Hello, I'm Shoy. I noticed that you recently removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I reverted your removal of sourced content. Wikipedia does not delete sourced information just because it is affecting the subject's employment opportunities. shoy (reactions) 19:34, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Shoy: Sourced information could still arguably be undue. GridIronFootball: If you still have concerns, Wikipedia:Autobiography § Problems in an article about you has an overview of options. Regards.—Bagumba (talk) 02:56, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

For reference, your request was archived at Wikipedia:Help_desk/Archives/2019_December_13#Deleting_my_biography. Feel free to contact me or again at Wikipedia:Help desk if you have further questions. Regards.—Bagumba (talk) 02:43, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
