Andrew Cotter

Hi Andrew, Wikipedia relies on reliable sources to verify information, especialy about living people. Ideally you should not write your own article, but if you are able to provide any more information/sources I will be happy to update and improve.

Ok - have no idea what qualifies as a reliable source and haven't really got the time to go about it, so will just leave it as is. (Acotter (talk) 09:21, 13 September 2013 (UTC))[reply]

News/magazine pieces (online or offline; no tabloids), something along those lines. Giant Snowman 09:28, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
