How do I resolve this ?
I need to resolve this sketch but it is not letting me, keeps saying it did not regenerate properly and a self intersecting part

The revolve will try to revolve the entire selected shape through 360 degrees. After the first 180 degrees it will start to revolve over itself and create a conflict. In order to prevent this, make the central vertical line solid to complete the drawing on the left, and delete the right side of the drawing. Now when you rotate the left side, it can rotate a full 360 degrees without creating a conflict.

You only need half the sketch to do a full revolve.
in order to do that, make the centerline solid so it splits into two faces and you can select one of those.
