Talk:Memphis River Parks Partnership

On Reversing TJonesMfs's Edits
I want to handle this in a civil manner. Before doing anything, read this post.

Three days ago, user TJonesMfs made huge changes to this article. They deleted essentially everything in the article's body and added new information. Whereas the original body (which I wrote and which users Bearcat and Monkbot later tweaked) cited a large number of sources, the new info added in its palce by TJonesMfs cited only one source (that source was the MRPP's webpage).

I find it particularly interesting that all references to the controversies surrounding the MRPP were deleted. Information about the dispute between the MRPP and the Memphis in May festival was erased, as well as mentions of the MRPP being caught dumping mud into the Mississippi River without a permit and how various locals have reported Tom Lee Park's poor, unkempt state. I'm not going to sugarcoat it, I think this was an act of censorship. TJonesMfs's edits read like an advertisement and scrubbed away everything that might paint the MRPP in a non flattering light. It all seems too suspicious to me.

I must also note TJonesMfs's strange edit summary. After making their dramatic changes, they wrote "To conform to history of this organization [sic] - this page had been edited to be one-sided". This reasoning perplexes me. Was this some kind of joke or prank?

Perhaps I am wrong, and TJonesMfs had the best of intentions. If that's true, and this wasn't censorship or vandalism, I am sorry. But please, next time, if you're gonna make such a dramatic edit, let others know on the Talk page first.

I will be getting in touch with some Wikipedia higher ups. I want them to keep an eye on this page.

Cheers, TazKoala
