HELLO Heading here, but remove 'display: none;' on row (above; leave just '|-')

In general, I prefer to keep conversation threads together, so if you leave me a message here, I will usually reply here, and leave you a {{talkback}} notification. If I leave you a message, I will keep an eye on your talkpage, but my watchlist has a lot of pages on it, so if I don't reply as expected, please give me a nudge here.

Request for feedback

Greetings BelovedFreak. Many years ago you accepted the role of mentoring me. I never used you as a resource and would now like to call on your assitance.

I am writing a biographical article about a person in a field that seems to rub many editors up the wrong way. The subject is a former pornographic actor who now criticizes the porn industry for its practices and the effect it is having on young minds. He has pivoted his experience to being a self-improvement coach and sex coach for men.

My draft article is in my sandbox: https://en.wikipedia.org/User:Venzen/sandbox

Kindly have a look. My primary task is to establish notability in order to have the stub article accepted and published. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. --venzen (talk) 05:39, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
