User talk:Lordmyners
If you are the subject of the article there is a probabla WP:COI. This would suggest you might like to edit the talk page instead of the article. Kittybrewster ☎ 10:12, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Editing articles about yourself.

Please note that Wikipedia takes issues like this seriously, however we cannot remove correct, well sourced material simply because somebody doesn't want it there. The FAQ linked above has some useful advice and links in it, I recommend reading it. Best, – Toon(talk) 12:52, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
