Response to concerns so far!
Hello, new to editing, so may have put this comment for Codf1977 in the wrong place:

>>> Thanks for removing the previous page with missing refs. I'm now putting in all the correct info and references along with the new content we have. A little explanation: the content was drawn up by an independent journalist working on behalf of Cass and initially added by a member of the Cass team. Its now been passed on to me, a City University student to resolve the missing ref problems.

PS There shouldn't be any conflict of interest issues as Cass haven't written any of the new content and I'm just updating the page with what I have. >>>

As for the issue with the username, I'll set up a new account tomorrow for further revisions to the page. I hope this is all OK, but happy to discuss further. Again, there shouldn't be any ongoing issues with COI as the journalist was hired specifically to cleanup the old content and make it more encyclopaedic.
 * There is no need to set up a new account, you can simply file a user name change request at WP:CHU/S. Codf1977 (talk) 16:20, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
