Clarification on edit, that was removed by you !Hi, NeilN, First of all it is really great to know that I am communicating with a human The Link I added was just an Directory that can can give an idea about escort agencies and how do they operate there Business. I found few links in that directory that that explains how they operate and what they offer, and that is why I create that link. I am planning to write a article on Prostitution and its effect on society and previous practice was just a part of that. Hope you can understand my point.

Seems that the reverts back to their original titles were considered controversial by the administrator who was to perform the reverts. Steel1943 (talk) 23:34, 4 March 2014 (UTC) self-importanceYour claim that my writing was: "...self-congratulatory puffery" --NeilN talk to me 01:39, 4 March 2014 (UTC)" is untrue. First, I was not speaking about myself and was not involved in the Street Artists Movement. In additional this has been documented in numerous newspaper accounts that the original artists practiced passive civil disobedience. Your actions appear devoid of the scholarly method, immature and reckless that you would delete something you know nothing about, have not researched and have apparently not read the article. --- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Inquiringmindswanttoknow (talk • contribs) 23:38, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

User:ApokryltarosAre you sure "Mr Fink" is a legitimate alias? It's not mentioned on [User:Apokryltaros|his user page]. Where has he used it outside of that debate? I think something might be amiss here. InternetMeme (talk) 14:01, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
Fair enough, but it's not my job to go looking up the all the aliases people elect to use. If he wants to use an alias, he should include it on his talk page. If his talk page lists different aliases, then it looks suspicious. In fact, it still looks suspicios: Why is he using four different names (Apokryltaros, Mr A, Mr Fink, and Stanton)? That is not at all appropriate for an editor involved in debates. This is one step away from WP:SOCKPUPPET. InternetMeme (talk) 14:17, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

For example, removing Jim Woolsey from my article is perhaps the best thing you could have done for me. I have constantly throughout the time this article has existed been associated with the CIA when in fact Jim, who is an old friend, simply served on my company's board for a number of years. The fact that this was ever mentioned in the article was designed to link me with the Neocon movement, of which Jim is an acknowledged member, and to link me with the CIA, which is absolutely false. But if you are going to remove what you refer to as a name-dropping infraction (all I did was tidy up someone else's reference, I never added it to the article), then could you at least either delete the last sentence of the first intro paragraph, or barring that, properly add in Amb. Woolsey's name and wikify it? With regard to the edit dispute about the Formula One section, the issue there is as follows -- I agree that it is a convoluted section describing a business transaction that has not yet concluded and is quite complex and drawn out. So it is fair game to be deleted wholesale. But it is a material matter in my biography, just as Memogate was, just as Sudan and Kashmir were. To remove it wholesale after having it be part of the article for nearly a year now makes it appear as if you have some knowledge that the F1 deal with Lotus does not exist anymore, and that is both factually false and currently and significantly misleading. Is there no room for middle ground? Can I suggest a way to do that, or is that forbidden? Thirdly, with respect to the COI tag, I created my own USER ID in my name so there would be no ambiguity about my contributions to the page. I did so after receiving that advice from three different Wikipedia editors as a way to manage disruptive editing and vandalism of the article. That I added relevant biographical materials in the most neutral way possible, I do not see where I did anything wrong. I strongly object to any insinuation that I have somehow made the article less neutral. And I also object to the Red Pen complaint that somehow the people of public note with whom I had material interactions throughout my life are now to be deleted wholesale because it embellishes my record. I did those things stated. And with the people involved, good bad or indifferent. Does it now show editorial bias by the three of you who have taken the article apart, and I am sure will make more edits in the coming hours and days, by making edits that do not even consider a third point of view on how it might better be done. It is clear that you are all aiming to block me from editing in Wikipedia, so I won't enter into any editing again. But I thought I should at least point out some of the issues that your editing has raised which make the article less informative.

I am shortly making a request to delete User:Mansoor Ijaz. I would therefore request that you revert the deletion of the images. If necessary, I can also withdraw my permission as the uploader and author of the photographs in question, if that will help. Thank you for helping me to understand how the Wiki project works.

@NeilN: 20:18, 18 March 2014 (GMT) I would disagree with your opinion that the Quantum/Lotus transaction is not in the public interest (but defend your right to that opinion). The transaction has been widely reported in the sporting press and has attracted a lot of hearsay and conjecture by other commentators. Wikipedia's strict npov guidelines mean that it is an ideal place for to present just the facts that are currently known. If the revised paragraphs that I recently sought to add are too detailed perhaps a shorter summary would be acceptable? --User:Ryuichinaruhodo(talk)

St PatrickSt Patrick was related to St David, they were both from Wales. Great Britain never existed as a country also back then. The Kingdom of Great Britain resulted from the union of the kingdoms of England (comprising modern-day England and Wales) and Scotland in 1707. You could say he was born in Romano/Britain, it would be more historically accurate. {Ryangiggs69|Ryangiggs69}

I see what happened I went to reply and windows 8 must have deleted the post I was replying to, but strangely, I did not see the post reply when I was replying. But I replied. It would make no sense to have my reply and then delete the original message, I was replying to. The text must have been sucked up and deleted, but yet, I did not see the text there either at the time. I only recalled the post having read it last night, but was too tired to reply and the next morning it was gone. But, I replied even though I could not see it at the time. I think windows 8 selects text and then if you hit a backspace it deletes, but it did not happened on my watch. It must have occurred sometime in between last night and my reply. If I had known it was gone, I would have reinstated it before replying. I don't want to look like I am having an insane conversation with myself online. Thanks for fixing it.

I am sorry that it has taken me so long to figure out how to get here to talk to you, Sir. I have been working on this page since December 2009. Elena Salvatore made this page for me then and we have talked via phone and emails. I have had a terrible time with it but of late I have been trying my best to correct the errors of these past few years and am almost done, Sir. I sent Elena my notes. I do apologize for the 'Dad' but in my frame of mind, I was writing about my father and I realize that that was wrong. I tried to correct all that, Neil. I hope I have. I have one more edit suggestion and that is this: Where I have George married Marjorie in Springfield, Illinois in 1947, I think it should go on to say they had two children Michael Patrick 1950 and Robert Anthony 1951. Then perhaps it should say that in 1961 they adopted a third child Flora Beth. I haven't read the page today as I am at the Library and am working on my patent for my star, Neil. I will do that another day. Thank you for your notes. I appreciate the work you all at wiki have done for me, my father, and my family. Would you mind emailing me at [email protected]?

New page for your olympics editsHi NeilN: Last week on Monday I asked User:Sla and Basal to look at the skating page you were editing and I hope it helped. Your comment on the Talk page there seemed to suggest that there was too much in the "debate" subsection, especially since the Gold and Silver medals are not in official dispute. Since that is the case, then the support and oppose subsections start to look like fan-sites for the skaters A.S. and Yuna Kim, respectively, and not a Wikipage for reporting the official award of the medals at the Olympics. My question is, should those subsections be moved to a separate new Page for the demi-controversy's growing support-oppose comments. Here is the example from the 2002 Olympics which did have a genuine Controvery/Scandal and its own Wikipage:"2002 Winter Olympics figure skating scandal". In either case, I would support you for shortening the subsections (or least limiting them to equal shorter sizes) as you seemed to already suggest doing on the Talk page there.

Possible Page Protections Necessary for Street Artists Program ArticleThe problems that you have witnessed on the Street Artists Program of San Francisco article are still continuing. Please read Clark’s verbose excerpt from the article's talk page [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Street_Artists_Program_of_San_Francisco#Disruptive_Replacement_of_Sourced_Facts_with_Personal_Recollections ]. William Clark continues to repetitively delete the same sourced statements, and continues to post under a number of differing anonymous IP addresses while refusing to register with Wikipedia. His deletion of statements sourced from newspaper articles directly violates the most basic of Wikipedia's rules, and it seems that we need to resort to some sort of page protection for that article, to stop his persistent edit warring which approaches the level of virtual vandalism. Do you know any admins or individuals who we could recruit for some page protection for this article, as it exist for the Baseball article?

All the additions were uncited and previously in the 'Public Opinions' section on the Figure skating at the 2014 Winter Olympics – Ladies' singles page. That section was removed per talk page & consensus. Given only one user advocated for this section's inclusion and the edit summary ("just added some edits that kirin13 kept on deleting...."), it makes me suspicious that anonymous user is an editor who's currently blocked.

Clark to put an end to Mr. Carroll's nonsense that I am refusing to register with Wikipedia in order to post under a number of differing anonymous IP addresses. Also, on the talk page for the Street Artists Program of San Francisco article I cited MANY news articles supporting my assertion that the one source cited by Mr. Carroll was in error when it stated CAO Thomas Mellon was given the authority to run the original SF Street Artists Program in March, 1972. I would appreciate it if you would check the sources I cited so that the incorrect statement about CAO Mellon running the original SF Street Artists Program can be deleted from the article as soon as possible. On the talk page, I also quoted directly from the source cited by Mr. Carroll regarding Joy McCoskey's statement showing her support for the midnight to 6 AM rule in order to show that what Mr. Carroll wrote was inaccurate and misleading and that Ms. McCoskey's statement was tangential and inconsequential to the history of the SF Street Artists Program. Therefore, it should be deleted from the article. I would appreciate it if you would read what I wrote on the talk page and please honor my request. William J.

My role is as CEO of the first Cannabis Medicine company in Australia, hence my interest tascann.com.au If in time it becomes more prominent (as the video is currently very new) can we consider including on the page?

AyurvedaI think it should be noted somewhere on the whole page. I don't know what is the problem with the word "recognized", because those sources uses the word "recognized". No argument that it is a alternative medicine, but like I said that NIH and WHO recognized it to be legit. There are many sources about it. You can suggest better idea, I think.

Good MorningGood Morning NeilN (talk) Sorry for what i did .Tylkrby767 (talk) 12:21, 25 April 2014 (UTC) ![]() I Really Don't Appreciate You Stalking my Edits!Hello NeilN,
It seems you are not very knowledgeable in this subject and if not for stalking me, the Seyed Khalil Alinejad article is one that you most probably would have never known of or cared about. So as someone who likes this artist and knows quite about this talented artist I am much more knowledgeable in this subject. The theory that the government killed him is not the predominating belief to his death, and this claim is often circulated by those who have problems and don't agree with the Iranian government, it is more of a political stance than a valid theory to his death. I am not a staunch supporter of the government either however this theory is baseless and even in the article you referred to (in the case you actually read it) you would have noticed it offers no reason behind the claim and simply mentions it once; the same goes for both claims. Therefore Wikipedia articles (especially biographies) should not have speculations that would confuse readers and have no factual basis.
Once again NeilN you have failed to read the source, it says "It was also borne by a son of Ali, the fourth caliph" what does this mean? It means the Ali ibn Abi Talib had a son named Abbas, we all know Ali ibn Abi Talib had only one son that was named Abbas and he was Abbas ibn Ali. I have no reason to lie about this subject. In Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Bahrain and other Middle Eastern countries anyone with the name Abbas is named after Abbas ibn Ali! I have many friends and know many people in my community named Abbas, ask them what's behind their name... they will all say they are named after Abbas ibn Ali the son of Imam Ali and brother of [{{Hussain ibn Ali]]. Sometimes its hard to find sources for information like this, especially when so general. I feel as if this info is very relevant to the article and it would be to Wikipedia own benefit to contain this info.
@Hooperag: - interesting assertion about Abbas ibn Ali (647-680 CE). Could you tell me who was Al-‘Abbas ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib (566–653 CE) named after then? Was the Abbasid Caliphate named after the older or the younger Abbas? I'm gonna make an educated guess that your assertion is wrong. As Neil puts it, personal knowledge is not what Wikipedia is built on. Green Giant supports NonFreeWiki (talk) 16:31, 29 April 2014 (UTC) You can believe whatever you want, however what you say is not true and I swear what I have mentioned above is entirely true. I can't find sources because the name Abbas is largely unknown to the Western World and so there is little info on its history and such. Revert my edits if you like, it's not going to make me frustrated, what makes me frustrated is your inability to think outside of Wikipedia guidelines. You have your own mind and rather than constantly accusing me of lying you could think for yourself and realize what would be my benefit for lying, ad then try to cooperate with me to solve this issue mutually.
While it is hard to find a source, I will continue looking for one. Also I appreciate your recent attempt to work in a cooperative manner with me. It is much nicer than having people work against you and constantly telling you are doing things wrong. I don't have a problem with Wikipedia policies, however it can be frustrating when many of your edits (with constructive intentions) are undone by editors who continuously cite Wikipedia policies as their justification. I will work to find a source and add it soon.
HSBC EditHi Neil. Thanks for the message, however, the data that I have provided is completely true and factual data along with proper citations without having any bias nature. I also mentioned the detail of Employee for the sake of citation (I will remove that from the talk page so that it does not have COI), and that too in the talk forum and not at the main article. The details that I have provided can be checked and yes I have cited the correct links. Please recheck prior to reverting the edits, as I have checked my data, and did not give my own opinion on the same. The data I provided was for reference and hence is completely unbiased. I am reverting the same to my actual edited version mate. Thank You. If you require please do check the links I provided. Thanks again for the update mate.

Others if they wish, can look to see how much time you spent looking at both sides, and waiting until the arguments pro and con appeared, before you did your first reversion.

Please also note in closing, at the articles Talk page, "not dave"'s ESL apology under Note, in removing… Talk section (today, earlier).

First, I would like to remind you of your offer to others to being open to having civil conversations with someone that is coming to you for help. So your sarcastic comment is not appreciated nor will it go unnoticed. I am new to this cite. I am simply trying to ask for your assistance not for your personal tones of you thinking that you are more knowledgable than others on all topics. I have cited many sources. They are books, the classic type of where people go to to look for information. Also, if you understand this particular area of royalty, it is not one that is well-known in the present day. The point of me looking into this subject is to discover the facts that are not as well-known as others and bringing them to people's attention. If you would like to read the books, I will be happy to provide you with the page numbers. Thank you for your time and I do hope that you will reply in a more civil way next time or I do ask that you refrain from responding.

Hi Wikipedia, Thank you for taking down that horrible Conoco article down from my Dad's Wikipedia page. Unfortunately, the negative article caused much angst amongst myself and my family, and my updating the site was merely an attempt to give a more balanced review of a great and fantastic human being. The negative article should never have been posted and I am surprised that Wikipedia allowed it to stay on his page so very long. It would really been wonderful if we could have spoken to someone sooner about the problem via telephone, alas no such listing was available. Nevertheless the horrible article has been removed -- but someone now should remove the link to the footnote which has the entire Conoco article. Thanking you in advance. Very Best Regards,

Mars - OneHey NeilN, I have been refering to wikipedia for a long but only recently I have decided to contribute to it. Since I have just started ; I have certain doubts. I have been trying to add a sub section (5.1 Mars-one mission) in Mars page. I have provided a link to the website of Mars-One. Now for certain reasons it is not being updated. Reason #1 : Do you have a source to prove the notability and significance of this mission and why it needs its own section? Scarlettail (talk) 15:30, 9 May 2014 (UTC) Wikipedia carries a seperate page about Mars-One. If the mission is insignificant then should not the wikipedia page about mars-one be removed?

Your recent revert on UkraineHi NeilN: You appear to have reverted an edit inadvertently placed on the non-autoconfirmed edit approval buffer because the buffer was not empty when I placed my edit. As I am an autoconfirmed editor, I was entitled to have my edit posted as an autoconfirmed edit. This is part of a BRD discussion which has been opened on the Talk page at Ukraine over the week-end and should last another 48-72 hrs before a neutral admin closes out the BRD. Everyone wants a short and concise version of the subsection and this "BRD" version is only there for the remaining time of the BRD. I am assuming that this was an oversight on your part and that as fellow auto-confirmed editor you would repost the BRD revert according to longstanding BRD policy that any editor may revert another edit as long as Talk page BRD is opened. It was certainly opened and you can double check this. You are of course welcome to join the BRD and post your opinions of support-oppose on the enumerated list I have supplied there, it would be good to get your input. As I said, the BRD version I posted was only for the purposes of the review of all fellow editors to decide which items to retain at the end of the BRD and which to delete. May I ask for you to repost my edit as a fellow auto-confirmed user and I welcome your joining the BRD. FelixRosch (talk) 19:05, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

I am surprised that you say there is a preference for a journalistic opinion over the judgment of the House of Lords. Are you sure that is what is preferred? Justmauritius (talk) 19:08, 15 May 2014 (UTC) In fact on 13th April 2014 you said "Single opinion pieces should not trump court findings and suchlike" so I am really perplexed. Justmauritius (talk) 19:12, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
Sorry but I think you are not correct on this point. The transcript and depositions of a legal case are primary source, the judgment is the interpretation and application by the learned court and a press article is one person's reflection and opinion concerning the interpretation by the judges. I would have expected Wikipedia to be more interested to post the learned report of the court as fact than the (sometimes) inept opinion or inaccurate report of a journalist. After all you will have read that Dhooharika went to prison for his report! No offence can be committed by posting a public document of pure fact. Please consider the eloquent and intelligent reasoning and analysis in the judgment as compared to the more superficial headlining by a journalist. I come to Wikipedia to research facts and dig into the detail, I do not want to read the media sensationalism I want to have the combined benefit of five Law Lords and over 200 years of legal experience and I am sure many other readers would want the same. Is there a means by which you can take legal opinion on this point or escalate my assertions? Justmauritius (talk) 19:46, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
Incidentally, this [20] press report by a barrister was used as my citation for "Arbitrary Arrest in Mauritius" and also got struck out. Can you explain that one? I do not mind you being correct but I do mind you being inconsistent! Justmauritius (talk) 20:29, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
OK, so now this is a different issue you have raised? I saw there was a "need for citation" so I provided a citation, if it had said there was a "need for citation and some text to integrate it into the article" I would have done it! Nevertheless, as I am a novice at WIKI, I will try to conform! I have now added some text to my edit and left the judgment and press article by a barrister as the citations. If this now ticks your boxes then I can go through and amend the other edits in the same way? Justmauritius (talk) 14:12, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
Why have anything specific indeed, why not just stick to banal generalities? Because Mauritians are people who do not want to promote ignorance. There are many articles on Wiki that refer to specific examples. Alternatively, the article could be put on the Mauritius page under rule of law where the information currently posted is wrong and not supported by factual information. Do you have anything constructive and helpful to say to a new contributor so these items can be posted? Justmauritius (talk) 17:27, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Imran KhanHello, The page of the political leader Mr. Khan is probably being continously edited by his political friends and fans. The incident I qouted in a neutral way had been on the Wikipedia page until recently. The incident is 100% famous and has made headlines all over the country several times. The matter was under scrunity in a court in California which ruled that Imran had fathered Sita White's child. Khan has still not challenged the ruling and in fact his ex-wife is still the child's guardian (sincr ofcourse Khan himself cannot take responsibility if he has to remain in Pakistani politics). Can you make that incident a permenant part of the page since his fans have been editing it out again and again citing it is baseless. Ruling from a California court is baseless. And need I remind that rumours which are very famous are present on the wikipedia page of many celebraties. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yousha hashmi (talk • contribs) 05:25, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
Does that mean that once someone is an experienced editor he can protect political leaders from any criticism on his wikipedia page and make him look like a saint? That's great. And the thing about talk page is that even if i give a hundred credible sources SmSarmad would not accept any of them and continue eradicating every criticism on the page. Cheers.
For the record Khan did not challenge a word the opposing lawyers said nor did he challenge the court's ruling. By the way if I add better and more credible sources that such a "rumour" exists would I be following the Wikipedia guidelines for editing content? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yousha hashmi (talk • contribs) 12:40, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

Arrogant and rude.You truly are an arrogant and rude individual. I have added comments to "Cerro San Luis Obispo" as a 7th generation resident of San Luis Obispo, CA. Someone who has studied and lived local history for over 50 years. Yet you term my input as "personal analysis or synthesis into articles" which is not allowed? Compared to what exactly? An article in the local paper written by someone who has little knowledge of San Luis Obispo or perhaps someone from far away that happens to get published in another form? Utter hubris. Pure bunkum. You should be ashamed of yourself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dataproducts (talk • contribs) 06:32, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

Regarding you Inlusion of ahmadiyyah concept in Islamic ProphetsHi, Ahmadiyya is not the same as different sects in Christianity. This is becasue Ahmadiyya believe in another prophet after Prophet Muhammad (God bless him). This is more like adding Christianity to Judaism because Jews don’t believe in Jesus. Or adding Islam to a Christianity topic because Christians don’t believe in Muhammad. The fundamental source of the religion (i.e., The prophet and his definition are different) This I think is an attempt to disfigure the teachings of the religion of Islam. Ahmadiyya don’t even make 1% in comparison to Muslims. Making their view more central in this article is a misrepresentation of Islam. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.26.134.201 (talk) 20:17, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
You reverted one of my edits..Hi NeilN. You reverted one of my edits on the page "Education in Pakistan." May I ask why? I did not see anything wrong with my edits. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Justacitizenoftheworld (talk • contribs)
But that is giving an incorrect perception of what the science of evolution truly says and I simply pointing that. How is that personal commentary? I think it still stays relevant to the article.
I never removed that part. I simply added "This is an incorrect interpretation of the science of evolution but a common one" after it. Though I will admit I did remove the part after that. Maybe I should not have done that.
Sorry I'm confused. You say I should let both original parts remain but I can also add my piece of text right? Because that is what I am perceiving. I apologize if I perceiving what you mean wrong or incorrectly.
OK. Thank you for clearing that misconception. Have a good day or good night. Muhammed as Antichrist.Hello NeilN, the reason of removal. Is someone calling the AntiChrist relevant to the subject here? Christians have numereous people named the anti-christ. You can cut and paste what I removed under the section Anti Christ. The article is about where you can find or see Muhammed/Ahmad in the bible. Not about claims of being the anti-christ. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.208.73.234 (talk) 22:22, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
Various religions or certain people of the religion? When you say. "Muhammed in the Bible" as your Chapter it is not "Anti-Christ in the bible". The Koran is Linked through some passages one-on-one to some passages in the bible.(That should be shown here regardless of your opinion) Not of the interpretation of some Christian priest/pastor/monks thinks how to understand some passages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.208.73.234 (talk) 22:53, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

Taking quite in interest in this page all of the sudden? the person you ask for help tries to start an editing war? Whilst one point may be valid it is being taken to the extreme.

The 'Phd' is the exact point as I say above I believe to be valid. So fair play on that. The "other name" is not used in any way shape of form, so that (im my opinion) was a good judgement. I shall bring the "review" up on the talk page. I am interested why only negative reviews of all works are presented whilst several 'positive in nature' are available.

Bihar PageHi, a major portion of the Bihar page introduction has been deleted. Last day I had reverted to old version (through IP 42.104.1.11) but you have reverted back. Please look into it and revert back to my edit. Manoj nav (talk) 09:39, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi, 49.204.79.55 had edited introduction ( http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bihar&diff=607889789&oldid=607749296 ) with a comment "arrangement of sections". I don't think this was appropriate as this was a major edit and he didn't discuss this on the talk page. The paragraph has been well referred. Manoj nav (talk) 07:25, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi, The introduction was discussed here below,and have been accepted by people for a long time. The new edits completely deletes the second para. THey contain important information to under Bihar. They are not promotional in any sense. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Bihar/Archive_1#Someone_has_edited_the_introduction_without_discussion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Bihar/Archive_1#Intro_is_again_unencyclopedic_and_too_long Manoj nav (talk) 11:01, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi, Is there any rule which says old discussions expires? I have not intention of making a promotional introduction. And I am more then happy if someone makes any constructive contribution to the article. This I am saying as being part of wikipedia Bihar team. Thank you for editing to the introduction. Would you mind if we discuss this on Bihar talk page as this would be accessible to other people as well. Manoj nav (talk) 04:23, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
Bernie Goetz reversion (un-bolding names)Not sure why you reverted my edits where I bolded the parties' names to make it easier to quickly find what's happened to each character since the incident. I guess I could break the section down into further subsections. But since each would be pretty small, I thought just bolding each person's name at the start of the update for that person would be better form. Either way, unless it violates some rule, I don't see why you spent the effort to undo something to make the information more quickly accessible. Phantom in ca (talk) 21:13, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for that - I didn't realise there was a conlfict of interest guideline. One question, if I may? Even if the citation is accurate / relevant, is it automatically breaking guidelines as it's our own website? I only ask because throughout Wiki there are dozens of links to outdated articles created by a company called Clickz, which they clearly added themselves. I wondered whether it was the sheer quality of the referenced material which justified them being there ? Thanks again.
Sure - I'll take a look and list them here. I would appreciate an answer to my question though, I'm trying to learn. Much appreciated.

I have now made the changes. When presenting your arguments, I suggest that you also take into consideration the entire discussion. Au contraire, the editor to whom I was responding has failed to investigate any of the evidence I have present with regard to the content of the page. You should further investigate this editor for his biased actions, in addition to the way in which he is trying to have a page falsely removed to seemingly fulfill his own biased agenda. Additionally, he has made personal comments about parenting aimed at me in responses to my arguments that were put forth pertaining to direct evidence for the second time. He has also purposely avoided checking the validity of other articles uploaded immediately next to my uploads. You should probably investigate this, too!
