  • Ian Jobling here. I didn't know about your guidelines on autobiography when I edited the entry on Ian Jobling. In my defense, the entries on Ian Jobling and on The Inverted World, my website, were written by other people, and I added little original content. Most of my work involved merging the entry on Inverted World into the one on Ian Jobling, cleaning up the writing, and correcting factual errors.
