Thank you for the advice - as you can tell, I am a complete novice so sorry for the basic errors. Thank you also for putting in some sub-headings to the existing text on Chris Fiddes' page. Two more questions: If I add some of the descriptions of what he does in quotation marks - as they are based on my many shorthand recorded and approved interviews with him would that work as "self- published source"? Also, if I add back in the current show info and give a link to Northampton Museum & Art Gallery page, where it's happening, would that count as a verifiable source? I have loaded up a few images to my Sandbox but am having difficulty getting them onto the page in an editable form. One is a shot of the artist in his studio in 2017 that I would like to add somewhere near his biog box. The other one is another of his paintings, Party Animals, that might sit in the centre of the text. I may be overstepping the mark but are oyou able to load these up for me please? This is the link: https://www.northamptonmuseums.com/events/event/46/chris-fiddes---challenging-perspectives Sorry to be so hopeless.

Inappropriate content
[edit]Stuff like what you wrote (below) is either your or Fiddes' descriptions of his reason to paint, and his themes. Everything in Wikipedia must be verified by references, or else removed.
"Most of Fiddes' prolific output is driven by his compulsion to visualise acute social and political commentary. All his major works are painted in oils. They range in mood from dark, savage and sinister to frenetically energetic. The common denominator is a desire to chronicle diverse cultural, social and political episodes of the last seven decades through the lens of a self-confessed artistic misfit and outsider."
