[edit] Original Research & Autobiography

Doctor3uk, you appear to be Richard Freeman, in which case your edits to this page should be approached differently. First, Wikipedia discourages autobiographical edits (see Wikipedia:Autobiography). If you are a person who warrants a Wikipedia article, other people will take the initiative and write about you. If you feel you must write about yourself, it is doubly important that you cite reliable, third-party sources to your contributions. Your recent edits are not cited and appear to be original works, which are prohibited by Wikipedia policy (see Wikipedia:No_original_research).

The other edits on this page also seem to be highly autobiographical. I would suggest you leave edits of this page to other people. If you want to contribute information to it, the suggested method is to propose the edits here in this Talk page and let other editors move them into the article if they deem it appropriate.
