Moreover, you removed 'Author: Kiarie Kahurani' lines while you want to add your name into a Copyright line now. Only SUSE was mentioned as the copyright holder when you created the files. This makes me think you might have contributed this as part of your contract with SUSE in which case you are most likely not the copyright holder (even though you didn't use a @suse.com email, but that's not rare some people just keep using their personal email).
