Copied text

The general, unfootnoted text that this article keeps being replaced with is a copyvio; it can be found in the cited newspaper article about the 2014 festival and also here on Facebook. Yngvadottir (talk) 15:35, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

Promotion reverted

I've reverted all of todays edits by IP 212, because they were generally very promotional and, secondly, left the article formatting in a mess. To be honest, it sounded like something that had been copied word-for-word from somewhere. IP 212 may have found some additional okay magazine sources but I'd advisethem to word things more neutrally in future and preview their changes before saving them.

It looks like IP 212 was trying to use these 2014 magazine sources in Blouin Artinfo, Whitewall magazine and W magazine. I'd point out that W Magazine is one of the collaborators of Istancool, so should be treated with caution. Sionk (talk) 13:48, 17 September 2014 (UTC)

Yes, they were using the same copyrighted press-release text that I referred to in the above section, but this time tried to work it in, with wikilinks and keeping some of the history material. I don't know why the insistence on using this press release; I've considered semi-protecting the article, but this attempt was better. Thanks for reverting.
