Disambiguation link notification for December 28
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Snow Business (company), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Western Mail (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Deletion of legitimate entries
In future perhaps you might want to stop and think that there is person behind a username on Wikipedia. You do not know anything about me or why I choose to edit particular entries.

I will tell you the story behind my foodbank entries. My 13 year old son has been doing a project on this topic at school. He was chosen to be the pupil to find out information on foodbanks for the rest of the class. We were very proud of him when he managed to search on the internet and find that Jack Monroe has done a lot of campaigning on this issue. He then had the wherewithal to contact Ms Monroe and was very excited when she replied sending him the list of all the MPs who voted against the investigation into hunger and foodbank use.

He has just started learning about the internet in his IT classes and wanted to add the entries to the Wikipedia pages himself. I didn’t allow him to do this but he excitedly sat beside me and watched me update all the MPs pages.

Imagine his bafflement and disappointment when on Sunday all the entries had disappeared and I had to pretend that I had made a mess of the whole thing. Imagine that I HAD allowed him to update the pages himself and imagine if he had got to school on Monday to tell all his friends what he had done. Then imagine he had told his IT teacher who may then have said “well done, let’s have a look at some of the web pages shall we”? A search would then have shown that there was nothing there and he would have looked an utter fool in front of all his classmates and his teacher.

I find it odd that you should be so upset over this and somehow not want the world to know that 296 MPs voted against a motion that would have helped to understand why foodbank use has mushroomed and what we as a society can do to help these unfortunate people. I have put a factual entry on those MPs pages and would be grateful if you could leave it on there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Over the Orwell (talk • contribs) 21:58, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
 * You first added the information to the page of your bête noire, Ben Gummer, on 5 January. A week later you began adding it to other MP's biographies. You did this without providing any context and without regard for their voting history on any other issue. You may benefit from reading an essay here at Wikipedia called Advocacy, particularly:"Good intentions do not excuse actual disruption. If a significant number of editors protest that an editor is biased, the editor should listen to feedback and either change their editing style, or refrain from editing topics where they cannot be sufficiently neutral."

Revert Changes James Dyson
Hi Black,

I already provide the source citation. Why the heck you revert it w/o good reasons ?

You sir one among of the reasons why many new wikipedians left ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thatonewikiguy (talk • contribs) 13:56, 18 January 2014‎
 * I reverted it because your writing was so bad that it didn't clearly explain the incident. The paragraph that you added also did not accurately reflect the reference that you cited. There was no mention of Laurie Millam in the source, for example. The source also pre-dated the conclusion of the 3-year lawsuit. And you, sir, are one of the reasons why so many older, better and more experienced Wikipedians have left. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Nairn and Cullen
It is OK to not list Cullen as a co-author, and I respect the intention of the change, but not indicating that there were other contributors is to overstate the facts. As a senior editor at the Architectural Review, Cullen was a contributor, illustrator, and editor of Outrage and Counter-Attack. He was senior to Nairn in his tenure at the Architectural Review and was key in launching the Townscape column in 1949. "Outrage" and "Counter-Attack" were first issues of the magazine; magazines are not authored by individuals. Nairn may have been a primary author of the text, but he was not a solo author and the magazines/books were not his work alone. Nb. This page needs a whole section on "The Townscape Movement". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.5.125.50 (talk) 12:43, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
