Odenwald (talk·contribs) This user has contributed to the article. This user has declared a connection. (Disclosure made here)
From the creator of the article's name being Odenwald, and the terms such as "my websites", along with facts that are things that would likely be known only by the subject (and not relevant to the article, such as insect collections, memories of early childhood, etc.) I have placed the COI tag at the top, as it would appear that the article was created by its subject. I have started the process of cleaning up this article in accordance with the manual of style, and biographies of living persons. I have left a message for the editor in question, especially with concerns of the conflict of interest when a subject creates an autobiography, and it is my hope that this will not become an issue, but rather the editor will come here to discuss issues, and assist other neutral, third-party editors in building this article, as it is seems to me, to satisfy notability requirements. However, a significant portion of the article is commentary on things that are not ultimately relevant, and will need to be trimmed. Any and all help is appreciated!
