Updated your Published works section edit
Per your request on Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard, I updated Mark Pendergrast#Published works. Hopefully everything is correct, if not, please say here, or on my talk page. (Sometimes asking a specific person directly is more effective than asking a crowd, such as at a Noticeboard.)
Could I ask for something in return? Could you donate and release the rights to a photo of yourself, to illustrate the article? It will need to be a photo you own the rights to (easiest by being the photographer - a "selfie" - otherwise the photographer will have to release the rights), and it will need to be put under a free license that lets anyone reuse and modify it like the rest of the Wikipedia (usually Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike, though there are others). You can use the form at https://tools.wmflabs.org/relgen/ that makes an email that you send to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org that says that you own the rights to the image and release it under a free license; you can either attach the image to the email, or upload it to Wikimedia Commons separately, using this https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard If you also post here, or on my talk page, that you've done this, and give the filename it was uploaded as, I'll try to keep track of it. Thanks! (You don't have to, it's just a request to make the article about you better, not an obligation.) --GRuban (talk) 01:52, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
