Hello and thank you very much for making an edit request due to your conflict of interest. Unfortunately, I don't believe this is neutrally worded which Wikipedia articles must be per WP:NPOV. You don't give a good explanation either for deleting sourced information already in the article. Before taking a stab at editing, maybe check out similar articles to see how articles are written on Wikipedia. For example, Ruth Bader Ginsburg is considered a "good article" on Wikipedia meaning it is "well written, contain factually accurate and verifiable information, are broad in coverage, neutral in point of view, stable, and illustrated, where possible, by relevant images with suitable copyright licenses." (Wikipedia:Good articles). HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 05:33, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

I would add an additional point that the proposed changes here are unreferenced. I've added some search suggestions to the top of the page which might help with finding references for this individual. Also, the section header states "Remove all current content" yet the content which is to be removed is not stated. In the future, requests should contain the following three elements:

"Please change X to Y using Z."

X	Y	Z
A verbatim description of the old text coming out of the article.	A verbatim description of the new text going into the article.	A reference which verifies the change.

Please feel free to open a new edit request which makes use of these three elements at your earliest convenience. Thank you!  spintendo  07:14, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
