On seeing the name "Keith Lofstrom", I had to re-read that paragraph a few times. He falls into a very tiny set of people who both deserve an article on Wikipedia & also know me well enough to say more than hello.
And what makes your exchange with him all the more puzzling is that he was in the audience of my talk about Wikipedia this summer, & I could have sworn I mentioned the concept of "no original research" in that talk. I do know I've chatted with him a couple of times about making contributions concerning himself, & that it was a good idea for him not to do so. (I even offered him my help in working with Wikipedia.)
So I guess I let the project down by not training him well enough. My apologies to all.
No, I think you did fine - the only edits he made to the article itself was to remove his middle initial from the title of one of the external links because he doesn't use it himself, and since the article's not about him in particular I don't see a problem with omitting that tidbit. The rest of his contribution was to talk:, and it was very good. I just wish he'd copy it to his homepage so that I could actually _use_ it. :)
