find it hard to workout exactly what to do on Wikipedia being an extreme newcomer, not only to Wikipedia but to all social media...

The comments referencing my creation of an autobiography will I hope be answered in that I was not knowingly doing so, but rather correcting or modifying what others had written without realising the consequences. My edits were either typo corrections or mistaken additions followed by deletions. Where I might have sought to provide references to note-worthy sections, there has appeared an unfortunate issue - many references that might be contemporary to the text have not survived the analogue era - i.e. no links now exist. Everything written is true but how does it become verifiable? For example articles in the UK newspapers about the OneStopFresh deli in 2000-2010 have not survived archive limitations or the sites have gone off-line. I also would like to comment that my husband Michael Messenger has tried to help in resolving these problems for Wikipedia, but he is not fluent either, and now also is on the 'Deletion' list! Of course I think I have done some noteworthy stuff in my varied life: I helped myself through my careers and now help others but on Wikipedia, I seem to be being pilloried for blatant self-service - I am proud of my life but there has been no intent to self-glorify.
