London Bus Companies
Hi there, Your edits that you have done to a number of London Bus companies have undone alot of hard work by several members (including me) that I feel means you are removing parts that are important to a page. I also do not recognise your profile, which leads me to say that these are your first edits on this topic. Please could you keep unnecessary edits to a minimum, please. Thanks. --Tommietomato (talk) 21:46, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

I am simply asking you, why are you doing these edits, as it is undoing alot of hard work!! --Tommietomato (talk) 07:41, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I am removing original research and unencyclopedic detail which does not belong on Wikipedia. All content here should have a reliable secondary source. That kind of detail belongs at Wikia.--Charles (talk) 09:39, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Kingdom of Pontos and Barbaros Pasha
you removed this part from Mithridatic Wars;

"many Roman soldiers were poisoned by honey made from the flowers of Rhododendron ponticum by Pontic Greeks."

Well, do you know anything about "Deli Bal" which means "Mad-Honey". made from flowers of Rhododendron Ponticum. this honey from Pontos -modern day Black Sea Region of Turkey-. Mithridates Dionysius known as "Poison King" He used this honey as weapon agains Roman army. Pontic Greeks put Mad-Honey to roadside of Romans and Roman soldiers ate that honey and they lost many soldiers in Pontos Region.

a part from Rhododendron page

Toxicology

"Some species of rhododendron are poisonous to grazing animals because of a toxin called grayanotoxin in their pollen and nectar. People have been known to become ill from eating honey made by bees feeding on rhododendron and azalea flowers. Xenophon described the odd behavior of Greek (about Ten Thousand mercenary) soldiers after having consumed honey in a village surrounded by Rhododendron ponticum during the march of the Ten Thousand in 401 BC. Pompey's soldiers reportedly suffered lethal casualties following the consumption of honey made from Rhododendron deliberately left behind by Pontic forces in 67 BC during the Third Mithridatic War."

also Barbaros Pasha can not be Albanian he was from Island of Lesbos. his mother pure Greek and his father was probably Greek too but some Turkish sources says his father was Turkish. and same for Aruj Reis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RumPontos (talk • contribs) 23:22, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * You need to cite reliable sources for the text you add and give a reason in the edit summary box so that other editors can see why you are doing it, then it will probably not be removed. Rhododendron ponticum is an invasive species in the United Kingdom too.--Charles (talk) 09:48, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Benazir and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Why Zia ul-Haq was mentioned as prime minister of Pakistan. He wasn't prime minister of pakistan he was president of Pakistan. I have checked it all from the List of Prime Ministers of Pakistan and he isn't there but he is in the List of Presidents of Pakistan. Information was wrong.--Mannerheim (talk) 09:35, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry if I was in error. It is difficult to keep up with the POV-pushing on that page.--Charles (talk) 12:51, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

"Reverted to revision 456626012 by Multan47: restored better version" thanks for that positive edit, whilst I am mindful of POV. I think some user are attempting to pass of newspaper editorials as facts. I always try to present things in Such and such did XYZ but the Right said that was bad because ABC whilst the left said that was good because HJK. The other user seems to think if anyone does not agree with him and his bad spelling the page should become "protected " so now one but him can edit Appreciate your edits on that page thankyou --Multan47 (talk) 16:18, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
