Reference to paid editor

@Justlettersandnumbers: You have added the tag Undisclosed paid. I have not been paid for editing this article. My user page discusses that while I was paid by the Howard Foundation, that was for my time to write the initial articles for them. That had nothing to do with this article. Are you able to now remove that tag? Thanks. Tomp-uk (talk) 12:14, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Request for assistance

@Cmr08: I am a novice at editing articles on Wikipedia. I admire greatly the aims of Wikipedia and would like to help expand its content. However, I have made a number of mistakes and feel a little dispirited. I would like to remedy these mistakes and am looking for help.

I see that you made two improvements to this article and would like to ask for your advice. Two editors have made edits and added tags which I am wondering how to deal with. The second tag is the undisclosed paid one. I declared that I was paid to add two other articles to Wikipedia. In hindsight, this was a mistake. I would have done it unpaid but was offered payment and as I'm now retired, I felt it would not matter. However, I have not been paid for the Ray Cooper article. How can that tag be removed?

The first tag is the primary sources one. I will research for secondary sources but in the meantime, some text was removed for which there are primary sources and so I thought that would satisfy the basic criteria. I'm hesitant to put anything back that has been removed by an experienced wikipedia editor. What do you advise?
