[edit]Hello, I'm Murph9000. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Francis Collins, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Murph9000 (talk) 20:49, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
