  • I encourage you not to rewrite this article. It was blatant advertising. Wait until someone else writes up your bio. If you really think that you are allowed to write an article about yourself, raise the matter at WP:DRV. (You antagonise people before they have even loaded the article by putting peacock terms in the title. What was wrong with Pegine Echevarria as the title?) -- RHaworth 16:42, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
